Financial Aid School A vs. B

Paying for College
1

<p>School's A and B are very similar academically and in close proximity</p>

<p>I am a current student at school B looking to transfer.</p>

<p>School A offered me a 12,000 yearly transfer scholarship. School B offered me nothing. Even with the scholarship, school A will be more expensive than school B. Is there any way I can talk to the admissions office at school B to re consider financial aid? Is there a way to tell them that I am considering transferring and got a large scholarship from another school, and see if they will give me any financial aid to stay?</p>

<p>I'm wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation and can help</p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>I doubt it, they will know they are still all in a lower price. Is that offer need based or merit?</p>

<p>It depends on the school. Most schools, no. You won’t know about this particular school unless you call and ask.</p>

<p>Unless you recruited and they really want you, it is not likely they will increase the grant/scholarship for that reason.</p>
