Cornell was a great school to attend for me. I majored in Animal Science but had a focus within dairy cattle management and agricultural business. The way the schools within the university work together helped me to gain experience in areas I never would have had the opportunity to experience elsewhere. While the college of agriculture and life sciences was where most of my major courses were, I was able to take courses within the business school and arts school and even some classes that were considered...

As a liberal arts alum, my experience at Cornell University was incredibly rewarding. The academic environment was both challenging and supportive, with professors who genuinely cared about student learning and intellectual growth.

The student body was diverse, motivated, and collaborative, creating an atmosphere where it felt normal to be... Read More curious and engaged. There were also countless clubs, organizations, and activities, so it was easy to find communities and stay involved outside the classroom. The campus environment encouraged both academic focus and personal growth. Cornell’s strong reputation and career resources also opened up many job and internship opportunities after graduation, which made the experience feel worthwhile both intellectually and professionally.

My undergraduate experience as an Animal Science major at Cornell University was incredibly rewarding and intellectually challenging. The program blended rigorous science-based coursework with invaluable hands-on learning, from time spent in the teaching barns to research opportunities with passionate faculty. The small-program feel within a large university created a strong sense of community, and I always felt supported by advisors who genuinely cared about my goals. Cornell pushed me to think...

It was demanding, but it prepared me exceptionally well for professional school and helped shape my confidence and direction in the veterinary field.

I'm a student at Cornell University's Nolan School of Hotel Administration and attending this program has been one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life so far! The faculty are all hospitality professionals who have experience in their field before coming to teach here, the quality of information being taught is phenomenal, and the school has so many resources for you to take advantage of, like connecting with other alumni, especially ones working in your field of study. As for Cornell... Read More University itself, beautiful scenery, nice gothic-structured buildings in some areas, and has the best library to study in! Although, the student population is a bit large for me. I wish Cornell was a bit smaller in student numbers so it would be easier to schedule one-on-ones with professors. I chose this school over my acceptance to Princeton simply because Cornell is the only Ivy League school to offer undergraduate business programs and they had the one I was really wanting to get into. Definitely recommended!

Cornell University offers an incredibly diverse curriculum in an idyllic setting in the Finger Lakes region of Upstate New York.

Cornell has often been referred to as the easiest Ivy League school to get into, but the hardest to stay in.

Cornell University is a prestigious Ivy League that definitely earns its reputation. The two years I spent at Cornell were jam-packed because I had to fulfill my graduation requirements and work multiple jobs to keep me afloat. Because of my crammed schedule, my undergraduate experience was difficult. When I look back and think of how it would have been if I decided to focus solely on my studies, I think it would have been much different. This is not to say however, that Cornell is not a hard institution.... Read More I think Cornell is probably the most difficult out of all the U.S. Ivy Leagues. However, Cornell has A LOT to offer with a wide range of course selections and most of the professors are willing to help you with networking and connections with other departments. You need to be smart about using your resources (if you're more focused on networking) and make the connections before your time is up. Attend all of your classes because even if the professor doesn't take attendance, you will probably miss something that he/she will be putting on the exam!

Cornell was a very special place to spend four years. Its "any person, any study" motto can sound unsophisticated when compared to its peers, but it really gets to the heart of what makes the institution unique. Women and minorities have always been welcomed at the school, and its broad curriculum means you will have the opportunity to learn not just in the classroom but also through a class that represents all forms of diversity. After all this is the land of Carl Sagan, Vladimir Nabokov, Richard... Read More Feynman, and even the millennial favorite, the notorious RBG. There are so many people and academic opportunities that it is impossible to not find your niche.
