If my family has an income of 60,000 or less, what is the financial aid they would give me?
It's unclear on the website.

You can enter your information into the EFC calculator on the collegeboard website which will give you a rough idea

& not sure if this will help, but here is Cornell's cost and financial aid info

I suggest posting this on the Cornell thread; their will be more people there with direct experience with their FA office.

"Building on a long history of providing access to students regardless of economic circumstances, Cornell recently announced a new financial aid initiative to reduce or eliminate need-based loans for eligible undergraduate students. In the 2009-10 academic year, the program will eliminate need-based loans for students from families with total incomes below $75,000, and cap annual loans at $3,000 for students from families with total incomes between $75,000 and $120,000. Cornell’s financial aid program will make it possible for students from diverse economic backgrounds to attend Cornell."

Welcome

I feel like Cornell is really behind in financial aid initiatives.
