Is the Cornell Financial Aid Good?

<p>I heard that Cornell doesn't offer as much aid as the other Ivies, especially with regards to international students. I live in Canada and I'm wondering if they will give me aid (30k+ per year) because I will definitely need it.</p>

<p>Does anyone know?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Starting the past school year, Cornell made the decision to match the aid offered at the other Ivy League schools + MIT + Stanford, if I remember correctly. I don’t know how it applies to non-US residents, though. It might be best to just check out the university’s financial aid website: [Financial</a> Aid](<a href=“http://www.finaid.cornell.edu/]Financial”>http://www.finaid.cornell.edu/)</p>

<p>Canada is good for aid. (they will give full tuition if your financial information shows the need)</p>

<p>How much do your guardians make?

<p>No. But then again, it really isn’t anywhere else either these days.</p>

<p>I don’t know too much about internationally, but I’m domestic and I received fairly great aid. Going to Cornell is much cheaper (I’m out of state) than attending any of the public universities at my home state.</p>

<p>I’m admittedly not well of money-wise, but one of my main selling points for Cornell besides the beautiful campus and friendly people was the fact that they gave me <em>very</em> generous financial aid. part of that was a mcmullen dean’s scholarship, but I think if it weren’t there then my grant would just be higher.</p>
