<p>Is there a significant difference in financial aid packages for EA vs. RD applicants? I know some colleges have a "priority deadline" for scholarships/grants. I couldn't find anything about this on UMich's website... Anybody here know anything?</p>

<p>UMich is now making it clearer that major merit aids that does not require additional application are only open to EA applicants.

<p>“Be sure to apply early for admission to U-M. And if you feel you may need financial assistance, apply for financial aid early too. In general, equal consideration for scholarships is given to eligible students who:
-have been admitted to U-M by February 1 (note that a few scholarships have different deadlines)”</p>

<p>I just found this. So it’s EA or bust…</p>

<p>Also look at the scholarship page on engineering website:

<p>If there is something left, they may offer it to RD admitted students.</p>
