Carolyn, I don’t think anything’s wrong with applying ED to a match or sure bet-- see, I’m trying to get us all to ditch the “safety school” lingo! The schools you’re looking at are not schools with Mickey Mouse academics. You of all people have done the research and know your daughter and what she needs academically.

As we keep saying here on CC, academics is just a part of the mix. Location, size, social scene, political bent of the student body, so many factors are involved. If the fit is right and money isn’t an issue, then why not apply ED to a sure bet?

Trust me, the stress you’ll save from December to April is worth it.
