Yale REA and Georgia Tech EA

[ucbalumnus]

As an example (and since your kid might be an engineer), MIT has completely unrestricted EA. So your kid could apply EA to MIT and MIT would also let your kid apply early (regardless of ED/SCEA/REA/EA) to every other college that exists. But that would be a problem for Yale SCEA.

MIT says that EA applicants must abide by the rules of any other EA school that they apply to.

However: if you apply to another school during Early Action that does have a restriction, MIT requires that you respect those rules. So for example, if you apply to another school that is “single choice”— meaning that you can only apply there during the early period—you may not simultaneously apply to MIT. But that’s just good manners.
