Using Aid packages against other schools for MBA

So if one school goes ahead and gives you a hefty scholarship and it is in the same tier as another school, is it fine to go ahead and try to push that on the other school to give you a bit more money? ie 'i really want to go to your school but this school gave me xyz money, is it possible to match' ? i know a Ross vs Darden or Haas vs Stern (opposite ends of the country haha) may be possible but what if you get a full ride at something like Anderson vs nothing at Tuck? Can you wiggle that somewhat or no? Obviously cant ask for a full scholly at Tuck but maybe 5-10k, 15k stretching it?

Went through that very same situation recently without success . It doesn’t hurts to try, though, and your negotiating skills might be better than mine...
