[quote=Anonymous]I agree with visit one more time before applying ED. I would also suggest having DC work out a full 4year schedule for the desired school and at least one other (e.g. your top choice and state school). Sometimes actually looking at the coursework helps kids realize how different the programs are. Also, how selective is the school and how competitive is DC? My kid #2 chose not to ED because there were several programs that were interesting and they could still apply RD (and they got into the two T10 they applied to, and didn’t pick them in the end). Kids change a lot between now and May 1. Sometimes it’s better to have options to choose between, rather than committing early. Ask your DC to think about how different they are now compared to 1 year ago. They will change that much again this year.[/quote]
