<p>Hey, I've just received a likely letter in the mail today^^ so awesome. Cornell also mentioned something about the Tanner Dean's Scholar. I am an international asking for huge financial aid. Is Cornell need-blind this year? Anybody on the same boat? I am so happy now. Have never expected to receive a likely so late.</p>
<p>Cornell is need-blind admissions for international students, but they award finaid on a merit basis.</p>
<p>ax, on a merit basis ** so what is the prospect of receiving aid if an international gets accepted? T.T Anyway, Hi VNese fellow</p>
<p>Congrats! When did they send out your letter?</p>
<p>Hey thx DWADDET, it was sent on March 15th</p>
<p>does everyone receive this letter? T.T</p>
<p>No, not everyone receives this, and the Tanner Dean’s scholar is one of the scholarship programs available in Arts and Sciences</p>

<p>The amount of money that comes with it is not large, but it helps.</p>
<p>I did. 10 char</p>
<p>@chendrix: sure it does, plus having a dean as your supervisor! Just feel lucky and happy to receive the letter ^^</p>
<p>I got it. I’m not sure about financial aid for international students though…</p>
