Illegal... but strategic???

<p>I don't think most schools are SCEA at all. I think most are EA, no restrictions. I have no data to back this up, however, so I'll just put that out there.</p>

<p>However, "EA" does not mean you can't apply to other early programs; SCEA does, and ED can. That's all I was saying. :)</p>

<p>Harvard Yale and Stanford are the only single choice early action I believe.</p>

<p>Really? Wow.</p>

<p>Can people name EA programs other than Georgetown that are not SCEA?</p>

<p>Is U of Chicago ED or EA?</p>

<p>I believe it's EA.</p>

<p>EA for UChicago.</p>

<p>There are also many, many more. A very large number of universities have some sort of early application process; some have ED, some have EA, some (a small number -- I'm inclined to believe that ONLY Harvard, Yale and Stanford) have SCEA, some have ED I & II, some have EA & ED... and so on. So you'll just have to search school by school. :P</p>

<p>Well, there goes how much I know about EA/ED. </p>

<p>Only 1 of my schools were EA. The rest were RD.</p>

<p>Georgetown, Notre Dame, Cal Tech, MIT & Boston College are some of the better-known EA schools. From what I have heard, Georgetown does not like students who are applying ED someplace to apply EA to Georgetown at the same time. The SCEA schools obviously limit any other applications--the student applying SCEA can only apply to state universities with rolling admissions (and a few other special exceptions).</p>

<p>heh it would've been more strategic if he was applying EA everywhere (even to the single choice EA's) since they're all non-binding. but ED's a different story.</p>
