As mentioned above, much of a school’s interest in negotiating will stem from supply-and-demand dynamics. If fewer students plan to attend a given school, that institution will have increased incentive to retain the students who show an interest in staying. From there, the process for each school differs slightly. Students should first check their school’s financial aid website for instructions on how to proceed. If the website lacks updated information or raises additional questions, the student should again contact the financial aid office. Due to the pandemic, pre-existing financial aid policies and rules continue to change so quickly that a student should reach out even when a website claims that a specific deadline has passed.
Once you feel like you have made progress, though, you should continue to remain proactive. Over both email and the phone, continue to check in with your financial aid administrators to confirm your status and make sure that you’re providing everything they need in a complete and timely manner.All colleges and universities, no matter their specific process, will want to see documentation that supports your family’s aid request.
