Syracuse Merit Aid

I recently was accepted to Syracuse, and was selected to receive (apparently) the highest form of automatic merit aid of $12,000 a year. I was invited to apply for the Coronat Scholarship, but I was not selected as a finalist. I am wondering if any one else had experience with appealing/asking for more Syracuse financial aid? For example, do they consider other college’s offers? Anything would be appreciated, thanks!!

We are in the same boat. Would love to hear advice!

Same boat too. Receiving $12000 per year scholarship is nice, but tuition and room & board is $56000 plus $3000 for books and personal and travel. $47000 per year is not affordable to us. :frowning:
