[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aside from FA, why would anyone not apply to their reach ED? Seems like chance of acceptance is much higher, so maybe the best way to approach a reach. Are college counselors not promoting this? (DC is a sophomore so I am not dealing with them much yet). Thanks[/quote]

DS's top choice only has EA, that's why.[/quote]

Same. It doesn't allow us to apply to any other private universities EA or ED. And only EA to public universities.

So he has two EAs with 11/1 deadlines and the rest are RD.[/quote]

Is this typical? DS's school doesn't have any such restrictions.[/quote]

Princeton, Harvard, Yale: yes.  They have REA. Restrictive early action[/quote]

What makes this different from ED then?[/quote]

You can only apply to public schools AND one of the REA schools (Yale, Harvard or Princeton). If you get into Yale and Berkeley, you could say no to Yale and head to Berkeley. What you canNOT do is apply to Yale early as well as another private, get into both and then say you’re going to the other private. [/quote]
