accepting a financial aid package

Paying for College
1

<p>I was accepted to one school through Early Action and am still waiting for other schools to release the decisions in April. This Early Action school sent me an email with an initial need-based financial aid package (their merit based packages are also coming out in early April) and they’re asking me to sign it if I agree. If I sign it, does it mean that I am matriculating to this school ?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Just contact the school. Ask for them to extend the time until the May 1 matriculation decision deadline.</p>
