FAQ for Admission

Application Rounds & Early Decision

What application rounds does 必博娱乐,比博娱乐网址 ######### offer?

We offer Early Decision 1, Early Decision 2, and Regular Decision. Please note that Early Decision is binding, meaning that if you are admitted in an Early Decision round, you are committing to enroll at 必博娱乐,比博娱乐网址 ######### and withdraw any applications you have submitted to other institutions.

What are the advantages of Early Decision (ED)?

There are two primary advantages to applying as an Early Decision applicant.

First, a higher percentage of students are admitted in Early Decision—as the pool of applicants is smaller than in Regular Decision. If you are confident that 必博娱乐,比博娱乐网址 ######### is the right fit for you, we encourage you to consider applying as an Early Decision applicant.

Second, you find out if you’ve been admitted sooner! ED applicants typically receive their admission decisions about 1 month after each ED deadline (RD applicants receive decisions in mid-March). The ED1 deadline is November 15 and ED2 deadline is January 15. There is no difference in how applicants are reviewed between the ED1 and ED2 rounds.

Does 必博娱乐,比博娱乐网址 ######### have a rolling admission policy?

In Early Decision rounds, students are notified on a rolling basis once the Office of Admission has received all the required application materials. All decisions will be released within one month of the application deadlines. In the Regular Decision round, our application deadline is January 15th, and all applicants receive their admission decisions by mid-March.

Can I change to be considered as an early decision applicant if I have already applied as a regular decision applicant?

Absolutely, as long as you do so before February 20th. You should email us at admission@denison.edu to let us know you would like to make this change, and we will require you complete the early decision agreement (requiring your signature, along with a parent’s and a counselor’s signatures.)
