Early decision allowed if already applied to rolling admission school?

<p>My D is deciding between two favorite schools. One is a private school offering ED and one is a big state U offering rolling admissions. If she applies to big state U now, can she also apply to the school offering ED by their 11/1 deadline?</p>

<p>I believe she can, but check with the school.</p>

<p>In almost all cases, the answer is yes. What she cannot do is apply to another school where admission is binding. And is she is accepted at the ED/EA school, she has to withdraw her other apps, including the state school admit (she has to tell them she isn’t going).</p>
