<p>I applied to a private university early decision, and I have until November 30th to request that my application be changed to regular decision. At the time, I thought that early decision was right for me, but now that I've been offered a full ride to another school, I am starting to have doubts. If I request that my application be changed to regular decision, will it look bad to the private college and to other schools? It is currently November 28 so I'm really pushing the deadline... Please help!</p>
<p>Just call them on Monday and have it changed to RD. They’re not going to care about “how it looks.” And you don’t have to make any explanations for the switch. Just ask then to move your application to the RD group.</p>
