I’m not sure what Harvard means, since the language is confusing–it’s unclear whether a student could apply to University of Michigan, which has an EA program and Harvard EA–I think that there are some people on the Harvard board who are planning to email Harvard for clarification.

As to Princeton, I think that the Princeton policy allows a student to apply to rolling schools, since in effect, students are applying RD to such schools (at least that’s how I read it). I will try and check with people in the admissions office about this (and about whether the school will allow students to apply to EA programs at public universities in their home states, which is the only other Yale exception to the policy).
