<p>If anything, my understanding (and this is in regards to any college in general) is that the opposite is true: If financial aid is a consideration then you should apply RD since any ED acceptance is binding. On the other hand, RD is non-binding, plus you can compare FA packages from different schools.</p>
<p>Whichever way you decide to apply, good luck to you.:)</p>
