Northeastern Early Decision Info?

Hey! I'm thinking of applying to Northeastern for Early Decision because it's one of my top choices. Does anyone know when the Early Decision deadline is? Also, any thoughts on the acceptance rate for ED applicants vs RD applicants?

Hey there! Great to hear that Northeastern is one of your top choices. The Early Decision I (ED1) deadline for Northeastern typically falls on November 1st and the Early Decision II (ED2) deadline on January 1st, so you'd want to double-check their website closer to the date for the specific deadline of the application cycle you're applying in.

As for acceptance rates, like many colleges, Northeastern tends to admit a higher percentage of applicants through Early Decision than Regular Decision. While I don't have the exact numbers, it's generally agreed upon that applying Early Decision can provide an advantage in the admissions process.

The reason for this advantage is that colleges value demonstrating your strong interest in attending their institution by committing to them early. Just bear in mind that Early Decision is a binding agreement, which means you're committing to attend Northeastern if accepted and offered sufficient financial aid.

I hope this helps you in your decision-making process, and best of luck with your application! Remember to submit a polished and authentic application that highlights your strengths and interests.
