Oh this brings back memories. When my son was applying to college a few years ago, the people in Cornell’s financial aid department seemed perpetually confused and/or angry. Self-employment income especially seemed to trigger them. Just fill out the forms they ask for and be prepared for them to send you the same request for the same information after you have submitted it. Patience (and a sense of humor) are essential.

I’ve heard that once you are admitted the financial aid process goes a lot smoother so don’t let it turn you off the school.
