Need help with the Cornell FIN AID form

Yeppers…you got it.

Tax returns for fiscal year 2004 were due on 4/15/2005; for fiscal year 2005 they will be due on 4/15/2006. Of course with FAFSAs and CSS Profiles+BUFS due as early as February 1 for some schools, I’m sure we’ll all be trying to crank those FY2005 tax returns out much earlier than 4/15/2006.

theonekid…did you get your forms together and in the mail today? I’m very impressed with how you handled all of this. Also, haven’t checked the Cornell board this evening…but earlier, there were quite a few kids posting who missed the deadline altogether. Hopefully Cornell will be a little flexible.

Helpful Hint: I’ve mentioned this before. Try to get those FAFSAs and CSS Profiles in asap if you are after gov’t subsidized grants and zero interest loans. The money is awarded ‘first come first served’ and there is definitely not enough for everyone applying for assistance. Be the early bird if you can.
