<p>When they say single choice am I allowed to apply ED or rolling anywhere else?</p>
<p>Means you can't apply EA to anywhere else. I think ED and rolling are still ok.</p>
<p>It depends on the school. Stanford will not allow you to apply to another school ED or EA if you apply there SCEA. Check the websites for each school.</p>
<p>It's SINGLE choice. You can apply rolling. But you CANNOT apply to another early program.</p>
<p>That goes for Stanford and Yale, and previously Harvard.</p>
<p>What ses said. Rolling and RD are ok, EA and ED are not.</p>
<p>You're allowed to apply EA to other publics.</p>
<p>NO! No, you're not.</p>

<p>I think you can apply to any public institutions under non-binding EA program.</p>
<p>^That's Stanford's policy. It doesn't apply everywhere. Yale will rescind/reject you for violating their Single Choice Early Action agreement.</p>
<p>how do they know, counselors?</p>
<p>In general, I've seen some schools have forms that you have to sign stating that you understand the ED rules, I guess it would be the same as the SCEA rules. So basically you have to sign some papers somewhere. I have not checked with either Stanford nor Yale website to confirm this.</p>
<p>If you SCEA at Stanford, you can't SCEA or ED anywhere else. You can however EA elsewhere.</p>
<p>^ I don't think you can, that is why the term SCEA, otherwise it would be EA. That is why it has the word public for UCs I think but not private</p>

<p>Rolling is ok. otherwise, whether you can EA depends on the school</p>
<p>Is the OP apply SCEA to Yale or Stanford?</p>
<p>Because Yale can and will rescind him. And any good counselor would protect his/her other students by preventing this from happening, same with any good registrar.</p>
<p>Yale would find out because there is a pact among a group of colleges. They send share the list of their early admits. So if Yale and Stanford (I don't know if those two actually share, the pact is mostly Northeastern colleges) both send out a list with the OP's name on it, they will BOTH, according to the agreement, rescind their offer of admission to him, and the other schools on the list will blacklist him for admission per the agreement.</p>
<p>I was going to do SCEA Yale (because of the much higher acceptance rate), but I already sent in EA to MIT, so oh well. Too bad MIT doesn't have SCEA</p>
<p>Yale SCEA this year is probably gonna suck since the other colleges dropped the EA program.</p>
<p>how so? Everyone who would SCEA PTON and Harvard are going to SCEA at yale? I didn't think about that, nice observation.</p>
<p>or Stanford...it'll be Yale and Stanford getting packed with Early admissions...</p>
