Regarding Yale's Early Action

<p>Hello, everybody... I would just like to make a quick question...</p>

<p>I've read so many things about EA that I just don't know which one is true, so I was hoping that maybe you could enlighten me a little bit.</p>

<p>My question is the following: If I apply to Yale as EA does that mean that if I get accepted I will (no matther what) HAVE to go there?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance :)</p>

<p>no
It's not binding</p>

<p>Thank you for that!! I was so confused after reading tons of application requirements for different universities, that I just wasn't sure that I got Yale's policy right.</p>

<p>But now I do. thanks again.</p>

<p>No, Yale early action is not binding, but you are not allowed to apply anywhere else early.</p>

<p>If you are an applicant to Yale under the Single Choice Early Action program, then you may not apply to any early program that notifies candidates in December. However, you may apply to another college's early notification program under certain conditions. First, you may apply to a public university's "rolling" admission program if the program is non-binding (a program is non-binding if you have until May 1 to respond). Second, you may apply to a college with a scholarship "deadline" only if the notification of admissions occurs in the regular admissions cycle. Finally, you may apply to another college's "Round 2 Early Decision" program if notification is after January 1. If you are admitted through another college's "Round 2 Early Decision" program, you must withdraw your application from Yale.</p>
