Early Action (EA) Deadline: Nov. 1
Early Action is a non-binding admission program that allows you to get an admission decision sooner. Admission decisions include: admit, deferred to Regular Decision, or denied.
Early Action applicants are not limited to just applying to Santa Clara but must ensure adherence to the program rules of other colleges. Decisions are mailed to students in late December. If admitted in Early Action, applicants have until May 1 to accept or decline enrollment. Denied applicants are not reconsidered during Regular Decision.
