[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^isnt doing. Personally, I hate ED. The only time I can see it is if it was someone’s lifelong dream school. [/quote] Why do you "hate ED"? Whole point of ED is it should be your top choice or at the bare minimum one of your top choices, and definately a school you would be thrilled to attend. It's okay if you don't have a single school that rises to the top, then you simply don't ED anywhere, like many people[/quote] ED is repugnant because it’s a tool for schools to retain wealthy students. Other very worthy students are cut out from the process entirely. [/quote] [b]Not true-[/b]-you can get an estimate of your financial aid at ED. We're far from wealthy--100k HHI in the DMV, family of 4 and we did ED because the NPC told us the college would be affordable for us.[/quote] +1. All you have to do is file the FAFSA or CSS early. But people want to believe the liberal line without doing their own research.[/quote] +1000 Largely people want to complain that their kid didn't get into a school with only a 5-10% acceptance rate (ie a highly rejective school). ED or not, it's still challenging to gain admission. For most of those schools, ED includes sports admits and legacy (if it's a thing for them) so 600 gain admission thru ED but 250-300 of those are sports admits, so the ED acceptance rate in reality is nowhere as good as it seems.
