Getting out of the ED bond

<p>As mentioned on Stanford’s website, * Applicant is admitted and has until May 1 to respond to the admission offer.*</p>

<p>Is the case similar for Early Decisions? Do accepted students get a similar time period to respond to the offer?</p>

<p>Do you agree with the following statements?
Statement 1:
Acceptance of an early decision offer, does NOT intrinsically lead to a withdrawal of RD applications.</p>

<p>Statement 2:
Do not apply for ED if you’re looking for substantial amount of aid.</p>

<p>Statement 3:
SCEA at Yale and Stanford is actually disadvantageous for solid but not phenomenal applicants. [ A finding by Silverturtle, and a logical thought ] </p>

<p>Statement 4:
Schools of equal or similar stature share information about the applicants.</p>
