<p>is financial aid applicable for more than 4 years? for instance, if i wanted to get a minor or 2 with my major and this ended up being 4.5 or 5 years would the fifth year be assisted financially?</p>
<p>well, for me, it’s only for 4 years…</p>
<p>I believe federal aid is available for up to 7 years, provided you haven’t already borrowed the maximum amount and are making satisfactory academic progress. <a href=“http://finaid.cornell.edu/eligibility/satisfactoryprogress.cfm[/url]”>http://finaid.cornell.edu/eligibility/satisfactoryprogress.cfm</a></p>
<p>Institutional aid (ex. Cornell grants) availability depends on the school’s policies.</p>
<p>If you’re adding a minor or 2, it’s unlikely you would have to stay longer than 4 years.</p>
