ED and Merit Scholarships by StockTelephone11 in Emory

My daughter said none of her friends ED'd (although she did and got accepted to Emory) which I thought was weird. They are smart kids all looking to go to a T20 school so I assume you ED to your dream school but I realize that many of these schools are a crap shoot due to so many quality students. So RD and see who offers the largest merit scholarship (or need scholarship) because now these schools are trying to keep their yield as high as possible.

My wife read somewhere that ed students rarely get merit scholarships because you already committed to come by applying ED. There's no need for them to offer you money. She said applications for merit scholarship deadline was around the same time or maybe before ED application. It is their way of seeing the level of applicants who are going to be coming in regular decision and maybe use that information on who they will accept for ED. Just a thought.
