I think a definition of preferential aid might be in order.
If for example a school costs $25,000 and you are determined to show
$19,000 in need a typical package might consist of:
$12,000 in grant,
$5,000 in loan
and $2,000 in work study
... with a family contribution of $6,000
a preferential aid package would be
$19,000 in grant (still based on need)
... with a family contribution of $6,000 - which may be taken in the
form of a loan
It is at the schools discretion how this is divided up
in fact most schools give various packages to all students depending
on how much they want them
My understanding (and experience) is that this is indeed how the ivies
operate

Sorry to take fuel away from your pity-party, but none of the Ivies offer
scholarships nor preferential aid for athletics (nor academics, for that
matter).
All financial aid is based solely on need.
