<p>"You and your parents/guardians are cordially invited to a workshop to learn about the Cornell University financial aid process. This workshop is for multicultural students who have already applied to Cornell University for undergraduate admission for fall 2011.</p>

<p>Workshop participants will receive an overview of the Cornell financial aid process, step-by-step instructions on how to complete the required forms, and advice from Cornell financial aid counselors. A representative from Cornell University’s New York State Opportunity Programs office will also be on-hand to provide an overview of the EOP and HEOP programs."</p>

<p>Anyone else get this? I’m in New York City and applied to ILR, if that makes a difference.
Both of the workshops that are mentioned in the email are also in NYC.</p>

<p>It probably is just another info session, except more specific. I felt like posting it though, because I’ve read on this forum that there were a few people interested in the EOP and HEOP programs.</p>

<p>Hey, I’m a junior in the class of 2012 and am looking forward to applying ED to ILR next fall
I read somewhere that doing EOP is like an automatic deferral… but also that it increases your chances?
Did you receive this notice after applying EOP?
I also live in NYC, I’m just wondering if there are any added perks or benefits for qualifying for EOP</p>

<p>My D is a 2nd semester Freshman now. I didn’t attend the workshop, but have found the financial aid department to be extremely helpful - they really go out of their way to be sure they do everything they can for you.</p>

<p>Just wanted to take a minute to give them a shout out!</p>

<p>Best of luck to all Cornell students!</p>
