[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's interesting is that it's only HYPS that do things this way. It's like a cartel. I'm aware that MIT, CalTech, and Notre Dame also do SCEA, but there is not much overlap with applicants. These are the only schools that do SCEA, while very other selective school does ED, which is much simpler and avoids morally ambiguous situations. It's like HYPS are determined to get America's most cutthroat, friendless, amoral, and un-empathetic high school students. It's very self-selective.  [/quote]

MIT is non-restrictive early action, so students can apply EA to MIT and ED to Penn.  I know a few kids who did so (accepted at Penn, deferred at MIT).

Caltech, Notre Dame, and Georgetown do early action, not SCEA.  Students are allowed to apply to any other schools they like so long as none requires a commitment to attend if accepted (i.e., none is ED rather than EA). I know of students who applied to all four (MIT, Caltech, Georgetown, and Notre Dame) as well as public EA (Michigan, Texas).

I know several students who applied to MIT, Caltech, and Georgetown (which some of the most confident consider a safety). There are also many Notre Dame / Georgetown double applicants, and a few who applied to all four as well as Michigan and Texas (MIT as the super-reach).[/quote]
