<p>WOOHOO!!!
I DON'T HAVE TO GO TO MY DAD'S OFFICE TO GET THOSE STUPID TAX RETURN FORMS ON NEW YEAR'S DAY!</p>

<p>OMG......ARE U @!$@#$@# serious....Thats the best message Ive read....ALL YEAR</p>

<p>YESSS <3 cornell!!!11!1one!!</p>

<p>and <3 Eddie!!</p>

<p>Oops
someone posted this before me in the fin.aid thread.
sorry i didn't see that and props to that poster.</p>

<p>Does everyone have to file for financial aid? or is it optional?</p>

<p>WOOOOOT. Now i don't have to go to my dad's office and fudge the postmark!</p>

<p>Yay, i can send an updated essay.
Question: to whom do I send this to?</p>

<p>OMG!! And after all that trouble of going to Fedex on New Year's Eve...<em>sigh</em> now I have sooo many regrets on my mind :|</p>

<p>I LOVE YOU</p>

<p>i almost didnt check cornell CC....one of those moments :D</p>

<p>Hey, so if we are sending an updated Academic Interest essay, do we email it, or send a letter via air-mail?</p>

<p>DUDE!, this is great...I just wish Brown would do the same thing lol.</p>

<p>I already sent mine... oh well.</p>

<p>Haha they did this last year, too. I'm wondering if its just a ploy for them to make sure your applications are as good as possible or something like that...</p>

<p>It's a ploy to get more applicants.</p>

<p>You do not HAVE to file FA, you may instead choose to check "not applying for FA."</p>

<p>then you get no $ and we all aren't rich :(</p>

<p>This is great, but is there a reason why they did this? I'm assuming they don't do this every year, so why this year? Was it because of Katrina?</p>

<p>krabble supposedly they did this las yr too "Haha they did this last year, too."</p>

<p>I'm not saying you should check no FA, i'm saying it's an option for the person who asked in post #6

<p>Um... I asked this in the other thread, but I'll ask it again here... Does pushing the freshman application back actually push the financial application back as well?</p>
