@Boston College

A student applying to a binding Early Decision program may not apply Early Action to Boston College.

from Georgetown

@Georgetown University

Georgetown’s Early Action program is grounded in the belief that students should be free to choose among colleges until the Candidate’s Reply Date. Accordingly, accepted students will have the same reply date (May 1) as all candidates.

In keeping with this principle, students applying under the Early Action program may not apply to any binding Early Decision programs since they then would not be free to choose Georgetown if admitted. Students are welcome to apply to other Early Action programs or other Regular Decision programs while at the same time applying to Georgetown’s Early Action program.

Your best bet would be to read each school’s policy
