Early Decision and Regular Admission

<p>My question is concerning the early decision and regular admission to any college (well i was looking at upenn. but i guess any is fine) Anyways, if youre (for example) applied for early decision and get rejected, is it possible to apply for regular admission for the same exact school?
Thanks!</p>

<p>Depends on the school, but generally not. Many schools with ED will defer some ED applicants, which gets them automatically considered with the RD pool.</p>

<p>I’m not aware of any school that will consider you for RD after a rejection at the EA/ED round. Some schools make an effort to reject or accept nearly everyone in the early round and others defer the majority to the RD round. If you are rejected, however, that is it.</p>
