[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, this is where google is your friend.  You do not need to be full pay to have an ed acceptance.  You can turn down an early decision offer if the financial aid awarded is insufficient.  [/quote]

Insufficient by whose standards?  Seems like an easy out if it’s just an arbitrary opinion.  [/quote]

Exactly.  It says if they offer you a package that is within the net price calculator, you don't have an out.  And if you try to get an out without proving unforeseen circumstances, they report you to other colleges.  Not to mention, you are leading your kid on big time.  Regional directors have flat out said that they do offer a package but are you willing to give that up for all the great RD packages that might come your way?  I sure wouldn't.

Most ED students are legacy, full pay, and invited athletes.  URM and athletes will get the fantastic packages. If your child doesn't have a hook, your packages won't look as good in ED than they would in RD.  That is why it pays to be filthy rich in this country.  It sucks.

That said, there are many schools that do EA and they are worth doing.  [/quote]
