<p>Applying for Civil Engineering.</p>

<p>it looks kinda grim after that mispelling</p>

3

<p>are you going to apply for financial aid?</p>

4

<p>I wish people would include the college they are applying to in their chances threads...</p>

<p>Regardless of where you apply, your SAT's and EC's are probably the only points of concern. Your SAT's aren't that good for a Korean guy(I'm Korean too ;)), and you only have one EC basically (track).</p>

5

<p>got a slim chance of getting in. But hell, if they took me than anything is possible.</p>

6

<p>go beyond- no, i won't be applying for financial aid--i don't think i would get any.
tun- most likely applying to CAS, but may consider the engineering school even if my chances are slim to begin with. yeah, my sats and ec's aren't too good for any asian haha. maybe my courseload/gpa will counterbalance?
meestasi- thanks for giving me hope! lol</p>

<p>btw, does anyone know what the last SATII testing date is for Cornell?</p>
