3 Cornellians named Gates Cambridge Scholars

<p>The 3 were among only 30 in the US who were awarded scholarships for graduate study at Cambridge University.</p>

<p>The Gates Cambridge scholarships are similar in structure to Oxford’s Rhodes scholarships and highly competitive [800 applied in the US for the 30 scholarships].</p>

<p>only one so far

<p>srry wrong answer it is
Mr Vijay Kanuru (in Crn law school right now)
Miss Karen McClendon (in crn law school right now)
Mr Michael McMahon (medical school at crn)</p>

<p>The 3 Cornell winners are two current seniors and a recent grad - all undergrads.</p>

<p>^Orly? The one who graduated is an undergrad…
:D</p>

<p>I get what you mean, though. Yay Cornell!</p>

<p>Supervisor, I did word that awkwardly. It is impressive that this year 10% of all Gates scholarship winners in the US currently attend Cornell, or have just graduated from Cornell.</p>

<p>The best college. Why else? ^_^</p>
