[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Any school you would need an ED boost for admissions to is unlikely to give you merit aid. THAT is really the problem, isn't it?[/quote] No, I think the challenging point is those schools that are in the sort of 30-50% acceptance rate that have ED1 and ED2 and offer quite a bit of merit aid or for in-state virginians the case of W&M where you might want to wait on merit aid offers from other schools but have W&M as a back-up but ED would really help you get in. There are more "on the fence" cases than you realize.[/quote] Are you going to go to W&M if you get in without merit aid? Then apply ED. Are you going to go elsewhere and take merit aid? Then don't apply ED. [b]Colleges don't give merit aid as a reward for HS scholarship. They give it to get the students they want to choose them over "better" schools.[/b] It's their money, after all.
