[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would a college give you merit aid if you are applying ED? What incentive do they have to lure with aid?[/quote] Great question, but you presume that the only purpose of awarding a merit based scholarship is to attract students. I do not know for certain, but I imagine that retention of the top students may be a consideration. One would be less likely to transfer out if receiving a renewable merit scholarship. Also, merit scholarship awards have parameters/qualifications. If a student falls within those standards, then he or she should be given fair consideration for such scholarship whether applying ED or RD. [/quote]
