Harder School to get into

I just finished my freshman year at WashU. Almost everyone I know also got into Northwestern. Also, a large percentage of people are getting financial aid. In fact, I know 2 people that chose WashU over NU because they got a much better financial aid package from Wash U. I didn’t qualify for aid but didn’t know that when I applied so checked that I did on my ap. Their financial aid office did all they could to try to qualify me for it but my parents had too many tangible assets, regardless of a drop in income. Don’t believe everything you see on these boards regarding the need aware posts.
