Just being curious here, what if you apply early and get accepted to two college, one of them is early desicion and the otger is early action.
What if you refuse to go the college with the early desicion ?
The only reason you can turn down an ED offer is if the finances don’t work out. Then you’re free to go to any other school.
You, your parents, and your guidance counselor must sign an contract if you apply ED at a college. You can only refuse an ED acceptances if the school doesn’t offer sufficient aid. Take the time to read the rules carefully and if you have any questions go over the procedure with your guidance counselor.
I would caution against applying ED anywhere unless 1) the school is your absolute top choice and 2) you have no need to compare financial offers.
My S’s top school had an EA option only so he did not apply ED anywhere.
