[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC applied EA to Yale and was deferred, and EA to flagship and was admitted. He applied RD to three more ivies, a safety school, and [b]several top LACs.[/b] Two of the RD schools have already admitted him; one with considerable merit aid. So we are breathing a sigh of relief. We are waiting to see if he receives other admissions. I think its nice to have at least one admission in your pocket so you can relax a bit; hence I think the EA was a good thing, but I doubt it will make a difference in making his decision.[/quote] There is no way your DC received substantial merit aid at a top LAC. They do mot offer merit aid (unless your DC won a big scholarship from Duke, Vandy or U of Chicago). Those are only given to the very top applicants. And I would not consider Duke or Vandy a "top" LAC, although both are very good schools. [/quote]
