ED and EA

<p>Can anyone explain the difference with early decision and early admission. My major question is with early decision. If you do get accepted with ED is it a contract that you MUST go to cornell or can you change you mind and attend a different University. And with EA does anyone know the date that you must summit this in your junior year.</p>

<p>ED - You must go to Cornell. Yes, you sign the contract before applying. I think you have to pay $10,000 (or something like that) or show "Serious financial trouble" to get out of not going to Cornell. Only apply Cornell if it's your No.1 choice and your DREAM school.</p>

<p>I don't think Cornell has EA.</p>

<p>Yeh i check cornell does but it say you must get permission from the head of the college you wish to attend i wasn't goign ot do that anyhow i just wanted to know how it works. Thanks tho</p>

<p>how much does ED increase your chance of acceptance for an international?</p>
