3. Have you considered applying to schools where you might be in the running for merit aid? If you truly have the stuff to gain admittance to UPenn, you likely have the stuff to get a decent merit award at other schools.
4. Do you think that your financial aid packages (even if your family income is really $450K) will be different at a school that meets full need if you are accepted ED? If so, you are wrong. If the school meets full need (as UPenn does) your financial aid package should be the same if you apply Regular decision.

your fourth comment was what I was really getting at. I was under the impression that FA packages were "Better" RD. I guess I just assumed that and what that really means is one is able to compare and possibly negotiate?
My parents have just been hinting that I'll need a scholarship/FA to go to the schools I want because of my siblings... Guess they're wrong.
