Wharton($$$) Vs Babson($)

Hi, I was admitted to Wharton through ED earlier last month(legacy), however my dream school is Babson. ED is binding however with Babson's reputation do you think it would be worth dropping to my commitment if I am admitted. Wharton is a great program however, from what I've seen Babson has much more to offer, with real world business executive professors and a great entrepreneurship program. I also received no scholarships or financial aid from Wharton, however I believe Babson will much more likely give me scholarship money. I only applied to these two schools, please share your opinions.

Lmao, can you even wait that long before you drop your Wharton commit? I am pretty sure you cannot wait more than two weeks, which doesn't give you time to find out what happened with the Babson decision.

Go to Penn, It's a much better school then Babson. Also...

1) ED contract is binding, you can't get out of it unless you're from a destitute family and don't get enough aid.

2) Your parents make good money so they can easily afford penn.
