[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Early decision is a rich kid advantage.  The rest of us can’t commit until we know what kind of scholarship or aid we’re offered. [/quote]

If your kid is not receiving need based financial aid, they are a rich kid.  Get out of your bubble![/quote]

I guess you think people raising kids on  $200,000 a year in a high COL place have just as much disposable income as people making millions with millions of assets and investments and inheritance.

Your definition of rich is naive. And lumping them together is silly. [/quote]

And you thinking ED is a scam is silly.  It's a tool that anyone can use.  Run the NPC and decide if you are able/willing to pay that for school X.  If not, don't apply ED.  Then again, why apply at all, because the NPC doesn't change for RD.

It’s not a scam. It’s affirmative action for wealthy people. [/quote]

DP: If you can't afford the NPC, you can't afford the school. Period. No matter when you apply. A wealthier family, or a family that saved more, or a kid who gets a bunch of outside scholarships might be able to afford school you can't afford. That has nothing to do with ED.[/quote]
