ABOUT THIS EVENT

Building a successful college application strategy requires understanding the nuances of early versus regular decision rounds. Choosing between Early Decision (ED), Early Action (EA), and Regular Decision (RD) can significantly impact your admissions outcomes, but determining the right timeline for each school on your list takes careful planning.

Join IvyWise admissions counselors Claire (formerly at the University of Chicago) and Katie (formerly at the University of Notre Dame) as they demystify decision rounds and guide you through crafting an optimized application timeline. They will share how to weigh binding versus non-binding options, assess your application readiness, and strategically align your top choices with the decision rounds that offer the best advantage. You will leave with actionable steps to structure your application strategy, manage deadlines stress-free, and maximize your chances of acceptance.

We will provide all registrants with a link to the recording of the webinar after the event.
