Cornell Annual Fund for Engineering

“Financial aid has allowed me to focus on the engineering classes I am taking without having to worry about not being able to pay my tuition. 

I am a first-generation student along with my brother studying at Cornell a year above me—being able to afford our education has been a worry since we were kids.”

—Melisa Lezcano, ENG ’24
