<p>^Early Decision deposits, regardless of round, are due about two weeks after receiving acceptance. If a student accepts Swarthmore’s ED offer, then s/he is ethically obliged to withdraw all pending applications and not initiate any new ones. However, if s/he declines the offer due to financial aid, go ahead and apply to Midd–after all, the student doesn’t know whether Midd’s offer would be any better AND Swarthmore (presumably the first choice) would be gone forever as an option.</p>
