ED2 and Merit Scholarships

Is it fair to say that someone who is waiting to hear back on ED1 school ( results typically come back mid-December) will miss out on merit scholarships at Vandy if that is their ED2 school?

I didn’t see this until it’s too late unfortunately. But, you could have submitted your RD app by Dec 1 (thus qualifying in time for merit scholarships) and then switching your app to ED2 if you get deferred/not selected by your ED1 school. On the plus side, Vandy is super stingy with their merit aid, even lower chance than of getting an acceptance.
