<p>There’s no difference, really. There is a difference between the acceptance rate of EDI/EDII applicants to those accepted RD, though. A lot more people (almost 70%) are accepted ED, whereas a LOT less are accepted RD. </p>
<p>When you apply ED, MHC knows this is your first choice, so they have a preference for you because of this. EDII is set up for those “last-minute” applicants who really want to go to MHC, but decide that they might get a better aid package elsewhere, and for that reason they decide to put it off. In the end of it all, the EDII applicants still apply early, though.</p>
