My daughter was accepted to a small, private college in Florida for the fall of 2016. She received a very poor scholarship offer of only $1,500 per year which makes this school too expensive for us. She applied to another private college and received $12,000 scholarship per year, but it isn't her first choice. Here are my questions:
1. Can I call to try and negotiate a better price for her?
2. She applied under the "early decision" plan which makes her ineligible to apply to any other school from this point on. We did the early decision application because it was supposed to give the best scholarship and the fastest decision. I think it's a slap in the face based on the dollar amount they are "giving to her."
3. What happens if she ignores the letter that has clearly told us she has to withdraw her applications from other colleges and has to commit to this one? Can they sue us for breach of contract or something?
Any help is very much appreciated. This is very frustrating.
