<p>Provided the Georgetown offer is a need-based offer based on the fact that they consider you a permanent citizen, I would call the office.</p>
<p>okay, if they haven’t replied by the time i get back from school tomorrow ill call. thanks! ill let you know if it works. fingers crossedd…</p>
<p>it is very difficult to change the minds of the administrators once they make a decision about the residency as it is a policy decision based on the availability of legal documents.</p>
<p>do you have green card to show/prove your residency?</p>
<p>to be on the safe side, make sure you accept at least one offer from the remaining schools to ensure you have something for fall</p>
<p>no i don’t thats the problem. 
this is the link for the thread i started. all the details are there. </p>

<p>and i accepted Georgetowns offer.</p>
<p>@ cayuga, what do you mean by Cornell’s historical ties with Canada?<br>
I’m Canadian and plan to apply in the fall and need financial aid for sure… is the chance very slim?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Just that. Cornell has a lot of historical ties with Canada. Moreso than most other American schools. For fun, google Ned Harkness, Goldwin Smith, Ken Dryden, Melody Davidson, or Stephen Jarislowsky.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Not slim. Just less than it would have been a couple years ago. Cornell’s financial aid for internationals is still quite good in the grand scheme of things.</p>
<p>^^
It’s actually slim to none. But you do get a $65 t-shirt. :-)</p>
