<p>Based on what you posted in <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/financial-aid-scholarships/1569058-release-ed-because-financial-reasons.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/financial-aid-scholarships/1569058-release-ed-because-financial-reasons.html</a> (post #6), your ED dream school would leave you with $100,000 in debt, which most here would consider far too much (and require your parents to co-sign, which they presumably are not very willing to do). If it is that unaffordable, it would not be a good idea to apply there at all, much less ED.</p>
