[quote=Anonymous]Depends on where you are applying. If a school is needs-blind, full-pay doesn’t help. However, if the school is needs-aware, then not applying for aid could be helpful. That said, if you have great stats relative to the school’s applicant pool and you apply early, you may get merit money or financial aid. Full-pay is most helpful at somewhat less selective schools when the applicants stats relative to other applicants is somewhat lacking and the school is choosing its final/marginal candidates. For a good read on this situation, google the NYTimes article on Trinity College. [/quote]
