[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The NPC calculator may be one way to address the inequities of ED. However, another non-financial issue is that the fact that ED can be an advantage at most schools compels some kids to hedge their bets and commit to elite schools that aren’t truly their first choice or that aren’t the best fits. Obviously, it’s on the kid to know themselves, do the research, etc., but that can be hard at age 16-17. That’s where the parents and CC need to have a serious discussion with the kid [/quote] I don’t see this as an issue at all. My DD applied to a very realistic ED that she was happy with. She did not apply to any super reach schools. Other students might not want that and it’s fine, but it’s hardly an “issue.” If you are hunting for the “best” (highest ranked) school period, then ED is not for you. And that doesn’t make ED bad or an “issue.”[/quote]
