Hi all,

This might be a silly question but figured I would go ahead and ask. Has anyone ever successfully negotiated with a school for a higher financial aid package? Either by reaching out and arguing your case to your top school or letting them know you got a better package at a comparable school but are more interested in theirs? I've read through old threads and seen some people allude to doing that. 

I figure that it can't hurt. The worst that happens is the schools says no, and therefore I can't afford it but you never know if you don't ask. Looking for tips from anyone who may have successfully done this.

Thanks!
