What about a kid whose stats put her “almost” in reach of the common data set stats (low-middling) chance of admission for a school she just loves. The kid needs to have full need met. The school is a private who admits about 30% more students through ED. The kid would be thrilled to be accepted and have need met, as would the parents.

If she got accepted, but didn’t get full need met, she could walk away, right?

And if she got accepted AND got full need met, then it’s a winning situation, right?

Considering ED, but want to know the down side to the above scenario.
