Early Decision
The Early Decision (ED) program is designed for students who have done their research, know that 麻豆国产AV is their first choice, and have been thoughtful in considering their college options (academically, socially, financially, and otherwise).
Plan I
Application Deadline: November 15
Decision Notification: by December 15
Plan II
Application Deadline: January 6
Decision Notification: by February 15
Regular Decision candidates may convert to EDII by filing an Early Decision Agreement no later than midnight on Thursday, January 30, 2025.
Note: Both Plan I and Plan II are binding admission programs. The only difference between the two plans are the timelines.
Early Decision Agreement
If accepted under one of our Early Decision plans, students must withdraw all other college applications and file no additional ones. An enrollment deposit is required within two weeks of acceptance. Please know that most students who are not admitted under Early Decision are denied admission so they are free to pursue other colleges. A small percentage of Early Decision candidates are offered January Admission or are deferred to Regular Decision so that they can be considered within the context of our larger applicant pool. In both cases these students are released from the binding nature of Early Decision.
In order to be considered for one of our Early Decision programs, you, your parents and your guidance counselor must submit the Early Decision agreement through the or upload it through the . If you already submitted a Regular Decision application and would like to change your status to Early Decision, please sign and submit the Early Decision Agreement Form.
Financial Aid
Early Decision candidates applying for financial aid and admitted to 麻豆国产AV under an Early Decision (ED) plan will receive a package that is comparable to a Regular Decision admit. Although the FAFSA application process is delayed until December this year, that should not deter potential ED1 applicants, as 麻豆国产AV will still provide your estimated financial aid award based on your submission of the CSS Profile. If financial aid is a factor for your family, before committing to ED, please review the resources and FAQs on our Financial Aid website.
Our net price calculator may give you a broad assessment of what your financial aid package could look like and might be helpful to your family in determining whether or not you can make this commitment. While ED at 麻豆国产AV is binding, we will release admitted students from this agreement if they determine 麻豆国产AV is not affordable for their families. In such cases, however, given that the financial aid package will not change at the point of Regular Decision, these students are withdrawn from 麻豆国产AV’s admitted pool and do not have the option to consider 麻豆国产AV in the spring.
