[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My D (35ACT, 800/800 Subject tests, 4.2 GPA) only applied EA because we wanted to compare costs. Early decision is too risky if you do NOT qualify for non-need based aid. She applied EA at most places, and regular at the rest. So far, 2 merit awards that essentially gave her a free year of undergrad at each school. Sounds like someone on this thread has a DC who applied ED and may break the contract if the merit aid is not enough. [/quote] Sounds like your DD applied to second tier schools and not first tier. There is a big difference. There are no first tier schools that would be giving out free years of undergrad unless she is the first in her family to go to college and you make less than 60k a year. Which schools are these? Tulane? [/quote]
