<p>I am planning on applying ED next fall. I also would like to apply for some of the academic scholarships (haven't decided ArtSci or Olin yet...) If I am admitted ED, will it decrease my chances of receiving scholarships? I do not need financial aid, but any money taken off would be nice.</p>
<p>Thanks for your time.</p>
<p>I dont believe it has an effect either way… I was admitted ED and was lucky enough to be named a Danforth Scholar (ask your school to nominate you b/c it’s not online), and during the interview/when they notified me how much of my tuition was to be covered, they did not know I was an ED student… there weren’t that many ED students as scholarship weekend, so If anything, it would hurt your scholarship app because the scholarship are somewhat part of an effort to convince the RD students to come (while the ED ones have to, haha). However, I dont really think being an ED student has an effect on your scholarship app anyway.</p>
<p>I met a lot of ED students at finalist weekend, so I doubt it. And some of them received the full scholarships too.</p>
