<p>Could you apply lets say- ED johns hopkins university and SCEA stanford university???</p>
<p>Reply would be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>when you apply ED in general, you're not suppose to apply to any other schools ED, or any schools RD. So technically NO. </p>
<p>ED is for students who apply and WILL ATTEND the school if admitted regardless of financial aid concerns.</p>
<p>so i can only apply to Johns Hopkins then? and no other EA/ED/SCEA schools?</p>
<p>When you apply ED, you may be able to apply EA elsewhere; it'll depend on the specific universities in question, as policies vary. You cannot apply anywhere ED though, as ED is binding, and you can't attend two universities if accepted to both.</p>
<p>My understanding though is if you apply SCEA, you cannot apply early anywhere else. You can apply through rolling admission programs though, but not ED or EA (it's called "Single Choice" for a reason)</p>
<p>cuz i gotta tell my dad that.. that way i can focus on SAT 2s for November/December if i get deferred from ED at JHU... BIG IF... depends on test scores.</p>
<p>but its Single Choice Early ACTION... right? and Early DECISION isnt early ACTION theoretically :P lolzorz... ok because this is what im looking at right now in terms of where to apply:</p>
<p>Johns Hopkins University ED
Stanford SCEA
MIT EA
Caltech EA</p>
<p>so what do i do now... im only allowed to apply early at 1 university then?</p>
<p>i wont be applyin ED anywhere else... as i know its binding... but that doesnt stop me from EA right/ SCEA which is early action but single choice early action where i may have a ED school as well then?</p>
<p>You know MIT EA is open only to US citizens/permanent residents right?</p>
<p>Either way, take a look at the admissions websites of those schools; they should state their policies pretty clearly.</p>
<p>Edit: Looks like with Stanford you can not apply elsewhere early.

The</a> 4,503 students who chose to send early applications to Stanford could only apply early to Stanford. However, this is nonbinding in that the student may apply during the regular application cycle to other schools, and still has until May 1 to make a final decision.

So, you can apply:
Stanford
JHU + possibly MIT/Caltech
MIT + Caltech</p>
<p>Im US citizen, so im fine. THanks for link and info CDN Dancer! AWESOMENESS FOR YA HELP!</p>
<p>By the way, just checked on JHU's page, and you can apply EA elsewhere when you apply ED to JHU.</p>

The</a> Early Decision agreement is binding, so you may not apply to any other school under an early decision plan. (You may still apply to other schools under a nonbinding early action plan.)

<p>this means... SAT 2s for MIT+CalTech... in october... before EA admissions... darnit... that means if i frig up SAT 1 in june, i cant take in october... and will have to retry ACT (hopefully not, knock on wood) for september... just incase i do bad in june... thanks again CDN Dancer.</p>
<p>again, many thanks :D</p>
<p>According to Stanford's website:
[quote]
Restrictive/Single-Choice Early Action allows you to apply to as many colleges as you want under a regular admission timeframe, but it does require that you not submit an application to any school under another early decision, early action, or early notification program/plan
[/quote]
Therefore, you cannot apply early to Stanford and JHU. You can, however, apply early to JHU and other non-restrictive EA schools.</p>
<p>Check the websites of the colleges you want to attend. They will spell it out. (It took me less than 2 minutes to find this info on Stanford's site.)</p>
<p>As other helpful replies above have said, you have to check the website of EACH college you are thinking about applying to, and follow the rules of the most restrictive college on your application list. You can always apply to any number of colleges in the regular action round :) and usually can apply to one ED college, or exactly one SCEA college, but check and double-check the rules of all the colleges you are most interested in. Sometimes the rules change over the summer, so check again in late September to be really sure what you can do this fall.</p>
