Not long. Cottage cheese is low in fat, (like yoghurt), and high in water, so it's keeping qualities are similar as to yoghurt. A solid cheese (like cheddar) is primarily made of fat and very little water, so it is really well preserved and will keep for a week or two beyond it's use by date. Cottage cheese will not.

If it hasn't been opened, it may be fine for a few days after the expiry date. If you've opened it already, it's less likely. Smell it, and see how much it has separated.
