<p>Schools that have Rolling Admissions give acceptances before ED acceptances. Does UW have Rolling Admissions?</p>

<p>First fall notification =/= ED</p>

<ol>
<li><p>First fall notification is not binding, ED is.</p></li>
<li><p>First fall notification gives decisions at the end of Jan, ED is usually mid Dec.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>Early Decision is when you apply to a college and if accepted (usually notified in December) you agree to attend and withdraw all other applications. Early Action is where a school provides an early decision, often in December, but you are not required to attend if admitted and can wait to here from other colleges before deciding. </p>

<p>UWisconsin actually has neither of those. It has something that is somewhat like early action that it calls First Fall Notification. Those who apply by Nov 1 get a decision at the end of Jan. Those who apply after Nov 1 get a decision at the end of March.</p>
