<p>Has anyone received their financial aid packets yet?</p>
<p>Yes, today.</p>
<p>Really? I only received my acceptance letter.</p>
<p>I only got a letter saying the package was coming soon.</p>
<p>to those who received their package:</p>
<p>how true to their word were they about the newly enhanced package?</p>
<p>Ha, well despite being only middle class and having another sibling in an expensive university, I was deemed not to have any need for financial aid....ouch.</p>
<p>They were true to their word for me...very much so</p>
<p>I wish my FA packet would arrive already :(.</p>
<p>you guys are lucky. I wish my official acceptance letter would come already. )):</p>
<p>bumpity bump bump</p>
<p>President Skorton sent an email today about the financial crisis again
Anybody willing to paraphrase it for me? Its waaay too long :D</p>
<p>does the FA package come the day after the admission letter?</p>
<p>I recceived the admission letter and a letter from finaid on the same day. The finaid letter just said that they will send the FA package soon, and it's been 2 days so I guess not.</p>
<p>I didn't get my Financial Aid yet. They did say that they had the items and will mail it soon. Thing is, if these things churn out in time order when they received the complete application, my application might not come to me until the end of the week. It must have been the CSS thing. They said they didn't receive it, and I had to tell them about it. Then they didn't need anything anymore just a few days before the ED date. So my Fin Aid might not be here for a few more days =(</p>
<p>^ Same thing is happening to me, except they still say they haven't received my CSS profile yet. I'm kind of freaking out...am I royally screwed over for financial aid??</p>
<p>I was accepted to the ILR School two weeks ago. I just called the financial aid office, since I still have not received my package yet. I was told that they are still reviewing most transfer acceptees for financial need, including myself. She said to call next Wednesday for an update, meaning that they probably will not send out packages until another ten days! I cannot wait that long. I really want to send my acceptance coupon and tuition deposit now, just so that I am officially a Cornellian. :) I bet the rest of you feel the same way haha.</p>
<p>ugh, my fin. aid hurts.</p>
<p>anybody have any ideas how to make a quick $160,000? </p>
<p>:p </p>
<p>:'(</p>
<p>How badly could it hurt?
You're not middle class are you?</p>
<p>I have some ideas...but most are not legal ;-)</p>
<p>I'm paying off my Cornell loans now...trying to do double payments on 2 of them...it hurts...but it's worth it :-)</p>
<p>Cornell's soooo gonna screw me on finaid.</p>
