Hello,
I have been extremely fortunate - Thanks to the unconditional kindness and wisdom on these forums from adcoms like Goro and others - to complete my re-invention and hold multiple acceptances in this cycle. I have been admitted to my top-choice/dream program (a public, OOS school) as well as to an IS public school. I am humbled to even have a shot at either. The difference in COA over 4 years is over $120k, but I would love to attend my dream program. If it matters, they are both T40 MD programs (not that I really care about that but just to contextualize my inquiry).
Would it be wise to email the dean or financial aid office (not sure who it would best) stating that I will commit to their institution if they could lower the cost difference or match tuition? Would it be best to wait until April? I understand the award packaged won't be crafted until later next year, but I am curious how to best approach this respectfully and sincerely. By no means do I want to sound entitled but I figure it is an important factor.
Thank you all so much once again for all your wisdom and help in this process.
