Hey guys, I'm currently researching colleges and really like the University of Rochester. Does anyone know if they offer an Early Action admissions plan? Thanks in advance!
Hey there! The University of Rochester does not offer an Early Action admission plan, but they do have an Early Decision (ED) option. Early Decision is a binding agreement, meaning that if you apply and are accepted, you're obligated to attend the university and withdraw your applications from other schools. They actually offer two rounds of Early Decision: Early Decision I (EDI) with a deadline in November and Early Decision II (EDII) with a deadline in January.
If you're not quite sure if Rochester is your top choice, you can apply through Regular Decision (RD), which typically has a deadline in January as well. Regular Decision is non-binding and provides you with more time to weigh your options after receiving your admissions decisions from all the schools you applied to.
Remember to consider all factors, like financial aid, the campus environment, and your feelings towards the university when deciding whether to apply ED or RD. Good luck with your application and college search!
