It came down to a state U and Wesleyan University for me. Money was the primary factor, but after I pleaded my case for financial aid with Wesleyan, they rose up to my need and then some. I had received admission from other LACs as well, but the money factor pitted the state U versus Wesleyan, only because it had been my dream school for years. Moral of the story: If you need money to attend your dream school, ask for it! It can’t hurt, and for me, it gave me my chance at school that had only existed as far as my wildest dreams.
