[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doesn't applying ED vastly undermine potential merit awards? Why does the school offer merit when it knows the student must attend?[/quote] Not necessarily. Depends on the school. Some even offer guaranteed merit for ED students. [/quote] Interesting. Which schools do that?[/quote] NP but Grinnell does. I think Oberlin does regardless of whether you apply early or not.[/quote] My DS applied ED to Grinnell. We attended a virtual info session about ED beforehand. They were very clear that applicants in ED are treated the same (will not get less merit) than RD applicants. There is a 10k merit guarantee. My DS got additional merit that brought the total merit to around the average merit award, probably what he would’ve gotten RD. [/quote] Congrats![/quote]
