<p>Exceptions to Stanford's Restrictive Single-Choice Early Action Program<br>
Stanford's Early Action program differs from many Early Action programs, as it does not allow a candidate to apply to other schools under any type of Early Action, Early Decision, or Early Notification program, with the following exceptions:</p>
<p>Students applying to Stanford's Single-Choice Early Action program may apply to:
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. </p>
<p>Candidates who apply early to Stanford are asked to sign a statement in their application agreeing to file only one early application. Their parents and high school counselors are also asked to sign statements indicating that the applicant is aware of the terms of Single-Choice Early Action. </p>
