Knowledge is Power - EA/ED --> RD
Originally sent October 2022
It’s crunch time for our seniors! As each of them finalizes their early window applications this week, we wanted to let parents know why the early window of applications (Early Decision - previously discussed, but also Early Action) are tremendously beneficial.
If your high schooler can be on top of things and have their applications finalized already, strongly encourage them to submit early!
Summary of benefits:
Knowledge is power - Knowing your application decision can drastically reduce the # of RD apps you have to submit
Early apps help you maximize your merit scholarship options
In the back half of the video, we then discuss transitioning from Early Applications (due Nov. 1) to Regular applications (due Jan. 1) and how to smartly play that game (Hint: you’ll have an important risk/reward decision to make!)

P.S. - Have a high-performing high schooler w/ a 3.7 GPA or higher? We'll help get them into at least one of their top 5 dream colleges...and if we don't get them into at least one of their top 5 dream colleges, you don't pay us a penny. Seriously. College admissions isn't rocket science...but it is a science. And we've cracked the code...year, after year, after year. You can learn more about our world renowned all-inclusive, start-to-finish college coaching here and to see if your family qualifies for an introductory call.
P.P.S - Our most common question is "When should we start?!" The answer is, if you truly care about giving your high schooler the best chance of college planning success, you should start NOW. 9th grade is not too early to start! 10th grade is certainly not too early to start! And 11th grade is far, far too late! (supporting data here to show just how much of an advantage you give your child by starting the process early).
