Early Action to Dickinson?

hi, i'm planning to apply to Dickinson
but i don't know whether I should apply as ED or EA.
does EA to Dickinson have any advantage over ED and RD?

what I mean is, for most schools, apply ED will definitely increase the chance of getting in
but how about apply EA? especially in this case, Dickinson offers both ED and EA?
so is there any advantage if I apply to Dickinson through EA?

btw, i'm an international student. and i'm applying for finaid
thx alot

EA would be a disadvantage if any because it does not offer the commitment of an ED, and holds just as much competition as RD.

In your case, I'd apply RD unless you love the school and know that you want to go there, then apply ED.

btw: I'll be an entering Dickinson freshman this Fall
