Early September is a good tome to decide on an Early Decision or Early Action application
Both involve applying by end October and hearing of your decision by mid December.
Early Decision is binding and if accepted you are obligated to enroll.
Early Action is similar but not binding.
To confuse things some schools , namely Harvard , Yale, Princeton and Stanford refer to their early admission program as Restrictive Early Action.
In my opinion Its a good idea to apply early action so you have something in hand before you submit the rest of your applications. You can then increase your focus on the tougher options and remove safety schools from your list.
This is a good option for students who have a clear first choice. The Ivy league schools are a good option for ED applications.
My choices for EA applications are
