ED and Restricted EA Inconsistancy

[mabsjenbu123]

<p>On the "future plans" section, the common app does not let you select "ED" for two different schools. This makes sense.</p>

<p>However, it does let you select ED for one school and then restricted EA (i.e. Stanford) to another school even though you technically are not allowed to. Why doesn't the common app address this?</p>

<p>no idea, but don't you dare do that :D</p>

<p>Different institutions define Restricted Early Action in different ways, and the online system does not distinguish among these varying restrictions. You should follow the guidelines that colleges provide, regardless of what the online system permits you top do.</p>
