<p>I am not sure of your question. The only barrier to ED would be financial. Do you need FA aid? Do you need to compare offers? If need-based FA is not available do you need merit aid? If you answer yes to these questions, ED is probably not the way to go.</p>

<p>If you don’t need FA, or if your financial situation is such that you are assured of need-based aid, then it is feasible to apply ED.</p>

<p>Stats are not part of the deliberation.</p>

<p>Furthermore, if you apply ED and don’t make the first round of acceptances, you may be deferred. This allows you to have a personal relationship with the admissions office and “sweeten the pot” with detailed extras. </p>

<p>My daughter had this experience and was accepted for the RD round.</p>

<p>yes i WOuld be applying for financial aid</p>

4

<p>wait so If I apply for FA I shouldn’t do Ed why? thank you</p>

5

<p>because if accepted ED, you will not have other financial aid offers to compare to (from other schools) as you would RD. You must either take or leave it…</p>
