[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]dont forget about ED 2 and maybe start thinking now about which school you might ED2.  My 2025 student got deferred from Dartmouth ED 1, and then by mid-december got spooked and there were only two schools on her list that had ED2 and she chose one of those and was accepted and shes happy, or I think she is.  So it all worked out. But if we'd thought about ed 2 in advance we may have added more schools to the list earlier that had ED 2.  It is pretty hard mid-December to add new schools just logistically with all the essays etc.  [/quote]

We had DD make ED1 and ED2 decisions at the same time. She has three Hugh match schools that are very close in her mind. And I do not want her to get deferred or denied in mid DEc and have 2 weeks while she is disappointed over Christmas to make a decision. So, she has Plan A (ED1j), Plan B (ED2), Plans C (4-5 EA and RD schools) and Plan D (Pitt, already admitted).

Never make big decisions when emotions are running high. [/quote]

I thought one could only apply to one ED as they would be bound to attend if accepted. Could someone please explain how ED1 and ED2 works? Can a kid apply to two schools (ED1 and ED2) at the same time? How it does it work with acceptances?[/quote]

Applications for ED are due between Oct 15 and Nov 15, and you hear back by mid to late December. If you get in, it is binding. If you don't get in, then you can apply somewhere ED2 (Jan 1 deadline) and you hear by late Feb, and that would be binding.[/quote]
