What happens when you get accepted in ED but don't go?

<p>The headline is obvious</p>

<p>The only terms you can do that is if it is absolutely financially unaffordable, which you would have to be very clear about and contact the admissions office right away. Otherwise, if you don’t go it is going against federal law, and you could be blacklisted from multiple colleges with your admission rescinded from each.</p>

<p>naa not true. Talk to your guidance counselor. There are ways to get out of an early decision admittance. </p>

<p>Use your search buttons. This has been answered many, many times. Unfortunately, many answers have been dead wrong as well. In the simples of terms, with the addition of some language in the Common Application, students are not forced to attend a school they cannot afford. Hence, the student has the right to REJECT the offer of admission or delay until a financial aid is joined to the admission offer. </p>

<p>Despite claims to the contrary, that does NOT mean there is a shopping window opened by “negotiations.” You do not have to go, but you have to decide before the deadlines. Trying to obtain a release after accepting an offer might come with certain conditions. In general private schools, will always release a student to attend a public university. </p>

<p>Of course, college admissions is full of culturally-inclined cheats and scammers. </p>

<p>No one can force you to go to any school. If you just don’t show up when school starts, do you mean after you get accepted ED and filled out the commitment papers. Or if you just did not respond to the ED offer at all? Do you mean if you found another school you preferred that also accepted you and are going there? Or just deciding not to go to school at all? </p>

<p>Personally,
I feel that you should only apply ED if you are 100% positive you plan to attend regardless of the FA package. If you cannot afford attend without knowing your FA, apply RD. </p>

<p>Hehe poop </p>
