Dumb question about applying SCEA...

Applying to College
1

<p>I had a particular school in mind for SCEA, one school that I am desperately in love with, but under the foolish impression that it was binding, I decided I'd rather go for RD. Now that I realize this (seriously as of ten minutes ago), I want to apply SCEA.</p>

<p>To confirm, if anyone can let me know:
I am allowed to apply to any non-binding rolling admissions program (says the college). </p>

<p>So, if I were to apply at a school SCEA, it is still alright for me to apply to an Ivy, State School, and Other Awesome Schools RD even when I haven't heard back from the SCEA school yet?</p>

<p>I just want to get this straight so I don't make some epically stupid mistake that will change the course of my life forever. :/</p>

<p>ED is binding. EA is by definition non-binding. The SC part restricts where you can apply early or rolling, but NOT where you apply RD. </p>

<p>Yes, you can apply to any RD schools before EA decisions come out in Dec. It’s a good idea to work on the RD applications and have everything submitted or ready to go when EA decisions are released.</p>
