Best Place to ED (low act, solid everything else)

@MaybeIvy2020 , one more urging you to understand your parents’ financial situation and exactly how that could impact especially an ED choice. As an example, when D19 applied last year we had had lifestyle changes which meant for the years relevant for application, we were low(ish) income, but high assets. The NPC on the school website had indicated grants and scholarships around half the COA for D19’s need blind but not full need met ED school. Of course, that was based on income questions, and when the full application including CSS profile had been assessed, her actual financial offer was exactly $0.00. We had expected this. From what others have said you will still get aid with the numbers you provided; if you however are expecting a much better financial aid package from an ED school than you actually get, it really complicates matters. Ensure you properly understand what you are committing to when you sign an ED application.
