3). Regular Decision—apply by April 1, deposit by May 1
The Early Decision application is a binding commitment meant for students who are sure to enroll if accepted. Early Action also is a good option for students who want to receive their financial aid packages and other communications from the college sooner, which can help with college selection and planning.
