We are in the same position. School #1 offered about 1/2 less of a merit award. Tried talking to them about it, and they did not seem to willing to budge. Told us to file the appeal form, but when you read it - they specifically say that they would not consider changing the initial offer simply because another school offers more. But, still worth a phone call. Good luck!
