<p>"am I going to have a good chance to be well positioned career-wise coming out of UVA's undergrad business school?"</p>
<p>Yes, absolutely.</p>
<p>HBS and Wharton.But if you dont mind applying to colleges other thAn Ivyleague,then you can try in Stanford Business school and MIT Sloan.</p>
<p>Is economics as well-recruited as the business program at Cornell? What about people in the hotel school looking for jobs in business?</p>
<p>For graduate:
1. Wharton
2. Harvard
3. Columbia</p>
<p>For undergrad:
1. Wharton (and only Wharton)</p>
<p>You can go to wherever you want from the Hotel School, just like from anyschool. Perhaps you could make your concentration some sort of business one and get good grades and you'll do fine (plus the hotel school is #1). </p>
<p>Cornell also has 230,000 alumni and growing. Wharton is obviously the best, but Cornell is the only other Ivy with an accredited business program.</p>
<p>If you are a good student you can't fail at any of the colleges listed, especially because we seem to be leaning to undergrad. Grad would be Harvard, undergrad would be Wharton. You can succeed at any of those universities listed in this thread....even if you are the only person on CC to not go to the #1 ranked school lol</p>
<p>1 Harvard
2 Wharton
3 Stanford
4 Columbia/Kellogg</p>
<p>Did this horrible thread really need to be bumped? I don’t think I would put Stanford in the top 3 Ivy League business schools.</p>
<p>Oops, I’m an idiot.</p>
<p>I’m interested in going to Cornell to take business…the only issue i’m having is getting into the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences because it requires science courses like biology, chemistry and physics…now since i want to go into business, i’m taking business courses in gr.12 next year…does anyone know if i’ll still be accepted to Cornell with a gr.12 chemistry credit and a gr.11 biology and physics credit, including all the other admission requirements??? Cuz i’m being offered an athletic scholarship there and i need to know if i am even capable of going…</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You must be mistaken. There are no athletic scholarships offered in the Ivy League.</p>
<p>he could be a recruited athlete who is instate and getting financial aid. That would make AEM pretty darn cheap.</p>
<p>Financial aid is certainly a possibiilty, but I believe the poster said that he is wondering if he’ll get into Cornell ALS (and the poster described his potential 12th grade coursework), meaning that he has not yet applied. If so, then it is unlikely, if not impossible, that he already has a financial aid offer, and it is actually impossible that he has been offered an athletic scholarship.</p>
<p>recruited athletes aren’t given an estimated financial aid calculation? that would seem like the easiest way of getting them to take an expensive private school seriously. Ivies approach athletes, but cannot guarantee admission if the kid just doesn’t have the grades or the scores. </p>
<p>Also, many people refer to financial aid as a “scholarship.” It sounds better than financial aid because it means you’re smart/skilled vs “poor”. I digress, we have no idea what goes on in that poster’s life, only useless speculation.</p>
<p>Ok…what I really meant was financial aid, i confused the idea with scholarship…But there is a good chance that i will be offered “financial aid” or “partial scholarship” next year for potential participation in their athletics, but that’s not even the point…What’s more important to me right now is if i’m capable of getting in the Agriculture and Life Sciences with 3 gr.11 science credits(biology, physics, and chemistry) and 1 gr.12 chemistry credit…because my ultimate goal is to take business at cornell</p>
<p>^a question like that is best asked in the Cornell forum.</p>
<p>cvrle, you would not be offered any financial aid or scholarship based upon your participation in athletics at Cornell (or any other Ivy League school, for that matter). You would only be offered financial aid relative to your family’s financial need, just like any other Cornell student, including those not planning to participate in athletics.</p>
<p>From the Joint Statement for Candidates on Common Ivy Group Admissions Procedure:</p>

</p>
<p>Omg just forget that i even mentioned financial aid, everyone is so concerned with proving me wrong rather then just answering a simple question…</p>
<p>The Cornell CALS website will tell you what prerequisities you need to be considered for admission to that college (including the AEM program). These establish the bare minimum of qualifications you need to have in order to apply. I’m fairly confident in saying that most admitted students have more that the bare minimum under their belts before they apply.</p>
<p>You may have more success asking very Cornell-specific questions on the Cornell board.</p>

</p>
<p>But ya, see that’s the issue that i’m having because i simply don’t have enough room next year to take any more science credits because i want to have a larger array of knowledge in business since that is what i want to pursue…now others would say not to go to Cornell if i’m having this problem but it is ideal for me to go to cornell and i keeping hearing that i they have a good business program</p>
<p>Do you really think that high school business courses are going to propel you towards the business career you seek? If you want to get a college business degree, do what you have to do to get that degree. It’s really that simple. If you need to take more science coursework to get into Cornell, and if you really want to go to Cornell, than I would suggest you do what is required or suggested of you. </p>
<p>You will have plenty of time during college to take all of the college level business classes that you could ever want to take.</p>
