Is it possible to negotiate financial aid even in Early Decision?

Yes again I completely understand. But I have found that all it takes is one misstated item on the NPC for it to be wildly wrong, which is why I suggested at least looking at the FAFSA’s EFC to see if they can ID the source of the disconnect. If FAFSA’s EFC shows $70K, there is only the slimmest chance it’s going to get better based on a NPC or CSS…Wishing the poster good luck.
