How "negotiable" is F.A.?

<p>^ I understand that (=FA is “awesome” at both schools) is the situation for American students. But how is it for int’ls?</p>

<p>As I have stated, I have “compared the two schools” and would like to go to Stanford. However, it is hard to say that when, parents don’t really get my intention of going to Stanford, and another (fairly well known) school comes with a FA package that’s $5000~10000 better than the one at Stanford.</p>
