<p>RD or ED does not affect your Princeton financial aid package at all because it is need-based. Basically, if your daughter gets into Princeton, Princeton will do its best to make sure she can attend. The best part of Princeton's financial aid program is that 100% of need (cost of attendance - expected family contribution) is met WITHOUT LOANS. The average Princeton student graduates with only around $2000 dollars in debt. To find out how much money your daughter would receive, use Princeton's financial aid calculator. </p>
