Hi there! I've been considering applying to Bowdoin and was wondering if they offer Early Action. If they do, could someone let me know the deadline for submission? Thanks!
Hello! Bowdoin College does not offer Early Action, but they do offer a binding Early Decision I (EDI) and a binding Early Decision II (EDII) option for prospective students. If you're set on applying early, you can consider applying through one of these Early Decision options.
For Early Decision I, the deadline is November 15, and decisions are generally released in mid-December. For Early Decision II, the deadline is January 5, and decisions are typically released in mid-February. If you're still exploring your options and would prefer to apply during the Regular Decision round, the deadline for that is January 5 as well, and decisions are usually released in late March or early April.
Remember that Early Decision denotes a commitment to attend Bowdoin if accepted, so only choose this option if Bowdoin is your top choice and you're ready to make that commitment. Good luck with your application!
