Applying under the Early Action (EA) Plan at Curry College comes with benefits...2,000 of them to be exact! All students who apply and complete their application by the December 1 - EA deadline will have their application reviewed by the Admission Committee and will be notified of the outcome shortly. In addition, if a student is admitted under the EA Plan they will receive a $2,000 Early Action Award, worth $8,000 over four years!

EA is a non-binding so applicants who are admitted will have until May 1 to secure their enrollment. Admission under EA Plan is based on the student's academic and extra-curricular profile. Minimum requirements are determined by the Committee. If Curry College is one of a student's top choices, then they are encouraged to apply under the EA Plan.

After review by the Admission Committee, an applicant will be notified within two weeks of one of the following decisions: Admission as an EA candidate qualifying the student for the $2,000 EA Award; Defer to Regular Decision with an offer of admission; Defer to Regular Decision with a request for additional information; or denial.
