The parents’ income is $280K per an earlier post. They are willing to pay for Scripps ED. But they won’t let her apply elsewhere ED, and are requiring the ED application. The OP has been wresting with them for many months on this. I think the OP is from CA, and her parents also don’t want her to go too far away if I remember correctly? So not sure East coast suggestions will get any traction. But the OP would have to concern.
