<p>Will colleges accept the October ACT in time for ED/EA? I'm not sure about where I am going to apply early decision to yet but for the school that have the 11/1 deadline will the scores come in time?</p>
<p>You have to check in with individual colleges. Not every college’s deadline is 11/1, and the policy isn’t the same across the board. Usually, colleges with 11/1 deadline will accept Oct and some will even accept Nov. scores. Keep in mind that some colleges with rolling admission will start taking application as early as Aug, so the earlier you send them your stuff the better. Consolidate a list of your favourite universities first, then go on their websites. They usually have all the deadlines and their policies regarding ED/EA.</p>
<p>Yeah, it does vary as moosey said. But generally the October ACT is acceptable for ED/EA.</p>
<p>Probably a stupid question, but what is ED/EA?</p>
