wish me luck!!!! gonna apply for ED for the 2023-24 cycle 🤞🏻
My toxic trait is thinking i could get into an Ivy League college with not so great GPA or test scores and not being in sports or extracurriculars 🤦🏻♀️😭
You can. How much money do your parents have? Cornell does SCE, and basically it can be used as a second chance for students who don't qualify as is for acceptance. You will go to Cornell as a student, and gain college credits in all courses you take. You will also get a Cornell transcript which can be worth its weight in gold for UCLA and other top schools which aren't IVY. The reason I ask about money. Cornell 3 credit courses cost $4900 out of pocket, and that's $19,600 for a 12 credit course. You will get Zero scholarship or financial aid. You can definitely 100% buy your acceptance this way, because think about how many students actually do this to get in. 1% or less, so it works with less competition being viewed. Cornell honestly doesn't care about kid stuff, like how this guy said he opened a business using his moms money. Cornell seen that and didn't think Tier 1, they thought O.O money. Cornell mainly looks at an application and does one of two things, can they afford Cornell, or are they worth a scholarship. People buy their ways into IVYS all the time with large parent donations, and it's just a classist school like all IVYS. Kids do earn their way in, but kids also buy their way in. Becoming president of a club or an *executive* is honestly something anyone can do, create a club and you're automatically an executive, invite 3-4 of your friends and then join their clubs and bingo you all have clubs LOL.
My Toxic trait is making 200k a year without college, and still not being able to afford this schools yearly tuition, so I come here to see what will be running the country and laugh. Unless you play football or some other activity for a Christian private school, you likely wont get a scholarship to attend. I've known zero to go into an IVY, and my wife is from California. Her high school had 5 and they were LOADED besides one. The one who stood out was mixed (black/white), rape baby whose mother didn't want anything to do with her, and white grandma had to raise her with racist relatives on the mothers side who hated her existence, which drove her mother into a nut house. So that effectively with a 3.8 GPA made her a shoe-in on the essay for earning admission the right way with a full ride scholarship. I'd rather not be a rape baby. Ivy now is made out to be something they aren't. Look up Harvard/Yale/Cornell's acceptance rates for the years 1980-1990. You'll be surprised to see most of them were over 30%. Vanderbilt isn't Ivy, but has something like a 10% acceptance rate. Just in 2003 Vanderbilt had a 40% acceptance rate for Art and science, and a whopping 55% acceptance rate for Engineering. You can get a superior education at any school you get, and if you want IVY for your kids then chase the money and put them in private schools their entire upbringing. IVY school doesn't equal better job than anyone else. This guy talking chose Hotel, why the hell would anyone want to work at hotels with a degree? I know Hotel owners who didn't get a college degree lol, 2008 was a great year to borrow money. Anyone that gets an MD license at the bottom tier locations will come out higher than this Cornell student and that's facts. You can do anything you want without an IVY degree, Stop chasing them :D
The average length of time to finish an undergraduate bachelors at Harvard is 8 years. Let that sink in. You can go to Random University, and get into the job field 4 years earlier than most Harvard students and you'll be their boss by then. This Cornell student is going to have a boss who doesn't hold any IVY degree, and that's going to SUCK to realize. He could have went to a regular Uni and had his parents throw the 30k extra into a bank account. Then started a business once graduated. Some people are Blind.
@@floored3078 damn! thats a very interesting perspective
This was so helpful and amazing. I'm a rising junior and this really helped me figure out how to manage junior year correctly so i don't waste it :))
So glad you found the video helpful! Best of luck in your junior year!
what school did you end up going to?
Any news??!
Thank you very much for all your advice. We incorporated your suggestions in my daughter application last fall and it worked! She is now a freshman at Cornell!
That's so great to hear, glad we could help!
this school has been my dream since when I went for a science Olympiad competition in 2019, thanks for the help💖✌
This is very helpful, thank you for the thorough explanation!
I’m a kid and I’m planning to go to Cornell to be a veterinarian one day.
Thanks for the video! Will be helpful for the future!
This is so amazing!!! Thank you for all the advices:))))

Gamma Digamma congrats man, I got rejected
You get in?
Cornell is such a great school. Ithaca is one of the most beautiful places to go to college.
My brother applied to Cornell COLLEGE so when he got in he was so excited but then he realized that he messed up
litiya weng how did he mess up???
SmileyGoodFace he applied to the college instead of the university. Cornell University is Ivy League but Cornell college is just a college
Oh no 😭😭😭
oh no really?? No offense at all but how did he not know the entire time loll how did he even write his essay and stuff
sugaudacity yeah he applied to there bc the logo was a shield like other Ivy League schools
love the straight face, great vid 😄
So helpful!
We're so glad you find it a useful resource!
I wanted to know about post graduate Veterinary courses!
Can you make a video for this?
I've wanted to go to Cornell for as long as I could remember. I'm currently going into my junior year of highschool with a 92 average. I would love to go for a biomedical major because I love the sciences. I take a rigorous 4 year program offered by our school through PLTW (project lead the way) all about the biomedical sciences. Along with this I am taking math and Spanish until I graduate and have 3 AP classes lined up for Junior year. I also am a part of our towns Junior EMS program and I am on course to becoming a certified EMT within the following year. Being a 3 sport varsity athlete along with being in our schools link crew and student council, would these compensate for my lower average? I plan on getting references from Cornell alumni (My boss and the Mayor of our town). If not, is there any advice you could give me on getting admitted?
Apply for Jack Kent Cooke Scholarship. I was a semifinalist and I began receiving emails from Ivy Leagues congratulating me. They also asked me to consider apply for their universities. I was surprised how JKC scholarship boost my Cornell application. A week ago, I got my acceptance letter for Civil Engineering 👍🏼
You should apply ED
@@lujedeja578 can I ask you a few questions regarding essay? do you consult with anyone other than your family about it?
Honestly, I extracurriculars don't necessarily "compensate" for lower gpas.... You sound like a busy person, which is fine, but Ivy's and larger named schools want to see quality over quantity. Zone in on maybe 3-4 extracurriculars you are truly passionate about and demonstrate that you have a field of interest. Colleges want strong applicants in their respective fields of interests, not thousands of students who are just good at extreme multi tasking with a million things that they do, which in all honestly, are most likely things they won't be contributing the the college (for example, I doubt you would be playing 3 Division sports in college on top of grueling classes, jobs, etc). Not to mention, but colleges want the whole well rounded class, so you have to consider that as well.
Although we are amidst of a pandemic, you can possibly have your personal essay (or even a good test score if you have it) to help your applications stand out more.
You will surely get in
I heard that the acceptance rate of Cornell University is 45% or so for IB Students. Is that true? If so, why?
How much GRE and TOEFL scores are required for Post Graduation for Indian International Students ?🤔
I’m currently 12 and Cornell is my dream school. I have a 98% average and want to start preparing
Man your middle school grades couldn’t mean less. High schools isn’t bad though do your work don’t party to much and work hard and you can do it. But please don’t have the assumption that because your smart now means you will do good in high school
George S Patton thank you for the advice =)

I am currently an 8th grader living in New York City. I want to become a meteorologist so I am researching colleges with atmospheric science programs in the city but there aren’t any undergraduate colleges I can find. I will really try to get accepted into Cornell university but seems like acceptance rates aren’t that high. At least I still have 4 years to decide which college I will go to.
Lol I want to become a meteorologist too. I’m in 10th grade and I am looking into Cornell too
Hey, can anyone tell me when can we apply to it i mean the date, pls
Can plz anyone tell me that is Cornell University good for studying English n History?
What about the College of Veterinary Medicine, or is that not mentioned because it's not for undergraduates?
I was wondering the same thing.
Hii..!!
I got an offer from Cornell's MEM program.
I'm seeking insights into the value of attending an Ivy League university. However, I'm unsure if it's wise to take on significant loans for this education or if I should try other universities that have the lowest fees. Given your background as a Cornell graduate, I'd appreciate your perspective on this dilemma. 0:06
How about for PhD application by a foreign student? How can we be accepted at Cornell? Thanks in advance
Hello there!
I am a freshman student of Borough of Manhattan Community college and i wish to transfer to Cornell university’s Communication studies program or English program.
Is it possible to do so and does Cornell offer good financial aid as I am not able to pay more than $5k a year.
Thank you!
Hi Shujayet, we recommend looking at Cornell's Department of Communication transfer options and going from there: communication.cals.cornell.edu/undergraduate-program/transfer-options/.
In terms of financial aid, if you're a New York state resident, tuition is about $15,000 less than out-of-state residents. You can learn more about their financial aid program here: admissions.cals.cornell.edu/tuition/
Hope this helps!
Hi
My dream is to join Cornell University. I visited the website several times but I couldn’t find the portal for online application to the university. Can you please help me out?
Any assistance will be highly appreciated.
Hi Shukria,
Here is a link to the application page on Cornell's website: admissions.cornell.edu/apply/first-year-applicants
Hope this helps!
I have a GPA of 3.8 out of 5
Do I stand a chance to get in cornell
Where my ED folks at for fall 2021 semester 👀
here desperately trying to remember how good my supplemental was..
Hi me too!
good luck!
What was your grades and Standardized scores? Plz tell me🙏
I'll apply for fall 2022
Why is there a Harvard banner next to the Cornell one!?!
We have pennants from different colleges and universities hanging throughout our office!
How would my odds be if I had a 4.2 weighted gpa, applied early action, was a legacy, and participated in sports year round?
My sister is the same as you. As long as you do some clubs, extracurriculars and you can point out recent genuine achievements, your resume looks amazing. She got in, so I hope u do too. 👍
Honestly it also depends on ur essays .. it paints a picture for the admin about you and why they should accept you :))
@dsteill2946 Did she apply with any standarlized tests?
Hello, may I want to know that What is the requirement score of GRE and IELTS for Cornell University.
I don't know about GRE, but is a 7.0 minimum for IELTS. It is stated on their website.
@@khanhlinhbui1566 thanks.
Is there any minimum GPA for Master of Engineering Program?
Hi Fauzan, we focus only on undergraduate admissions, however this page on Cornell's website may help: www.engineering.cornell.edu/admissions/graduate-admissions/admissions-ms-students
Hi! My name is Alexa, in the video you said that early decision is binding, but what if I also need a scholarship or financial aid and they don't give the discount I need, what would I do in this case? I cannot afford Cornell without the things mentioned above, but I'm really sure that Cornell is my dream university, so what would I do??
Hi Alexa, this is a very common situation and many students have the same question! We explai everything in this blog post: blog.collegevine.com/should-i-apply-early-decision-if-i-need-financial-aid/ Hope this helps!
@@CollegeVine Thank you!
I have an SAT of 1410 composite, 1430 super score. Should I give it a shot or is it too far fetched ?
Hi there, it's really a personal choice, but if you're looking to make a more educated decision, look at the percentage of students in your score percentile that Cornell admits. You should be able to find this information on their website.
could i still apply to Cornell having not taken the ACT considering the global epidemic and such?
Yes! Cornell went test-optional this year.
I’m 12 and really want to go to Cornell University it’s my dream school I know college is a long time but I really really hope I get excepted into Cornell University
Antaniya White *accepted, spelling correctly is the first step of getting into Cornell...
One week ago, I received my acceptance letter from Cornell for Civil Engineering. Remember that they're not looking students only with high grades. You have to volunteer, participate in clubs, apply for Jack Kent Cooke Scholarship, and keep a good relationship with at least 2 teachers. If you do that, you're almost accepted into Cornell. Good luck 👍🏼
SmileyGoodFace Im 12 also. I really would like to go to this Ivy League university. I don’t know why I’m telling you this.
@@FNgod44 lmfaooo
i did not know which university i should go to
I’ve got a question; since Cornell is a university. College is different correct? If I’d like to study animal science are there any colleges you suggest going to?
Hi Bhavya, the difference between colleges and universities is that universities tend to be larger and usually offer graduate programs, in addition to undergraduate programs. But both colleges and universities have undergraduate programs. If you're interested in animal science, here's a list of schools to consider: blog.collegevine.com/the-list-of-all-u-s-colleges-with-an-animal-science-major/
CollegeVine thank you so much! This helped me a lot.

@@ADI-gj4rw Okay dear
Do you know what it’s like to be under 15 and be thinking about how to get into dream colleges, and thinking I won’t get in when the future comes and start thinking what I’ll talk about in my essay? Some would say live your life now that you are still young but the thing is I can’t, my heart really wants to be an excellent vet and to be honest it makes me happy to see things I may or may not reach when I grow up. Cornell is like my dream college to get into and since I had 10 years I’ve been looking at colleges to go because I couldn’t see the poor animals in the street dying, it would just break my heart. Everyday I push myself harder and harder to just reach my dreams. But well I still got 5 years to prepare myself. To the future me in 2026 i hope you get into Cornell. ⭐️
hi i love your passion, but there are many schools that offer eveything cornell offers. keep your chin up and work hard, but learn real world skills too
Hey ! I wanna be a vet too, Cornell is my dream, we’re in the same boat :)
Remember, even if you don’t end up going to Cornell, many other great schools and options are out there to help you become a vet! Good luck to future you
Do diploma marks matter
If i get in by early decision and I won't get financial Aid, do i have to still go there?
You don't
Hi Julia, we answered your question in this week's Q&A: czcams.com/video/zdyYGWoDUmg/video.html
As SAT and ACT is suspended for 2021 applicants, when we can apply for cornell university ?
Cornell announced its test-optional policy, so an ACT/SAT won't be required when applying for admission this Fall - meaning you can apply without a score.
@@jacksonk7472 Will it make the admission more tough or I have to focus on essay more to get admission ?
i took all ap classes in my school in my high school and scored a B is that a disadvantage?
Hi Fatima, it really depends on your individual profile and what other components you have. If you want to see if your chances are strong for Cornell, we recommend inputing your GPA and AP scores, along with other information, into our free chancing calculator so that you can get an accurate idea of your acceptance chances: cv.watch/2W7xct4
Hotel Administration has like a 40% acceptance rate. Calm down. Take 4-6 SCE courses over summer fall/winter and you'll likely be accepted with a 3.6+ GPA, if you get 6 A's you will get in as a transfer. Sure it's Pricey, but if you're going into Cornell your parents have money either way.
What if you didn’t sign up for any aps?
Morgan Hissim indeed
Mishkat A. no offense but colleges look for APs
It depends on if your school offers APs and when they allow you to take them. For example, my school offers around 8-10 APs, but you can't take below junior year and even juniors are restricted to 3 APs (or 4 APs at max which has never been attempted before) so I can't be compared to schools that let underclassmen take APs. You just have to figure out what your circumstances are.
Your fucked plain and simple
Hi! I was recently deferred from the Hotel School. I would love to contact you and see where I should go from here.
Hi Maxyiey, we recommend you watch this video to learn more about what to do after you've been deferred: czcams.com/video/VoGcNuXBeMQ/video.html
will I get into Cornell with a current average of 100.2?
This just made me scared
Is school of engineering more selective or the school of arts and sciences ?
Hi there, both have similar acceptance rates. This past year the acceptance rate for engineering was around 10.5%, while the acceptance rate for arts and sciences was around 9.9%. You can learn more here: irp.dpb.cornell.edu/university-factbook/undergraduate-admissions
The acceptance rate for men is around 3 times less than for women for the engineering college. I assume you're a guy, so just keep that in mind.
Aamir thanks but I got rejected already 😔😔😔
Dang that sucks man. Did you get in anywhere else?
Aamir not the ivies but I got in everywhere else that I applied. I’m happy with where I’m going to but still, Cornell was really a dream school for me 😔
Since this year the requirements of SAT/ACT scores are optional, will they make any impact on my application if I go ahead without them since the deadline is near. Do I have chances of selection?
I recommend you absolutely try to submit SATs if you can, as in practice, the overwhelming majority of people accepted are people who gave SAT scores. It's basically one of the best ways for them to assess your level of readiness for their curriculum.
what’s the acceptance rate for the transfer student ? (hotel of admission)
Thanks! :)
Hi Kuan-Yu, Cornell's transfer acceptance rate for the School of Hotel Administration isn't readily available online, however, the overall transfer acceptance rate is around 17.89%.
@@CollegeVine Transfer acceptance rates are inflated though because of the Transfer Option pathway that Cornell offers to some students at the time of admission, which is a guaranteed transfer.
@@jasonl6537 Yeah and that number is also from nearly 5 years ago.
Please make one for Masters course too
I was born in India. I have citizenship of India. I have also completed my graduation from a school in India and my graduation marks is 58%. My graduation has been completed and I want to under graduate now, but my financial situation is very bad. Because of which I am not able to study. I have come to know that michael in millikan scholarship is given by Ratan Tata. Can I apply for this scholarship as well? i hope reply me please.
I’m not too sure regarding the conversion rate of Indian marks to North American marks, but a 58% doesn’t look the greatest for a resume
I got in ED but I’m still watching haha
