You're too late.

UChicago, Tulane, Emory, Colby, NYU, BC, BU, Tufts, UMiami, Wake, Northeastern, Wesleyan, UVA pretty much any school which is outside the top 15 or so (plus SLACs Williams and Amherst) (UChicago is probably the strongest school where ED gives such a big advantage).

If by "easier" you mean "will take a kid with lower stats" the answers here will be misleading.

If your kid is at or above range, then most schools are easier ED. Also simply getting the app in early helps too.

UVA? The in state admit rates are almost the same for ED and EA.

Northwestern has a 20% ED acceptance rate vs 6% RD. Also Vandy, WashU, Rice etc. So Basically any school with ED2.

Pomona has Ed2 but it hardly helps at all, and for most students has no boost.

UMD states it takes 90% of its freshman class in early admissions, and only consider these early applicants for its Honors and merit programs.

^ you said early admission, not early decision, BTW.

VA Tech. The admissions office is very open that if you want to get in, apply EA. They don't take many students during regular decision

Would be easier just to list the schools which don't provide a boost for applying ED. It would be a very short one.

I don't think any are anymore.

Williams and Amherst are decidedly an ED disadvantage for unhooked applicants. Bowdoin is even or a disadvantage. Swarthmore is even.
Pomona is a slight advantage. Middlebury and Colby are decent advantages.
