[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our family is just getting started in the college process, so forgive me if I’m totally wrong here, but this article has me confused. I thought for ED, you could use the college’s aid calculation tool to get a sense of what aid you might get and then if accepted ED, you could wait until the aid information was received before pulling your other applications, and reject the ED offer if it wasn’t in the ballpark of what the school calculator had indicated. This article seems to say that if you apply ED but also apply for FA and get in, you are obligated to pull your other applications before knowing your FA result and have committed to go regardless of FA result—although the article does indicate colleges would not be able to force a student to attend a school they couldn’t attend. So which is correct as far as ED if you need FA?[/quote] The former is correct.[/quote] Well then I wish someone had told that to the girl in the article so she could have applied ED to Barnard like she wanted to. Glad she got a full scholarship to Wesleyan though. [/quote]
