Is the reconsideration form on the website or do you email them?
Ditto on emailing them.
Just so you're prepared, they will ask for 1-2 competing offers from a pre-approved list of schools (basically T-20 from what I saw). They want documentation, so just copy/paste the email into Word and make a PDF document for that.
From talking with students at the school, my understanding is that even a low offer from a higher-ranked school carries much more weight than a significant offer from a lower-ranked school.

I got my form within a few hours. And they say they review the forms on a weekly basis, so presumably you could submit today and possibly hear by Friday.

Is there any way to know if Round 2 is the "last" round, or is there the possibility that the waiting game may continue for some?

Scholly in round 2. Beats other comparable school's offers so far, but nothing outrageous. It does give me something to think about!

Got mine as well! Any thoughts on requesting an increase based on offers from WUSTL and USC? Congrats to all thus far!

I got my scholarship email and I was so pleased with what they offered. This definitely could be a game-changer!

Best offer by a long shot! I guess we should be thanking Pritzker

Those negotiating their scholarship - did you just email them back asking them to reconsider and they send you a form?

Yep. It's an online form, so they just send you the link.

"We will consider requests on a weekly basis, staying mindful of your other scholarship acceptance deadline(s). Please do not inquire about the status of your request unless it is within 48 hours of such a deadline and you still have not heard back from us."
Just sent mine Monday, but have April 1 deadlines.... do you think it's worth emailing today?

It can't hurt. I mean, I'm sure they're aware of other deadlines, and you could explain under the circumstances why you're emailing.
