I'm thinking about applying Early Decision 2 to Emory. Can anyone confirm if it's a binding agreement? I'm weighing my options and want to make sure I'm aware of all the obligations.
Yes, Early Decision 2 (ED2) at Emory University is binding. This means that if you're accepted and Emory offers you financial aid that your family can afford, you're expected to commit and enroll there. It's also understood that you will withdraw any other college applications you've submitted. It's important to carefully consider your options before applying ED2 because it's a significant commitment; don't choose this option unless Emory is your definitive first choice. Also remember to use Emory's net price calculator to get an estimate of the financial aid you might receive to help with your decision.
