IMO, it’s definitely worth a shot to ask for additional money. The only downside is that they might say no. My son sent a letter to his first choice school and included copies of scholarship offers from two other slightly lower rated schools. They only bumped their offer up a little, but $1500 extra/year was definitely worth the couple of hours he and I spent on the letter.

Good Luck!
