Chance Me (and match): HS Senior, 95 GPA, 10 APs, 2 College Courses, 1510 SAT, <$15k [ME resident, $5k from parents, best NPC $15k, physics]

If you are getting NPCs above what you are able to pay, then you cannot ED as it’s binding. If a school says your cost is $20k and you apply knowing that, then you’re stuck.

Assuming you are a Junior as you’ve missed many EDs.

What is your family income ? Is Questbridge a possibility ? Your family income should be $65k or less I believe. I’m guessing given your NOCs it’s not possible but worth an ask.

Since you go to a private academy and are rural, talk to your counselor about success stories. They likely have great insights.
