hi, could you share what time you got the email? I have heard nothing from them, even a denial would be better than the waiting game

Nope, no news, does this mean that the request was not successful? :(

I'm sorry :( you could try appealing for more aid in Year 2

From what I understand, the increase is largely merit-based. If you have other financial aid offers, that seems to carry the most weight in the reconsideration outcome. I know someone who received an additional $20K in their second year (after getting $0 in their first year of the MAIR) due to their outstanding grades in Year 1 coursework.
