Preferred Admission Plan Confusion

So I’m applying (like, everything ready just have to press submit) to this major at Emerson that starts in the summer, and there’s only RD listed on the Common App with Summer 2020 meanwhile Fall 2020 and Spring 2020 list both RD and EA. I’m trying to apply EA, and an admissions counselor told me that the deadline is Nov 1. But obviously there’s no EA option on the Common App for summer. So if I submit by that Nov 1 deadline even if I select RD, do y’all think I’ll be put in with the EA batch? I guess I just don’t really know how this works. I know this is a dumb thing to be worrying about at the very last minute, I just really want my decision sooner and want to make sure I do everything correctly. And I know y’all won’t know the actual answers I just want to know what others think because I am very confused. I’ve tried emailing them but got no response. Thanks!

If you select RD on your app, they won’t read it until they’re done with EA apps. They don’t have EA for Summer 2020 because they don’t have as many applicants. I know that Emerson’s summer programs are really new so you’ll probably have a good chance of getting in.
