From what I know (from counselors/Googling around), colleges will let you off ED penalty-free if you can prove that you are unable to pay. But if Cornell decides that you only need x amount of money in aid and your parents are able to but don’t want to pay that much, I think it will be much harder to release yourself from ED.

I’m kind of worried, applied ED to Cornell because I love it, but I’m not sure my fin aid package will suffice, and they’re kind of set on paying $20k for my brother’s tuition as well.

I’d also like to know if anyone knows when the financial aid stuff is coming.
