Listen "Episode 2 — Breaking Down Single-Choice & Restrictive Early Action"
Episode Synopsis
You’ve probably heard of Early Action, but do you know what Single-Choice and Restrictive Early Action are? Seven of the top colleges (Stanford, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, CalTech, Georgetown, and Notre Dame) offer one of these unique sub-types of Early Action that place significant restrictions on the other colleges to which students under these plans may apply.In this episode, we analyze what these plans entail, why Single-Choice and Restrictive Early Action are often confused, and what they can mean for your admissions prospects if you are targeting one of the schools above.——“The Game” is hosted by Sam Hassell and brought to you by Great Minds Advising.
