I am very fortunate to have received a few offers to M7 and T15 business schools for this cycle. My dream school is Booth - and they accepted me with no scholarship unfortunately. However, I was fortunate to get a big chunk of change from Wharton and a big chunk from Stern, as well as several other admits.

Should I try to negotiate Booth?

Congrats on your admits! It seems it is a pretty standard topic these days to negotiate scholarships with schools, so I think you should to just make sure you got the best offer from all of your schools. It does not seem to hurt anyway, though success rates are not high.

Congrats on your Wharton scholarship by the way! That will help quite a bit in your conversation with Booth. See this Master Thread for Scholarship discussions I posted just yesterday: https://gmatclub.com/forum/negotiating- ... 12949.html

P.S. Be prepared to share the admit/scholarship letter from Wharton with Booth. They will likely ask for it.

Thanks!
BB.

Thanks, BB! Great advice here and I will be prepared to do that.

Any other advice or tips would be appreciated from others! Also hoping to do a full debrief soon.
