Does Cornell give a full ride to household incomes <$60,000?

Transfer Students

<p>I've read somewhere on this site that all Ivies give a full ride (tuition only?) to students who come from a household with income less than $60,000...is this true? </p>

<p>And does that cover both tuition and housing or just tuition? </p>

<p>And is this only for transfers/freshman/or both?</p>

<p>this is correct</p>

<p>i’ve heard this policy isn’t true for transfer students? actually i’ve read it on the columbia transfer financial aid website if i remember correctly.</p>

<p>columbia has more restrinctions for transfers. however, cornell gives full ride. you gotta pay around 3000 from summer every year , and you have to work there (work-study) the rest is grant. Also, keep in mind that if you dont have insurance, you will be required to pay for one, and if you don’t have a scholarship to cover for your self help (work-study+ loans), you will have to pay it by working or more loan.</p>

<p>Is this in terms of Total Income or Net Income?</p>
