What happens if you get accepted to two early decisions?

So if you are admitted to either of two ED schools, the admission officials at the other one might see your name and compare it to the roster of its own ED candidates. When those college folks spot your name on that list, they will notify the college that said yes to you, and your acceptance will be rescinded.

Do other colleges know if you applied early decision?

No, in theory, admission officials will not know if you applied via Early Decision or Early Action to another college. There is a group of highly competitive colleges that do share their admitted Early Decision applicant list with each other.

When Does early decision 2 release?

When exactly is Early Decision II? Most application deadlines for ED II fall on January 1, at or around the same time as Regular Decision deadlines. ED II applicants usually receive a decision in mid-February.

What is the difference between early decision and early decision 2?

Early Decision is quickly becoming a misnomer. Unlike traditional Early Decision (ED I) programs with deadlines in October or November, Early Decision II allows students to wait until later in the admissions cycle to claim their allegiance to a particular school.

Does early decision affect financial aid?

Students accepted under early decision lose the ability to compare aid packages across multiple schools. “The primary financial drawback of applying early decision is that you give up the ability to compare offers from other schools and potentially negotiate awards to get those offers even higher,” Vasconcelos says.

Can you apply two restrictive early action?

Early Action is non-binding, meaning that you are not required to attend the school if you are accepted. You can apply to multiple schools this way. However, Early Decision IS binding, meaning that you can really only apply to one ED. I hope this helps!
