<p>I applied last Monday to the Cornell Summer Program, got in on Friday! So excited!</p>
<p>Ok now to the real problem, how am I going to pay for this?</p>
<p>I was hoping on financial aid, but then I missed the deadline. I just figured out this program on Monday. My family can not pay $10,000. How did you guys pay for it? Other than financial aid from the Cornell Summer Program (you lucky and smart kids who applied early!) and the people whose parent's paid for all of it, how did you do it? I know the website says to talk to my guidance counselor about it, but what could she do?</p>
