is it typical to get a variation of an "auto-response" email day-of when sending out renegotiation emails to finaid? if so, how long after this email does it typically take to get their final competing offer?

yes, I got the auto response after I sent mine. It's been two weeks and I haven't heard from them since the auto response.

I don't know, but I sent them a Michigan offer so I'll let you know when they respond to me!

haven't sent in a negotiation email, but fwiw i had my Michigan offer much earlier than Duke's and mentioned it in my scholarship interview and they gave me the same amount. since it was an initial offer though there's not really any way of knowing if they would have given me that anyway...

Ugh I had mine too and I was a fool and didn't mention it in my interview and Duke offered me 30k less. hoping negotiation works.

If the difference is big enough, they will increase, but probably not match given CoL difference. for example, a 135K offer from Mich might get you 120K from Duke.

that doesn't make any sense, duke's tuition is higher and although real estate is cheaper the COA is higher overall than michigan

not sure if the COA estimates by the school are the best to go off, but regardless, that's typically how I've seen Duke respond to offers by Mich and NU.

Noooope... I called yesterday because I have a deadline this weekend and was told I should ask for a deposit extension from the other school. Nothing I can do but wait and hope for the best. : )

wow I can't believe it's taking this long.. you don't think there's a chance they won't get back to us before the 20th is there?

I honestly have no idea. I would expect that they'll be able to get back to most of us before the 20th. If they don't get back to some people, I'm guessing they'd be willing to extend the deposit deadline if you asked nicely.

No, there was a 30k difference in my Duke and Mich scholarships and they gave me 15.
