Belle, I do not recommend ED to any school if you need financial aid. You will not be able to compare packages and there is no telling what a given college will define as need and what the composition of the package would be. I have seen aid packages filled with unconscionable amounts of loans. The only possible exception may be the very top schools that guarantee all grants for those below a certain income bracket, and you are sure you fall in that threshhold. And those schools do not tend to offer ED. You really do not want to be in the situation of having to back out of ED due to a lower than expected FA package.

Kenyon is a popular school here in the NE among my kids’ peers and parents and kids alike seem to really like it. My kids’ schools really tend to push this school as a quality college.
