<p>Here was mine, only 3: </p>
<p>New York University
Tufts University
Haverford College</p>
<p>What about you guys?</p>
<p>you mean early, not EA. Tufts only offers ED</p>
<p>Yes that's what I mean</p>
<p>Haverford is also an ED school...</p>
<p>you dont seriously plan on applying ED to all those schools do you?
Do you even know anything about ED?
BEcause basically, you are screwing yourself over if you do.</p>
<p>If you get accepted ED, it is binding, meaning that you have to go to the school.
If you back out of 1, then they call every school you sent apps to and tell them to reject you or rescind their offers...and they will.</p>
<p>You can ONLY apply ED to 1 school, and ONLY 1.</p>
<p>Your schools are in fact ED, so you HAVE to withdraw from all but one! Or you won't get into ANY!
And pick your #1 choice to keep the application in of course...</p>
<p>You can apply regular to all the others later if you want, but not ED!</p>
<p>did you apply ED to all 3 of those schools?</p>
<p>Well, looks like the OP is in for some long talks with admissions officers.</p>
<p>Anyways, that said, my only EA was Notre Dame.</p>
<p>Notre Dame
Villanova
Fordham</p>
<p>The fact that he didn't know whether his schools were EA or ED before applying makes it all the more obvious to admission officers that he hasn't done the research that shows respect for the school haha.</p>
<p>EA:
UNC Chapel Hill
North Carolina State</p>
<p>EA:
UNC Chapel Hill
NC State
Notre Dame</p>
<p>I applied SCEA to Yale.</p>

<p>LMFAO. "ONLY" three.... hahahaha. He thinks three is a little and thinks its okay to apply to "only" three ED schools! lmao that's great.</p>
<p>does georgetown have ED? and Uni of Virgina?</p>
<p>dominus96, just call up the schools that you don't want for ED and say that you accidently checked early decision. If any of the ones you checked for ED have EA (I think EA is non-binding), tell them you meant to check that. If they don't have EA and only have ED and you don't want them the most (you would have to go there if accepted) just say that you accidentally checked ED, but want to apply for regular decision. The apps are the same, I believe, so you'd just need to clarify the decision to the schools. </p>
<p>Make sure the one you want to remain ED is REALLY your top choice. Sometimes the schools will let you get out of it (if they don't give you as much money as you anticipated, for example), but ED is considered binding. And if you do not correct your mistake, they will find out and any acceptances will be rescinded.</p>
<p>Good luck. This really seems like an honest mistake to me. I didn't really know that there was a difference between EA and ED for a while either.</p>
<p>ED</p>
<p>Johns Hopkins(NUMBER 1 CHOICE)</p>
<p>EA</p>
<p>MIT(Priority)
Stanford
Berkley
University of Pennsylvania(Priority)
Northwestern</p>
<p>zainuu, Georgetown is EA. not sure if it's SCEA or not. I think UVA is EA as well.</p>
<p>Huh?
- Stanford has Single-Choice Early Action (nonbinding but you can't apply to other schools' early programs).
- Northwestern, Penn, and Johns Hopkins have Early Decision (binding; can only apply ED to 1 school).
- If I'm not mistaken, UC Berkeley doesn't have an early program; all apps for freshman entering in Fall 2008 are due November 30.
- I think MIT is the only school on your list with a nonbinding, non-single-choice early program. </p>
<p>For somebody else who asked earlier in this thread: UVa got rid of its early decision program, and Georgetown has Restrictive Early Action (nonbinding; can apply to other schools EA but none ED).</p>
<p>Colleges' own websites = the best place to find this information. They're there for a reason.</p>
<p>btw, Northwestern is ED,</p>
<p>Stanford is REA meaning that you cannot apply to any other early school except:</p>
<pre><code>* Any institution, public or private, under a non-binding Rolling Admission option;
* Public institutions under a non-binding Early Action program;
* Foreign colleges/universities on any application schedule;
* Institutions whose early application deadlines are a requirement for consideration for special academic programs or scholarships only if the notification of admission occurs after January 1; and to
* Institutions under an Interim Decision program only if the notification of admission occurs after January 1.
