Harvard as Early Action

<p>Is it more difficult to get in in the Early Action option or at the regular date? in a way they also need to "commit" to accept me without seeing the rest of the applications, but on the other hand I show them that I am really interested.. good or bad idea? Tnx</p>

<p>Most people who apply EA do so as they are outstanding applicants thus the idea that applying EA will increase your chances is misleading. If you have been an exemplary student throughout you’re high school career definitely go for it. Good luck!</p>

<p>^ I agree with rfav32. The applicants in the EA pool tend to be more competitive, so I advise that you apply early only if you have outstanding GPA/test scores etc. Otherwise it may be a disadvantage to you because you may not stand out as much.
Check any data Harvard has released on test scores of admitted students and see if you are in the top range before deciding. Good luck and hope this helps!! ^^</p>

<p>Thanks you both!</p>
