Not applying ED but want to go

Colleges and Universities A-Z Brown University

<p>I’m not applying Brown ED becauase I want to have my options open. Brown is either my first or second chocie (with Columbia) and I would love to get in. Since I am not applying early, will it be that much more difficult than getting in regular decision? In other words, if I don’t get in regular decision, that must mean that I wouldn’t have gotten in (deffered or denied) if I had applied regular decision?</p>

<p>I am also applying to the PLME program (but I won’t get in) so I hope that doesn’t hurt my chances of getting into the college once I get denied from that program…</p>

<p>you mean, if you don't get in regular decision, that must mean you wouldn't have gotten in had you applied early?</p>

<p>check the Early Decision vs Regular thread in this Brown forum. I posted 2 posts with Brown specific ED vs regular results, from a major research report published as a book, The Early Admissions Game.</p>

<p>My son applied RD and was accepted to Brown and PLME. I believe you must be accepted to Brown undergrad before the PLME decision is made. </p>

<p>You should sound confident in your abilities when writing your app - convince Brown that you will be an asset to their school and PLME.</p>

<p>No, I don't believe that is the case. If you read the application, for the PLME section it gives the option of still being considered for the Brown undergrad applicant pool. I think the decisions are separate.</p>

<p>I see. I was under the impression that one did not mean the other.</p>
