<p>Do colleges see your first semester senior year grades if you're applying early? Isn't the midyear report sent after first semester?</p>
<p>I’m not exactly sure but a student from my school got into MIT (early decision) couple days before Christmas. So I’m assuming they won’t see your first semester grades until after they make their decisions.</p>
<p>You mean early action right?^ I’m pretty sure MIT only has early action…</p>
<p>Nope, colleges won’t see your first semester grades if you’re applying EA/ED. Some may ask for first quarter, depending on the school. </p>
<p>And yes, MIT has early action, not early decision.</p>
<p>Also (forgot to add), you’ll have to send first semester (to some schools) and second semester (to wherever you end up attending) grades at some point, just not before getting a decision EA/ED.</p>
<p>Yeah, typo …</p>
<p>so if you’re taking very rigorous courses will colleges defer admissions during EA just to wait and see what your grades in those classes will be?</p>
