<p>Fordham has rolling.....I thought BC didn't but shouldn't of trusted princeton review.</p>
<p>UT-Austin
UNC-Chapel Hill</p>
<p>Umm please seperate the ones that are EA from ones that are rolling. There is a BIG difference. The SCEA or ED schools may forbif you from applying to the EAs, but they always allow rolling schools.</p>
<p>U Chicago -EA, University of Connecticut-Rolling/EA</p>
<p>not much of a choice.....oh dont forget Tulane</p>
<p>Is University of Maryland for EA any good if...say, ur applying ED Cornell?</p>
<p>depends on Cornells ED policy. If it is like most, it will say, "you can't be in another early program" so you couldn't do UMCP EA, but if it is like Dart's, which just says "you can't apply to any other school ED" then you can do EA at somewher else. check the cornell website</p>
<p>but hypothetically...is UMD a good choice? or is it too....."second tier"?</p>
<p>Cornell says anything that is not binding is ok(except SCEAP of course).</p>
<p>It is probably to '2nd tier' if that is how you put it. You are better off doing an EA at somewhere else, like MIT, or Chicago. Look around, also look at Interim Decision at Rice, it is just like EA, only a couple of weeks later deadline so it is legal no matter how you EA or ED. Depending on your stats, if you think you can get into Cornell, you probably won't need the EA at Maryland, unless they get Tufts syndrome. Maryland will prolly be your safety right, so don't worry about EAing there, unless your stats are midpack or worse at UMD.</p>
<p>Nah, i have a good chance at Cornell, but i want to maybe assure myself somewhere else in the NORTHEAST. So no Rice, but also no MIT, nore Chicago. There really isnt much of a choice.</p>
<p>O sure there are plenty of choices, you just haven't found them yet. I'm sure there is somewhere else in the NE that has EA. Plus, if you are a good Cornell candidate, you are probably assured UMD even w/o the EA.</p>
<p>Thats wat i thought. There actually isnt much of a choice....im not going to Harvard, nor Yale. I dont want Georgetown, and i dont want Fordham, lol. There isnt much. Trust me. I saw the entire list.</p>
<p>Well then I guess you might as well EA at UMD. But don't stop looking. After all, this will all probably be worthless since you will likely get into Cornell ED if you consider yourself a good candidate. I say this b/c w/ most CC kids, they think they are going to get rejected everywhere no matter what, which is sometimes the safest view. Set lofty goals and work towards them, but don't expect to reach them.</p>
<p>Trust me. Im atypical of all these CC kids. Im really different, and i dont just say that.</p>
<p>Hey Cornell.. I'm thinking about doing the same thing you are. What about EAing to Boston College?</p>
<p>rutgers is rolling</p>
<p>i'm pretty sure goucher has two EA's</p>
<p>for ivies... the ivy agreement says that 1) each school is either ED or SCEA and 2) if you apply for a december-notification program (aka ED or SCEA) at any of the ivies, you cannot apply for any other december-notification program at any other school.</p>
<p>which means you can't apply EA anywhere if you're applying ED to an ivy.</p>
<p>EDII and rolling are fine, though.</p>
<p>NOT TRUE. I know a kid, Cornell class of 2009, accepted ED, and applied to Tulane EA.</p>
<p>umm it looks like Harvard's policy allows nonbinding EA somewhere else and rolling/interim/international/EDII</p>
