Hi Sakshi, Early Action as the name suggests, you will be notified of the decisions in a month. Regular and non early action rounds take longer. Make sure you submit your entire application material if you apply under Early Action. Standford's early action has certain norms to be followed, you cannot apply to any other university under Early Action. Check the policy here http://admission.stanford.edu/application/decision_process/restrictive.html and also check the link given by Chetna S. You have time until Nov 1, all the best!

Hi Sakshi,
You need to contact the institute officials personally for specific admission details as it differs from one college to another.
