Here’s an application that sometimes gets overlooked in all the hoopla surrounding the “big name” applications of Early Decision and Regular Decision:

Early Decision II!

The binding Early Decision II application (deadline: January 1) has so much to recommend it:

  • a firm date on which you’ll hear back from us: February 15 (and no later),
  • a chance for those who discovered and fell in love late with Wake Forest University (a 5,400-undergraduate, test-optional, liberal-arts school in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, with a 10:1 student-faculty ratio, 50 majors, and 60 minors) to apply Early Decision, and
  • the opportunity to show your interest in and commitment to us.

It may not get as much attention as the others, but it’s pretty great.

So, give it some consideration. Sometimes the sequel is just as good as the original!
