kasserole Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 I've been accepted to my top choice, School A, with a 2k scholarship. School B and C gave me almost 20k. How do I negotiate with school A to give me more money using B and C as bargaining chips? Is this a thing that people do for MA programs? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catcatcatdog Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Congrats on your options!! I don't know if people negotiate for MA programs, but I did for my PhD -- I just wrote to the director of graduate studies at School A and explained that School B had offered me about 10k more (I did have to send a PDF copy of my offer from School B as proof). A couldn't fully match B, but they did up my offer by 8k, and seemed to think this was a perfectly legitimate move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
