Appeal for scholarship?

So I applied to Pitt on December 4, got accepted a week or so later, and I got notification of a merit scholarship of $15,000 on the 23rd. I realize that I applied kind of late, but since Pitt is my safety school and I’m considering attending, I wanted a bigger merit scholarship. I’m in the top 1% (salutatorian, maybe valedictorian) and I have a 2270 SAT (1530 CR+M) and a 34 ACT. Can I appeal for a higher merit scholarship, and is it likely that I’d receive one?
