Has anyone received any scholarships (especially at Stern) as a GSAP scholar? If another school provided scholarships, is it worth negotiating?

Most schools if they entertain it will negotiate one time. But they need to be comparable schools or more money at the “better” school. A good friend had a lot of money at fuqua and was able to negotiate with Darden but tuck and Kellogg wouldn’t budge

Is negotiating / matching merit scholarships pretty normal?

I am currently working on my MBA in a professional evening and weekend program at a highly accredited university. I am thinking about transferring to a much smaller private online program, specifically because they offer a concentration in organizational health, which directly builds on my doctoral research. Does great depth and specialization outweigh the value of a highly respected generalist degree?
