Too late to negotiate? (no rhyme intended)

Paying for College
1

<p>Due to circumstances out of my control, I was not able to receive my financial aid packages until today. Seeing as the financial aid offices to these schools are closed for the day, is tomorrow too late to negotiate for a better package? I can’t go to these schools for the current price (would be 20,000/year for one and 30,000/year for another) so this would be a make or break deal for my “dream” schools.</p>

<p>Obviously, there is no harm in trying, but honestly, do you think it is too late?</p>

<p>Sure, no harm trying but likely too late.
What are the schools?</p>

<p>may 1st is tomorrow though (i don’t know if you have to decide by then), i would call the colleges tomorrow during school time and explain your situation.</p>

<p>My son just negotiated today. For him it was a make or break deal, and he did get some consideration.</p>
