[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Maybe they booked this vacation a year ago? A lot of trips are non-refundable. You don't know -and a trip to the Caribbean is a fraction of the cost of college multiplied by four years. Also, a family's financial situation can change. Let it rest. [/quote][/b]

get real .The ED contract is signed by the parents and the student in front of the high school college counselor whose job it is to make SURE the parents know that ED is BINDING.  The colleges don't like it when students violate the contract.  The high school doesn't like it. The college counselor doesn't like it and may refuse to help the student with future applications (sending LOC and transcripts) and yes you are hurting the chances of your kids' fellow classmates.  To violate the contract does impact upon the school's reputation and may impact - as noted above - on chances for students to get into the university the next year.  See mailing that Sidwell had to send around above.[/quote][b] Even so, stay in your own lane. [/quote][/b]

I'm in my own lane.  I am not OP.  I am responding to the idiot talking about booking a vacation and how that somehow excuses the ED contract. [/quote]
DS accepted his ED1 school. While I’m certain I knew he applied ED1, neither of us remember the actual signing of the agreement. Certainly not in person with the counselor. Not sure what or when the counselor signed. I’m just pointing out that it’s not the holy ritual that pp seems to think it is. [/quote]

DP. It's clear and short. I remember signing,  but, even if I forgot about the act of signing,  I would have read what it said at the time and noted tge binding nature. It's not like some long website agreement tgat people check and move on. It's short and clear. Also, in our case, DD's counselor also double checked on that. I think the counselor also has to sign that they made sure the family understands. [/quote]
