What is early admission?

<p>some colleges offer early admission. what is that?</p>

<p>Is that the same as Early Decision?
Anyways,if it is…
You apply early and if you get accepted, you have to go to that school.</p>

<p>It depends on the school and how the terminology is being used. Some schools consider early admissions ED (which is binding) or EA (non-binding) while other schools designate early admissions as student who are admitted to college as high school juniors.</p>

<p>There’s a lot of different types. EA, SCEA, ED, ED II, etc.</p>

<p>o yea i meant early decision…does that mean i can take the SAT in my junior year and get accepted into a college that offers early decision in my junior yr ?</p>

<p>Typically, you apply for Early Decision at the beginning of your senior year and learn whether you are accepted in December of senior year.</p>

<p>So not junior year, no. The only reason you would apply junior year is if you were graduating as a junior.</p>

<p>Acceptance after junior year, without graduation, is called “early admissions.” ED is “early decision”, EA is “early action.”</p>

<p>Some schools do offer early admissions to exceptionally talented juniors.
