Should I apply ED if I don't know if I can afford it? Like if I get accepted, I'll request financial aid and the rest ill just take out as a loan but if they don't give me financial aid then can I withdraw because I can't afford it? thanks.
@@bobhave2031 you can back out of an ED acceptance if you can’t afford it, schools can understand that. but you should use a financial aid calculator beforehand because you don’t want to be accepted then realize you can’t afford to go
Daniel Heltberg I understand. My major is Biology and I have great grades in all of my science classes. I am also taking three AP science classes next year. So, does that mean colleges will be more likely to look over my regular English course?
@@lafayette2957 First of all, I don't really know much, I inserted my opinion where it was pretty invalid (as I am also a high school student). But I would recommend that you work up that grade. While science is the most important thing for a science major, writing and reading skills are invaluable, mostly, colleges want to see a good GPA. I think above 3.7 unweighted and above 4.2 weighted for a school like Brown. If you want really good chances then, of course, 4 unweighted, 4.5+ weighted, and a near perfect SAT/ACT. Sorry, I hope this helps, good luck!
tmb the 1 there is no replacement, so all of the other aspects hold more weight. Grades, essays, extracurriculars, interviews, portfolios, etc. are still used.
It is not. I believe you are able to submit a research paper as supplementary material, but there is no requirement to submit a graded paper (at least this year).
Unfortunately this video is too vague compared to your How to Get Into UPenn video which is much more detailed. Would love a new one for Brown.

no, it is binding so you are legally required to go if you get in. Brown does offer good financial aid though so look into that
No, ED is not legally binding but it looks really bad if u pull out of an ED agreement
use a financial aid calculator first! brown has one in their website :)

@@theatregirl7851 I'm an Indian student, any idea how can I get into Brown University? In Computer Science Major.
I don't know where to apply for ed. Brown IS my first choice, but I don't think I will get in and I also need great financial aid
My teacher won't allow me to go to Honors English next year. Does this completely diminish my chances of getting in? (I am a sophomore)
No. The admission process is more complex than whether or not you took an honors class. Focus more on your activities and hobbies.

Daniel Heltberg you think I got a chance? I’m in the IB program & have taken 5 AP exams (thinking about taking 3 at least next year along with IB)
Thank you for the information!
You're welcome!
Hi, I believe that the SAT's are no longer a requirement for mos ivy leagues, is that the case. for Brown?
Brown no longer requires them for this year
@@sydneyfessenden6119 so if standardized testing is no longer important
what replaces it?
what will be given more importance?

That's because of the pandemic. It will almost definitely go back once things are getting back to normal.
@@sydneyfessenden6119 i wanna do english honours do i have to take sats? What are the requirements for an English literature student?
I look at the brown website it says nothing about Graded paper from a humanities or social studies class. Is this still a requirement for 2022?
It is not. I believe you are able to submit a research paper as supplementary material, but there is no requirement to submit a graded paper (at least this year).
