<p>are there any downsides to early action application
and when is the deadline for it
more importantly than the second one, when is the last time you can take the sat to send your scores in early action?
(can you send november scores or is that too late?)</p>
<p>The only downside I can think of is that you can only do Early Action to one university (except I’ve seen a few universities that allow you to do Early Action to two schools) so you have to pick carefully.</p>
<p>Usually the deadline is the beginning of November, so typically October is the last date you can take the SATs. Although, this differs between schools and although most do Early Action at the beginning of November, some do it later, so you have to check with the school for important dates.</p>
<p>Sometimes the last day you can take the SAT for Early Action is November, so check the school’s website.</p>
<p>If you do Early Action, make sure that your resume is as good as it will ever be. The only reason I can think for waiting is if you’re trying to bring up your GPA. Other than that, you’ll probably have all you need by the Early Action deadline. Also, when you do Early Action, you find out about a month later whether you’ve been accepted, denied, or just deferred to the next application period.</p>
<p>I don’t think that is true. I was under the impression, that as long as it is not single choice EA (like Harvard), you could EA to as many schools as you want. There doesn’t seem to be anything on anyone’s web site stating otherwise. </p>
<p>to applicants of years past:
is it possible to apply EA to MIT & CIT & Uchicago?</p>
