<p>Hello all! I’ve been admitted to NYU and am waiting to hear back from BU, but when visiting an open house at NYU, I was told by one of the students there that BU will double any scholarship NYU gives you. I was wondering if anyone can confirm this or report a similar occurrence, where BU has upped their offer to drain the NYU applicant pool.</p>
<p>Never heard this. Sounds like an urban myth. Generally speaking you will not do well with trying to play one school against another. They will each give you a scholarship or FA package and you then choose what is best for you.</p>
