I would just double check that. I just looked at booking one through them (tho O'Hare not midway) and there was an underage fee so I would make sure everything was entered properly and it just isn't there, or if it is there and you just dont see it as a separate fee. Also I noticed that a lot of booking sites (expedia...) dont show company specific fees since it has no spot to enter age so it may not be added until you pick up the car
When I dropped off the car and looked at my receipt, there were only two main charges: the charge for the compact car (which, btw, they gave me a full sized car and didn't charge extra), and the charge for the insurance (it was $15 and I shouldn't have got it, but I was paranoid as it had snowed that night). The rest was miscellaneous taxes, each of them less than $5. I paid $40 total for my rental car. I should have paid $65-$70.
So, if people want to see if they have the same luck as me, I hope it works for yall!
ah gotcha, thought you had rented it for this upcoming asw lol but dang thats not bad. I need it for Thursday-Sunday so its a decent bit more pricey than that lol, cheapest so far I've found is like $212

Sounds about right. Most places are supposed to charge $25/day for underage rental, so figure that $75 of that plus tax is just that. Enjoy the visit! It's an awesome campus.

What's the word on negotiating? I feel like I read that there's a form, but I can't seem to find it.

hmm Ohio and Indiana beat out New York and Michigan in placement #'s... interesting
an Okay increase in 500+ firms especially since # of jobs was down (assuming smaller class size but too lazy to make sure)

Appealed scholly with offers over 100k. Got a 6k bump, but still under 85K, not thrilled but not completely disappointed. They also gave me another week to decide.

I posted earlier that I got the 6K bump as well with a similar situation from T50 schools - However, I wanted to update y'all that I re-appealed and was denied a second bump.

yeah ND seems to take the COA look on negotiations pretty seriously which makes it a bit rougher imo.
what ya thinking?

I'm most likely a no if my offer gets matched from a higher school. The extra hit I'm going to take in cost of attednance is made up on the other schools location, slightly higher ranking (and consistency), and placement #'s
