Main content. Applying to Harvard under the Restrictive Early Action program empowers you to make a college choice early. Early applicants apply by the November 1 deadline and hear from us by mid-December. Early Action is a non-binding early program, meaning that if you are admitted you are not obligated to enroll.
Approximately 450 colleges have early decision or early action plans, and some have both. Some colleges offer a nonbinding option called single-choice early action, under which applicants may not apply ED or EA to any other college.
