How much do gap year wages affect financial aid?
Curious what people have experienced so far. I've only gotten my aid package from Georgetown (notoriously gives no aid) and am waiting on aid from Cornell, which is known to give good aid bc of the debt free initiative. My parents are lower to middle income but I chose a more lucrative gap year job to save money for school since my parents cannot afford to pay, but do they account for the fact that you stop working once you enter school? Sorry if this is a dumb q lol
