This compares two rates the school published for two groups of applicants. The Early Decision pool is not a random slice of the applicants — recruited athletes, legacy applicants and QuestBridge matches are counted inside it — so this is a difference between the school’s two pools, not a multiplier on your own chances.

Does applying early decision to Flagler College help?

Not on Flagler College's published figures. Early Decision applicants were admitted at 70.1% and everyone else at 78.7%, a 0.9x ratio, which is no real edge. Because recruited athletes and legacy applicants also sit inside the Early Decision pool, an applicant outside those groups gets no visible odds benefit for spending the one binding application here.

Is early decision at Flagler College binding?

Yes. Early Decision is binding wherever it is offered, Flagler College included: you may apply Early Decision to only one school, and if admitted you commit to attend and withdraw your other applications. The usual exception is an aid offer your family cannot afford, so check the costs on this page before you apply.

Admitted SAT · middle 50% · College Scorecard 2024

Half of admitted students scored inside this range. It is the admitted band, not a minimum and not a cutoff, and it covers the whole entering class rather than the Early Decision round alone.

What families actually pay (AY 2023–24)

Early Decision is binding, so accepting one ends the option of comparing two aid offers. These are the published averages before that choice is made.

Family income under $30k$21,733
Family income $30k–$48k$23,129
Family income $48k–$75k$25,521
Family income $75k–$110k$29,663
Family income over $110k$37,909

Average paid by students receiving federal aid, by family income (College Scorecard).

International students are not eligible for U.S. federal aid, so they are not in this cohort and typically pay closer to the sticker price.

Across the 8 recorded cycles from 2017 to 2024, Flagler College's overall acceptance rate rose from 56.6% to 80.8%. That is the whole entering class — Early Decision, Early Action and Regular Decision together — not the Early Decision round on its own.
