<p>Congrats to all you new Hokies! @looneytoons, what do you mean by non-binding early action? Tech only offers binding early decision or regular decision.</p>

<p>@NJProParent‌ They offer non-binding EA to people who participate in certain programs through the university prior to applying. I did one of those programs last year, so I got to apply early and received my admissions decision in October.</p>
