<p>Keep in mind that you can deny an admissions offer from NYU even if it is ED if you feel that the financial aid package will put financial stress on you or your family. </p>
<p>“Students will only be released from the Early Decision agreement if they believe their estimated financial aid package does not enable them to attend.”
That is taken almost word for word from:
[Early</a> Decision](<a href=“How to Apply”>How to Apply)</p>
<p>So even if you don’t know that you can afford Stern now, apply ED if you want to and review your financial aid package when you get it.
Good luck!</p>
