List of Colleges with Early Action, Early Decision, and Rolling Admissions

<p>A few CCers have been asking for a thread with colleges with rolling admissions, early action, and early decision, so here it is :slight_smile: (Plus it always comes up, so hopefully this will be stickied and people won’t have to start posts anymore :P)</p>

<p>One thing to remember: these are 2007 statistics, so always make sure to check with the college before taking anything for granted. Also, I’m sure a few schools are missing, so always check back with the college - don’t trust me, trust them :)</p>

<p>Colleges with Early Action (nonbinding): </p>

<p>So far only Stanford and Yale provide Single Choice Early Action, I believe (meaning it’s nonbinding, but you can only apply to one school early - only Stanford or Yale, in other words).</p>

<p>I’m afraid I was unable to find a textual list of ED schools, however the following pdf provides a list of both ED and EA schools:

<p>Enjoy!</p>

Auburn labels theirs EA but really it’s rolling. They release decisions once a week and you do not pick if you want early or regular; it’s just based on when you apply.

I can tell you from experience that if you want an early decision, University of Tennessee, Knoxville, sent our son his acceptance letter one week after applying (app went in mid-October). For our daughter, both Oklahoma and Indiana made decisions within a month of applying.

Has Denison University posted any ED1 #'s? Or do they wait until after ED2 is totaled in? Just curious…

Unfortunately this is way too outdated to be useful in the fast changing world of college admissions.

I just wanted to add my own two cents - even though a lot of colleges are out there, do not just scan the list. Early decision is a very serious decision, and, though it does increase your odds, realize that choosing a college is like choosing a home AND a workplace for the next four to ten years. You do not want to make this decision lightly.
However, if you really are 100% sure, go for it!
