I suppose one could, but there are ramifications for that as well. It might look like interest in Tulane has decreased, so when they come back around to making the decision it might appear negative. Sure, the student could say it is about the merit award but who knows if a couple months from now that will be remembered or whatever. Also space in the incoming class could be tighter if admissions have been robust up to that point, and merit money might actually be harder to come by. Just some things to think about.
