I'm currently a student at a high tier NESCAC and am considering transferring to Cornell for social reasons. That being said, the odds of me transferring directly into Cornell's Dyson School of Business are extremely slim and I'm debating just applying to Cornell non-Dyson. How would my recruiting...

Duke vs. Dartmouth vs. Cornell I'm applying to college this fall and trying to find out where to ED. This is a major factor. All three seem to have similar IB placement so i wanna know which one will help me get the best gpa

I've committed to Cornell CAS and I was looking to get some advice as to what I should major in. I plan on majoring in math, and due to the structure of the major and its requirements, it's relatively easy and common to double major. The second majors I'm most interested in are CS and econ. I'm...

I've just finished my first semester at a major Florida school (UF/FSU/UCF) with a 3.90 and just admitted to my school's honors program. I intend on leaving the sunshine the baddies and the y-bombs for better academic prospects up north. I've been told Cornell is the most transfer friendly ivy, so I...

Hi guys, I am a high school senior from an Asian country, and want to work as a quant. I want to ask that is Cornell better than Vanderbilt with a significant margin? For context, I have a decent profile; I was in my country's IMO team (didn't win anything tho). I can easily get a full ride at...

Hey guys, I'm an international student trying to make this big decision so I'd love to know what people who actually know what they're talking about think about my options. I got pretty much the same financial aid from both schools, so cost is not a factor. My short-term goal would probably be to...

Hi guys. I was recently admitted to NYU Stern on a half-scholarship, and am 90% ready to commit. However, I'm yet to hear from Cornell A&S, which is why I'm waiting until that decision to put a deposit on Stern. What are the pros and cons to each? I doubt I would be at a disadvantage from a...

They only started in 2019 I think and there are no statistics on employment. How do you think the programs rank compared to Duke Fuqua MQM, Duke Fuqua MMS, UMich Ross MiM, Northwestern Kellogg MSMS, UVA McIntire MS Commerce, Notre Dame Mendoza MSM?

Hey Monkeys, Anyone have Cornell Hotel School materials they are willing to share? Was looking at the e-courses but they are pretty expensive so my broke ass doesn't want to pay up.

So I'm currently a freshman at Indiana University's Kelley School of Business. I just applied to transfer to USC Marshall and Cornell ILR (not the business school). I did this mostly because my parents wanted me to, and I know I shouldn't count my eggs before they hatch but I genuinely feel that I...

For a long time, I was planning on doing Early Decision to Wharton. Mostly, I was under the impression that it would be extremely financially difficult for my family to pay $320k for a college education (we aren't getting aid unless we can re-apply when my sister enters dental school) but I have...

So, I am about to start college in the Northeast and wanted to know how do I go about selecting a quality navy blazer to wear year around.

If I major in Information Science (CALS) with a minor in either AEM/Econ/Math/Stats/Psych, how hard would it be to break into IB? Also, which of the minors I listed would be preferred by Investment Banks?

I recently got into CALS with a Transfer Option, so I will be entering Cornell during my sophomore year. Because of this, I will not be able to major in AEM.. What major should I do in CALS considering I want to break into IB. Also, how hard is it to switch from CALS to CAS/SHA during my sophomore...

From past responses on this forum, I'm going to assume the response to the below question is to network and land a job in the chosen field then get the MBA at Cornell few years later.....but had to ask the question anyways.

I have been admitted to Cornell ED as an intended mathematics major from the Silicon Valley. However, I have thought about this for a while and have decided that a computer science major would allow me to work in the silicon valley in case I don't break into IB. Cornell offers CS in both its A&S and...

I am a rising sophomore at Berkeley, and I received a guaranteed transfer option to Cornell AEM. Is Cornell better than Berkeley for ibanking? If so, does anyone know how much better it is (like how many more Cornell grads place in BB than Berkeley grads)? And is it a lot easier to get an interview...

H.S. Senior here!! I wanted to hear opinions on Dartmouth v. Cornell v. Stern in terms of OCR and presence on the Street. I have also heard a lot about the 'Ivy' brand. Do you think that the brand of Dartmouth and Cornell would be more advantageous than Stern's location? All thoughts are...

As a rising hs senior I have two options. I ask that you evaluate both and provide me reasons to pick the one of your preference. Keep in mind that I want to become a banking analyst after graduation (hopefully in a solid M&A group) and exit to MM PE soon after. 1) Apply Early Decision to Cornell...

Hey guys I am a sophomore at UNC Chapel Hill and I am in the business school here. I applied as a spring transfer to Cornell CAS and was wondering what I should do in terms of school.

Hey everyone! I'm a high school senior who is deciding between Cornell Dyson and UT BHP. I live in Austin, so I have in-state tuition for UT. If Cornell is worth it, my family and I are willing to work out the extra costs (roughly $200k with general expenses factored in). I really don't want to stay...

Fortunate enough to be admitted to both schools with full scholarships. Admitted to Ross and Darden as well but missed on the very top schools, and have decided that the difference between my admits is not big enough to justify paying $120k more. Have 4 years of marketing experience for F100...

I'm off to Cornell CAS this fall. I applied ED last fall to CAS rather than AEM (I've always wanted to do finance, just CAS was easier to get into, and I like learning a variety of subjects rather than just Finance/Business courses). I plan to major in Econ if I stay in CAS. I'm also considering...
