<p>EA is non-binding at Providence, correct?</p>
<p>I'm pretty sure that it is, but I just wanted to make sure...
I know some colleges have binding EA.</p>
<p>Yes, EA is absolutely non-binding at Providence College.</p>
<p>Isn't binding EA called ED (early decision)?</p>
<p>Not trying to be wise, just helping with semantics</p>
<p>While all EA programs are non-binding, there are now EA programs that are restrictive in terms of whether you can apply to more than one institution under an early program. I think this has caused some confusion.</p>
<p>Binding refers to the commitment to enroll...Restrictive refers to a limitation on early applications.</p>
<p>PC is both non-binding and non-restrictive.</p>
