i looked for this topic but couldn't find anything satisfactory. so...how many of you applied early action/early decision and got in? was it more/less difficult? would you recommend it? i know it's wise to do it if you're positive you want to attend that school but what do y'all think?

I applied early action for Tennessee State* and they sent me an acceptance letter early as well as other important info for admission. It wasn't difficult because I applied online. If u want to apply early, u have to prepare early:
:arrow: Teacher recommendations should be requested early in fairness to your teacher(s).
:arrow: Required essays should be typed in advance if the topic is broad (i.e. What can you contribute to __ University/College). HU and the real HU** had a similar topic...so I tweaked the second essay.
:arrow: All required tests should have been taken at least once(i.e. ACT, SAT, and/or SAT II)
:arrow: Basically u should be prepared with the essentials when/if u apply early. Getting a decision early can give u more time to plan for the other elements of college. You'll know where you're going and how to get there
:arrow: Also, if you haven't taken all of the required classes you can take care of that before/during the second semester of high school! :wink:
*I'll be headin' to the Mecca, however
** Howard University, of course
