| Note: Early-decision options are intended for those students
who are interested in St. Mary's College as their first choice. Applicants
agree, regardless of circumstance, to accept an early offer of admission
and withdraw applications to other colleges. Applying early decision
does not improve one's chances of admission. We encourage only those

apply Early Decision. |
