Is it possible to apply early decision, and then if I don’t get the amount of aid I need, reject it? It sounds horrible.



As posters in this thread have mentioned, you really shouldn’t apply ED to any school if finances are a consideration. I understand that you’re looking for some kind of edge, admissions-wise, but schools generally take an ED commitment pretty seriously. There could possibly be negative repercussions if you tried to back out of that commitment because you were dissatisfied with the FA package. Like jude_36, my D also didn’t apply anywhere ED due to financial concerns.

BTW, (and I don’t normally participate in “Chances” threads) your stats, especially your GPA and EC’s look pretty good, in my opinion and I would think that you’d have a pretty good shot at Kenyon.

Whatever you do, good luck to you.:)
