<p>well, i applied early decision to northwestern and i think i have a decent chance at an acceptance; not great, but decent. however, financial aid is a big deal for me and i would like the option of comparing the financial aid packages from multiple schools, something i cant do if i get accepted in NU early.</p>
<p>so my question is: is there any way to switch my early decision app to a regular decision? i havent gotten any decision or financial aid package from NU yet (they come by the 20th of december), so its not like im trying to wriggle my way out of an early acceptance.</p>
