ED Financial Aid

I still haven't received my FA package... I called today and they said that I will probably get it in June... wouldn't that be REALLY late because most of the people I know got theirs? (Regular + kids going to other schools...)

im slightly worried...

Me too. I still haven't gotten mine. Didn't even bother calling. But I just decided to trust Cornell on financial matters. I know they won't betray our trust.

I just sent the Financial Aid Office an email regarding my package and they said they would have it to be ASAP.

Usually whoever is giving you the scholarship would write a check out to Cornell. If you received the check, you're going to need to send it in.

has anyone checked jtf.cornell.edu ?

My FA is on there, but it's the old one. Maybe they'll update it on there before the send out the new packages?
