confusion about EA/ED

<p>in the college guidebooks I see that Rice has EA (although they are 1 or 2 years old). however, on the website it doesn't mention EA. does this mean that Rice doesn't have EA?</p>

<p>There used to be interim decision which was non-binding where you'd hear in February but Rice did away with after the 2007 admissions. Now, there's only early decision where you apply in November, hear in December and if you get in, you must go to Rice. So there is no more EA.</p>
