Don’t beat yourself up too much, @raincat. Lafayette was always ranked no. 1 or no. 2, for our son, and we visited early and often and met every deadline EARLY. Didn’t matter in the end with regard to the Marquis.

We did receive a LOT of communication encouraging him to apply EDII, but that would have been biting off more than we could chew financially without a guarantee of the scholarship. Maybe the adcoms thought we were bluffing when we told them we couldn’t afford the school with out some merit money, or maye he’ll be accepted with enough FA that it’s still affordable, but if their own net price calculator says differently, I have to think that’s not very likely. Fortunately, he has some other outstanding choices as of now.

Best of luck to you and your son!
