<p>If you get put into the 2nd pool with Early Decision and aren't rejected but aren't accepted, is it still binding?</p>
<p>Also, is ED II binding?</p>
<p>ED I and EDII are binding. If you are deferred from EDI you will be reconsidered with the RD applicants, not with ED II applicants. If you're deferred in an ED round and admitted RD, the decision is not binding.</p>
<p>^^what the above poster said is correct.</p>
