I thought my chances at Northwestern were pretty bad actually. Im straight outa UG.

In fact I don't ED'ing to CCN is a good choice unless you are splitter.
True, but I thought the same thing before going through a cycle and learning about all the schools/financial situation. The things I learned from my cycle made me happy I didn't ED.r6_philly wrote:Not everyone needs to consider $. People who can afford it ED for peace of mind.pereira6 wrote:See: My cycle.

I agree with DF that Northwestern would be a legit option with a good chance of cash. I didn't apply because of my 0 work experience.
I also started a thread in November about EDing to C/N. Although I was waitlisted all over the place, including those schools, I am very glad I didn't. I enjoyed seeing what my cycle gave me, and what kind of $ I had a chance for. ED=No $, which isn't the best scenario.

Yes.Desert Fox wrote:http://northwestern.lawschoolnumbers.co ... ,8&type=jdadmisionquestion wrote:I thought my chances at Northwestern were pretty bad actually. Im straight outa UG.

No W/E might fuck you, or they might give you the Differ one year then get a fullride deal. But Ithink you may be a little low for that.
You might get 45K at michigan. 50K at Penn. 70ish at UVA if you get past their yield protect. 67 at Duke.
And you like you got a 1/3rd chance at CC and a 50% at NYU RD. And looking at ED at those schools it doesn't seem to change much. I think EDing will give you no boost, yet will limit your choices.
You can apply to all at the same time. If ED is not supposed to give you a boost, then he might not get in anyway, then at the same time he will be free to pursue whatever other school.pereira6 wrote:
Yes.
For vanilla applicants, ED isn't the biggest of boosts. Just see where your options go, OP. If you ED and get passed to the RD pool or rejected, you are then late to apply to other schools and get a fair shake.
My bad for not totally understanding ED. Thanks for correcting me on that phillyman!r6_philly wrote:You can apply to all at the same time.

So if ED boost - then he gets the CCN he wants.
If ED doesn't boost - then no effect.
Edited for clarity
No problem! Actually if you got into UVA with $$$ before you hear back from ED, you can always withdraw the ED and take the money. OP is not going to need the ED for MVP (because it puts money out of play) so why not use it on a school he really wants, it won't hurt because he wouldn't get any merit money anyway, or highly unlikely.pereira6 wrote: My bad for not totally understanding ED.

Your child is studying at PENN? 
ED CCN of your choice, and apply everywhere down.admisionquestion wrote:I dont get what your going on about.
This. Pick C or N and ED. (Does Chicago ED?) Your LSAT isn't doing you any favors in that bracket.whymeohgodno wrote:Don't see why you think OP would be getting into one of CCN without ed. He is well below LSAT median at every single one of them and is only above median without hitting 75th GPA.bhan87 wrote:Don't ED. One of CCN should take you and you'll want to use schollies from MVP down to negotiate your aid
He will definitely snag MVP with $$ though. But if OP is dead set on one of CCN he should ED.
