<p>It would it be ridiculous if I took my last ACT in October and applied Early Decision? Or is it just too risky?</p>
<p>I feel like that should be fine.</p>
<p>That’s permissible. Stanford says so itself:</p>
<p>[Application</a> Deadlines & Fees : Stanford University](<a href=“http://www.stanford.edu/dept/uga/application/deadlines/index.html]Application”>http://www.stanford.edu/dept/uga/application/deadlines/index.html)</p>
<p>By the way, it is early action, not early decision.</p>
