transfer and financial aid

Paying for College
1

<p>hey, i got into uchicago transfer, but they offered about 9k less than GW. what makes their offer even worse is that some of my credits do not transfer over and it would probably take me 3 years to graduate from uchicago and 2 years to graduate from my current school. overall its about a 50k loss to go to chicago.</p>

<p>i want to go to chicago, but they're really putting me in a difficult position. is there any way i can appeal this offer. it's not like GW is a cheap school, either, so i dont see why uchicago's offer would be so far off...</p>

<p>from what i've heard, u of chicago is REALLY bad with financial aid.</p>

<p>you can try calling up and meeting w/someone from financial aid... that might help!</p>

<p>good luck!</p>

<p>Yeah, I speak from experience when I say that Chicago is not the most generous with financial aid. However, they do welcome appeals.</p>
