<p>if i apply to duke early decision (the deadline is november 1st) and get rejected or deferred (i'll know by december), then can i apply ED to wake forest? (the deadline is january 1st for wake)</p>

<p>i haven't been able to find the answer to this question. i would think the answer is yes, but i'm not sure so...</p>

<p>I think so, since by the time you apply to wake forest, you’ve already been deferred from Duke. I would call both admission offices to ask just in case.</p>

<p>If you get rejected or deferred after applying ED to a college, you can apply ED to another college.</p>

<p>Yeah, what the above posters said. If you’re rejected/deferred by Duke, then you can apply ED to Wake Forest.</p>

<p>massgirl - I was actually going to suggest that strategy to you yesterday - on your thread comparing Duke and Wake - but figured you were already aware of that option since you mentioned you were working with a college counselor. You would get your decision from Duke on Dec. 15th - so if you are not accepted - you still have time to apply either ED or RD to Wake Forest. I don’t know if need-based FA factors into your plans - but if so - I will mention to you that Wake Forest strongly discourages students who need FA from applying ED.</p>

<p>thanks everyone for confirming that it is indeed allowed. i’m not applying for financial aid so fa doesn’t factor into my plans.</p>
