[quote=Anonymous]Fin aid is up on DC's "dream" college's website, and we're about $8,000 short of what the other, less preferred option costs. The two colleges are very similar and could almost be considered "rivals" (mid sized Catholic schools) so I'm wondering if it's plausible to go to college A and say, "DC really wants to go here, but college B is cheaper. Can you do anything?" and negotiate in a sense. We got nothing (except loans) from both colleges so this is all merit money we're talking here. College A actually gave less in merit money than B, but their COA is also less. And should the student do this, or the parent?[/quote]
