Can I apply to ED and RD at the same time?

In fact you need to have RD apps outstanding at the same time you have an ED app. ED is not a guarantee, and if you wait until you hear back from the ED college the deadline for RD applications will have passed at many schools, as you point out. So you just withdraw the RD apps (and eat the cost) if you get in ED.
