<p>I recently submitted an application to Lafayette college through ED2. But on more research, I found a college which I liked more and which is a better fit. I want to apply ED 2 to this. If I contact admissions, would they generally convert ED to RD? This is really important for me, since there is also the aid factor. Would it have any negative effect on my Lafayette application?</p>
<p>It is easy and not a problem to convert your ED2 app to RD. Just call or email admissions and let them know that’s what you want to do. There is no need to provide details, just let them know you realized you need to apply RD instead of ED2. Don’t wait, because you want to get this done before they actually consider your application in committee, if possible. You should have the same chance of admission in the regular pool you would have had if you had applied RD.</p>
