[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kind of game theory families are pushed into is, IMHO, one of the worst things about this process, which is loaded with bad things. But keeping it to a simple formula can help: [b]1. It is a clear first choice. 2. It is affordable. [/b] It can get more complicated, especially for the highest achieving students and when considering SCEA/REA schools in the mix. But that should be it for most. My strong opinion is the best "non-hook" angle a student can have is full-pay, ED at a need-aware school. [b]If you are a full pay family, and the kid's first choice has ED, you need to use that[/b]. [/quote] I agree with this and would add that I'd definitely encourage ED if my kid wanted a selective SLAC. These schools are so small, get tons of applications right now, and are filing most of their classes with ED applicants. It is a numbers game and much tougher for these schools in RD.[/quote]
