Timing is everything: Know which application season works best for you.
One major factor in choosing when to apply is timing. There are two different application seasons that you can choose from. The first application season is the Early Action (EA) application season, and the second is the Regular Decision (RD) application season.
Keep in mind that not all colleges offer both application seasons. Early Action (EA) application season allows you to apply and get a decision before the RD season begins, which is very beneficial, especially if you’re applying to competitive colleges. Regular Decision (RD) application season means you must wait until the end of the year to find out if you’ve been accepted. The decision isn’t bad, it all depends on your target schools.
