Hey guys, I'm starting to think about my college applications and I'm interested in applying to some schools through Early Action. Can anyone recommend some colleges that offer EA? I'd like to know what my options are.
Sure, here's a list of some prominent colleges and universities in the United States that offer Early Action as an admission option:
1. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
2. University of Notre Dame
3. University of Pennsylvania (UPenn)
4. California Institute of Technology (Caltech)
5. Georgetown University
6. Villanova University
7. University of Virginia
8. University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-Chapel Hill)
9. University of Michigan (UMich)
10. University of Chicago (UChicago)
11. Boston College
12. Yale University (Single-Choice Early Action)
13. Stanford University (Single-Choice Early Action)
14. Harvard University (Single-Choice Early Action)
15. Princeton University (Single-Choice Early Action)
The last five on the list follow the Single-Choice Early Action or Restrictive Early Action policies, meaning you can't apply to other private colleges/universities under Early Decision or Early Action plans. But you can still apply to public colleges, international institutions, or colleges with rolling admissions.
Keep in mind that this is not an exhaustive list, but it should provide a good starting point for your college search. Be sure to check each college's specific application requirements, deadlines, and policies on their website to ensure you're meeting all their criteria. Good luck with your college applications!
