<p>I have some senior friends that applied to more than one school EA. I thought that EA meant that you can only apply to one school early but if accepted you can apply to as many schools that you want RD. Can you apply to as many schools as possible EA?</p>
<p>Yes. "True" EA means that you can apply to as many schools EA as you want, need not attend if admitted, and may also apply to as many schools RD as you want.</p>
<p>Such schools include Georgetown, Notre Dame. BC, MIT, U of Chicago, Caltech and many others.</p>
<p>Then there are the ED schools, where you can only apply to one, and you are bound to attend if admitted. (Princeton, Penn, Dartmouth, Cornell, Brown, Duke and many others.)</p>
<p>The new "hybrid" is "single-choice EA" - thus far only, Harvard, Stanford and Yale, I think - where you can only apply to one school early, but are not bound to attend and can apply elsewhere RD if you wish</p>
<p>it depends. certain schools, like u chicago and suny binghamton (and even wellesley, i think) allow you to do that. others, like harvard, yale, and stanford are single-choice EA and only let you do one.</p>
<p>okay thanks for clearing that up, I have only looked into Harvard and Yale's EA policy so thats why I was confused when I heard about the schools that they applied to.</p>
<p>how would a single-choice EA or ED school know if you applied to more than one early?</p>
<p>They might not, but if they found out they woiuld not be happy.</p>
