so if any1 else has experienced the same thing, let me know

i have received financial aid packages from both dartmouth and northwestern. from my past experiences, i have heard that northwestern is much more stingy with money while, as an ivy league school that meets 100% of demonstrated need, dartmouth would give more money.

however, after i received packages from both schools, i am currently getting 30% more money from northwestern than dartmouth, which is a pretty significant amount…

is there any way to have dartmouth match the money i get at northwestern or any other school? i mean this disparity doesnt really make any sense to me…
