<p>“Don’t EVER apply Early Decision unless you have the financial resources to pay for it. Seriously.”</p>
<p>i beg to differ. you probably already know how much aid you can get when you’re applying. if you get less than you expect or you need, you can always appeal and make a strong enough case to increase your aid, and if not, you can apply to other schools while waiting for the appeal to be resulted. if you love a school passionately enough to apply ED and if you think you’re a fit for there, then definitely apply ED.</p>
