<p>So I’m an incoming Cornell freshman and am currently confused as to where my finalized and complete fin aid package can be found online. Im asking because the package I found at the Bursar website is different from the one in my Student Center, where the Bursar one is missing my $2000 work study, but everything else is the same. So do I get work study or not?</p>
<p>The Student Center one is more accurate & updated more, but I’d call Financial Aid to double check!</p>
<p>Your bursar account won’t reflect your work study. That is money that you will have to earn throughout the year and will be paid directly to you, if you take the initiative to find yourself a work study job. (Think of it as going toward your textbooks and incidentals, that you will pay directly, rather than paying through the bursar.)</p>
<p>Oh, so I am qualified for work study then? Thank god cuz I would very much need it.</p>
<p>Obviously I can’t answer that question for you for sure, but for what it’s worth, I’ve heard repeatedly that any student who wants a job on campus should have no trouble getting one, work study or not. So you should be fine. But if you want to double-check, call the financial aid office and ask.</p>
