<p>"Also remember that you cannot apply EA at georgetown and EA at another school."</p>
<p>WHAT?</p>
<p>sybbie, you are misinformed: </p>
<p>"In keeping with this principle, students applying under the Early Action program may not apply at the same time to binding Early Decision programs because they then would not be free to choose Georgetown if admitted. Students are welcome to apply to other Early Action programs or other Regular Decision programs while at the same time applying to Georgetown's Early Action program."</p>
<p>my bad, I meant to say ED</p>
<p>you might try checking <a href="http://www.commonapp.org%5B/url%5D">www.commonapp.org</a> they have a list there of schools that accept the common app and if they need a supplement, also if they have EA or ED or both and a link to the schools site so you can check their specific policy on it.....only thing is that they are currently updating the list for the 06-07 year so check it later on under the College Info in Member Colleges & Universities.....</p>
<p>hope it helps =-D</p>
<p>Brown is ED.
Some ED schools allow other non-SCEA applications (Columbia ED, MIT EA for example). It depends on the individual school.</p>
<p>Georgetown IS NOT SCEA. You can apply to other EA schools like Chicago or MIT or Boston College.</p>
<p>I would imagine they would the admission to both schools. Since ED is a binding contract I would think that once the applicant told the school he couldn't attend that they would contact the other schools and both would deny the applicant.</p>
<p>just dont go there for grad school if ya know what i mean...</p>
<p>Sixteen schools shows a drive to succeed but doesn't show a deep connection to any school... I'm sure that you want to go somewher (or to one of five places). Need based aid (at least outside of ED) is usually pretty comparable (except at some public schools). If you're considering merit-scholarships (sorry to cover all the bases), then you might shy away from ED.</p>
<p>If money isn't an issue, pick one school you like for ED. Start the other colleges' applications (but don't pay the fees) so that you have a plan B, and, after December 1st, make your new decision.</p>
<p>If you're just indecisive, try to find out more about these colleges and then cut down your list. Columbia and Duke? Completely different atmospheres--you must be able to differentiate. Along these lines, don't do any ED.</p>
<p>EA, (especially harvard's SCEA) can be very helpful.</p>
<p>Good luck.</p>
<p>(writing about college admissions makes me want to forget last year... I'm glad it's over).</p>
<p>say if i apply to 1 ED (Duke), and then apply to a bunch of EA's that are not binding?? could i do that?</p>
<p>drummerdude_07, if u're planning to apply ED to JohnS Hopkins, make sure u put the 'S' on JohnS. trust me, the adcoms at JHU hate it when their applicants mispell the school's name.</p>
<p>I'm definitey not applying to JHU, and I did know that there's an S, but oh well. And to the other person, WE'VE BEEN OVER THIS. It ALWAYS depends on the specific policies of the schools. If you are too lazy to take the 5 minutes to look them up, I'm not going to help you.</p>
<p>Anyone have a GC who gave mis or disinformation about all this? I've heard that some schools are refusing to send in more than two EA apps.! Seems to me that the GC is in a position to really srew you accidentally or on purpose? Heard any horror stories about unethical or incompetent GCs?</p>
