I regret applying ed to a college and I haven’t received a decision yet

I applied to a college in DC that costs a ton of money. While my parents can afford it, I’m starting to regret applying to it since it costs so much. I just received a letter from one of my safety schools granting me an $80k scholarship and I genuinely really like the school. I honestly am regretting applying ED to the school in Washington and I honestly don’t know what to do. Is it possible/reasonable to ask the DC school to cancel my application? I don’t want it to reflect badly on my college counselor or school.

Ask the school if you can switch to RD

I would call the school where you applied ED. Given that it is too late today, I would call them first thing tomorrow. See if you can either withdraw your application or change it to RD.

Talk with your parents.
If they agree with you, call the school in DC and ask to switch to RD.

Simply withdraw the ED supplement & ask to remain as an RD candidate for admission.

Check the portal. They should let you withdraw your application or move it to regular decision.
