got accepted into Elon for early decision--please please please help!

<p>ok so I just found out that if you get accepted into Elon for Early Decision,
you have to go to Elon and withdraw all the other applications.</p>

<p>soo..... im panicking right now because I'm already enrolled in another school and
I don't know what to do. I tried to look it up on their website but it didn't say anything
about my being able to withdraw my application.
I can't go to Elon because I can't afford to go there and all that other stuff,
and if I cancel my enrollment to the other college I'll have to pay like $500.</p>

<p>the payment was due January 10th which is wayyyyyyy over due,
and I just got the voice mail from the dean or whoever.... and I accidentally deleted it
so I don't even know what to do. at all.</p>

<p>am i screwed? please please help, I just want to withdraw my application from Elon...</p>

<p>If you can’t afford Elon, it’s okay! let them know you can’t afford and will allow you to cancel Elon.</p>

<p>Wait, you didn’t know that early decision was binding? Why’d you do it?</p>

<p>Didn’t you read the ED agreement before you signed it?</p>

<p>If you haven’t gotten a financial aid award yet, you just have to wait until you do so you know for sure you can’t afford it. If you’ve already gotten the finaid award and it’s not enough, you lucked out big time because that’s the ONLY reason you can turn down an ED acceptance! If you end up getting a full scholarship or something, you have to go to Elon.</p>

<p>You need to see your high school college counselor this morning and get help to manage this right away.</p>

<p>You didn’t just find out ED was binding, because you were clearly told this here on CC back in October. I suspect you are trolling us.</p>
