You can apply to only one school ED

ED schools allow you to apply EA elsewhere

EA schools are then divided into three groups:


Those with SCEA (restrictive “single choice” early action) prohibit you from applying EA or ED elsewhere with some exceptions (e.g., they allow you to apply EA to your home state college)
Those EA schools which allow you to apply EA and ED elsewhere.
Those EA schools (e.g., Georgetown) which allow you to apply EA elsewhere but not ED


Thus, the answer to your first question is yes.

But the answer to your second question is yes for group 2 EA schools but no for group 3.
