When are most college early action deadlines?

Hi, I'm planning my applications and I'm a bit worried about deadlines. When do most colleges have their early action deadlines? Can't find a straight answer anywhere. Help!

Sure, I can help with that! Most colleges have their Early Action (EA) deadlines between November 1st and November 15th. However, keep in mind that this can vary by college, and it's crucial to check the specific deadlines for each school you're interested in on their website or through a reliable source like CollegeVine's Application Deadlines page.

Here are some examples to give you an idea:

- Harvard University, Stanford University, and the University of Chicago have a November 1st EA deadline.

- The University of Michigan and The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have their EA deadlines on November 1st.

So while the above should give you a general idea, it's always a good idea to do your due diligence and ensure you've got the correct dates for each of the schools on your list. Furthermore, keep in mind that all application materials—including test scores, recommendation letters, and transcripts—must typically be submitted by this deadline.

Another thing to keep in mind is that these deadlines for EA still give you the option to apply to other colleges' Regular Decision, as well as compare financial aid offers.

Let me know if there are any other questions you have about college application deadlines or anything else related to the admissions process. Good luck with your college applications!
