Where can I find a list of Early Decision 2 schools?

I'm trying to compile a list of colleges that offer Early Decision 2 options. Can someone point me toward a reliable source or list? It would help a ton with my college application planning strategy!

a year ago

While there's not a definitive, aggregator site for Early Decision 2 colleges, I can certainly recommend a few schools known for offering ED2 as an admissions option. This is not a complete list, but here are a few institutions to consider:

1. Swarthmore College

2. University of Chicago

3. Pomona College

4. New York University

5. Vanderbilt University

6. Tufts University

7. Emory University

8. Wesleyan University

9. Washington University in St. Louis

The best way to confirm if a school offers ED2 would be to visit its official admissions website. There, you should be able to find the deadlines for each admission round, including Early Decision 2 if it's available.

But it's also important to remember that you should only apply Early Decision, either ED1 or ED2, if you are certain that the college is your first choice and you're committed to attend if accepted. ED is a binding agreement, so feelings of "buyer's remorse" can't be an option with this choice! Good luck with your applications – you're approaching them very strategically!
