Negotiation Rejected
Hi all! I attempted to negotiate my scholarship at a school I'd really like to go to, and they said that they're unable to increase my aid at this time. Any advice on whether I should just thank them for their consideration or try to push it more? If I did push it, what would I say? Thanks. ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Re: Negotiation Rejected
If you're just asking for more with nothing additional to offer then I probably wouldn't push it again just yet. Try to negotiate some scholarships up from other schools of similar rank first, then go back to the table with those offers.cats4evr wrote:Hi all!

At the end of the day, they aren't going to withdraw your acceptance. You can say you'd love to go to X school but Y school is offering a more substantial aid package and you're wondering if they can come up at all?
