<p>I've heard of EDI and EDII. I thought you were only able to apply to one college as an early decision? I'd like to apply to Syracuse as early decision, I think, but if I have another ED option that would be great too.
Anybody care to fill me in?</p>
<p>ED I is the first deadline, generally around Nov. 1/15, reply mid-December. ED II is generally Jan. 1/15. If you get into your ED I school, you're done. ED II gives you a second chance. If you're deferred or rejected by your ED I school, you are released from your pledge to go there, so you are free to apply to a different school ED II. Then if you get into your ED II school, you're bound to go there.</p>
<p>These must be done serially. You can't have two open ED applications at once.</p>
<p>Does this help?</p>
<p>I decided a little late that Colby was my first choice, and took more time to make visits, before deciding do apply EDII. Its not just if youre rejected EDI from a school.</p>
<p>Good point! I'm sorry; I'm so used to kids applying both ED I and then II. Didn't mean to forget you!</p>
