<p>Actually I was wrong - Cornell is giving me only $3,000 in loans, but the grant is still $10,000 more than either Williams or Swarthmore.</p>
<p>I doubt Swarthmore or Williams calculated something wrongly since they both have similar financial aid and are similar schools…therefore it’s expected that my aid packages are very similar. I don’t really know why Cornell’s package was so much more…they claim to be need-based only as well. Supposedly the Ivies have better financial aid, but I can’t judge based on my case only.</p>
<p>By the way, I still don’t know if I’m going to Swarthmore or Williams. I’ll probably make my choice after Previews next week.</p>
