<p>Is Amherst more generous in awarding RD applicants than they do with ED applicants? Thanks!</p>
<p>In general that's the case, yeah, which is why Harvard stopped doing the ED program.</p>
<p>At the very least, I know numerous people who were able to call up a college and tell them, "So-and-so University is giving me this much financial aid, etc." and were able to increase their financial aid rewards that way.</p>
<p>Remember: ED means you are going, no matter what. So they don't have to be as generous! And that's true with all schools that have ED.</p>
<p>Thanks for the replies! think i'll still ED;)</p>
