ED Placement Decisions Now Online for Early Applicants


A limited number of spots in each course have been reserved for early applicants. As in previous years, returning ED students received priority if they applied early. Based on the number and relative strength of other early applications, your application may have been deferred to a standard application if no early acceptance decision was possible. In this case, your online account will display your application status as Standard (Early Deferred).

If you have been offered early placement, your notice is now available in your online account. This notice includes ONLY course placement.

Early placement information does NOT include:

  • Payment and notification forms
  • Tuition balance, including any financial aid award
  • Explorations information

On April 27, 2018, ATDP will mail out your acceptance packet which will contain complete information. Please ensure your mailing address will be reachable, and watch for your packet to arrive in early May.

Please do NOT call the ATDP office regarding your placement status. We cannot release placement information or make course changes over the phone.
