<p>still looking for some help</p>

<p>hey guy, your EC look like me, and your apply school also like me
If you want to get good news from list,I suggest you shoot Lafayette
Good Luck. BTW Lafayette ED rolling,you may pay less than 3000USD</p>

<p>the problem is that a freind of mine told me that lafayette usually admits no more than 2 internationals under ED every year... This seemed to me rather discouraging...</p>

<p>Your friend is wrong,LAFA admits more internationals under ED,past year,they admit 2 chinese student on ED,you know....... but RD,they admit many many international student</p>

<p>My mistake not every year - this year
no more than 2 internationals Ed - no mistake :(
Btw jurd If as your your EC look like me, and your apply school also like me you can send me PM with a mail address or some kind of messenger so that we can transfer some info about Colleges and other stuff</p>
