Question re: LMU and Financial Aid

If you look at their financial aid websites, LMU only uses the FAFSA to determine your demonstrated need .

If you look at their CDS, LMU on average only meets 68% of your financial need

LMU States in their appeal process of Examples of Circumstances that may not be considered:

* Request to match the financial aid award from another school

In short , they are not going to entertain an appeal based on what another school gave you.
