<p>My son has been accepted to both and is trying to decide. FA package from ND better, will NW match it?</p>
<p>Typically NU does not.</p>
<p>Quite a few people have posted asking, and many tried to call. All have gotten the answer either through other people, or through their calls that NU does not match Fin. Aid.</p>
<p>In 2011, my son got about $10k more from Vanderbilt than from NU. We appealed, and NU matched(?) its aid by raising its scholarship (free money) for about 3k and adding $7k loan.</p>
<p>That’s the first I’ve heard from anyone about matching. Although, I guess I wouldn’t necessarily consider a loan matching since it’s really still your money. I guess if you go to them with a specific amount with proof, you might have a slim chance. It’s worth a shot I guess!</p>
