<p>I heard that Harvard recently instated its EA program. I was originally going to do Stanford EA (since my sibling goes there, I feel that that would maximize my chance) but now I'm rethinking Harvard EA. I have decent grades and EC's, so I was wondering: would it be better to do Stanford or Harvard EA? I'd be happy to go to either schools, but Harvard is the asian dream ;)</p>
<p>There’s not really much of an advantage in applying EA other than hearing back early. </p>
<p>But if you must, Stanford EA.</p>
<p>Thanks. Any other opinion? Will Harvard be harder to get in regular because of the early action?? </p>

<p>Do Harvard!</p>
<p>You’ll probably have a better chance at Stanford if you already have a family member there.</p>
<p>OK, if I do Stanford EA, and do Harvard regular, do I have a small chance of getting in? Or do you think if I’m a decently qualified candidate that no matter what I have an equal shot of getting in?</p>

<p>H does not accept ‘decent’ applicants in the EA round, it accepts outstanding candidates that would be accepted in any applicant pool. See the other current thread about EA.</p>
