Which University I should apply to ED as an International student? [who needs financial aid]

I don’t think this is the best early strategy if one of those schools is not the top choice. Yes, they’re need blind, but as a result everyone wanting aid applies driving acceptance rates even lower.

Bottom line, acceptance will be a challenge regardless. Apply early to the top choice college that meets full need. There is no maximizing acceptance strategy to pursue.
