Financial Aid at Cornell University

<p>If my family has an income of 60,000 or less, what is the financial aid they would give me?
It's unclear on the website.</p>

<p>You can enter your information into the EFC calculator on the collegeboard website which will give you a rough idea

& not sure if this will help, but here is Cornell's cost and financial aid info

<p>I suggest posting this on the Cornell thread; their will be more people there with direct experience with their FA office.</p>

<p>"Building on a long history of providing access to students regardless of economic circumstances, Cornell recently announced a new financial aid initiative to reduce or eliminate need-based loans for eligible undergraduate students. In the 2009-10 academic year, the program will eliminate need-based loans for students from families with total incomes below $75,000, and cap annual loans at $3,000 for students from families with total incomes between $75,000 and $120,000. Cornell’s financial aid program will make it possible for students from diverse economic backgrounds to attend Cornell."</p>

<p>I feel like Cornell is really behind in financial aid initiatives.</p>
