Macaulay Honors Baruch vs Cornell Dyson
Hey everyone!! I was accepted into both Cornell Dyson and Macaulay Honors Baruch but am at a grip when it comes to cost.
At Macaulay Honors Baruch tuition is free so COA for 4 years will be ~4k.
At Cornell Dyson it will cost 115k for 4 years.
I am having trouble justifying 110k difference for 4 years of school. That said I would love to go Cornell. No debt will happen for Cornell but its a lot for family that may not be necessary.
Thanks a ton!!!!!
I had a similar decision and chose Cornell Dyson. If you want to go into IB, Dyson will be far, far better. I’m much later in my career now and the $115k will (hopefully) not be material. Baruch is the best Macaulay and getting IB is possible but Dyson will make it much easier. Dyson will also make getting grad school not necessary so you can look at it that way.
It’s a risk, but I would bet on yourself. The biggest risk you have is AI so the $115 is riskier that it would have been a decade ago, but I’d still take the risk.
I also know people who went to Baruch and did well, so you can be fine from either.
Thanks but past getting IB offer does it really matter what school you go to?
Have you benefited from going to a school like cornell besides working in IB? Also does the school you go to matter for PE recruiting?
It will be significantly harder to get an IB offer from Baruch than Cornell. It’s hard from both, but I think in Baruch it’s like 20 kids (at most) out of thousands per year that get into IB. I think once you get an IB offer it matters a lot less, but school will never be a question if you go to Cornell. At Cornell, as long as you preform you’ll get a good job. If I were you I’d take the money and try to pay your parents back. You can also look into transferring into Cornell later, but it becomes harder to do and will hurt you in networking with classmates.
