<p>...will I have to report it to Cornell University's Financial Aid offices?
...will they consequently deduct from their grants gifted to me?</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure that It will count towards the Sudent contribution, which should be about $2320 or something.</p>
<p>your job over the summer should go towards your Summer Student Contribution…</p>
<p>there is a summer savings adjustment form you can fill out (which says you did not meet the summer contribution b/c you had expenses (only certain things qualify as "expenses) </p>
<p>and if you qualify the difference will be made up in the form of a loan…</p>
<p>if you dont work over the summer (and qualify) you can turn the student contribution into loan…</p>
<p>at a bare minimum, Cornell will know about your wages when you file for your FinAid next year because you will have to submit a 2009 tax return. Finaid for this coming school year is based on 2008 wages.</p>
