<p>first --a school is a business entity. always keep that in mind. the awarding of scholarships is not necessarily a charitable event.</p>
<p>if some kid applies ED he/she is committed to attend. why would you use a scholarship in this situation?
if the school has a limited number of scholarships and is in competition with the ivys or other top 20s, why not save your ammo to land this applicant?</p>
