<p>That’s my point. If the student applies RD to a bunch of places, there may be (depending on the school) room to negotiate and of course turn down “bad” offers.</p>
<p>My son is on a college tour at a university that says point blank: you cannot negotiate ED FA packages and we may negotiate RD FA packages, especially if you have a better FA package from another selective college. Very interesting in our opinion. But even so, look up the international students office as well as the FA page.</p>
