Success Appealing Financial Aid?

Has anyone had success appealing their financial aid. I got accepted to Northeastern in February. This week I heard back from a majority of my other schools, and many of them gave me more money than NEU, one being BU. I sent them an email with by BU offer, and expenses that I wasn’t able to show through the CSS (my parents provide school tuition and living costs for some of my family back in Africa). Basically, I am wondering if people in the past have been successful appealing for more money. I emailed them a few days ago and I included that it is my #1 school. Thanks in advance for any input and Congrats to everyone who got into NEU, or any college on that matter. :slight_smile:
