Thanks for any and all replies!

Your stats look great. I think you have a decent shot at getting into AEM. How are your essays?

@crystalwaters23 Thanks for the chance. My common app one writes about how different cornell is from where I am transferring from but I don’t bash my old school, so I think its alright. The supplement I will start today. Are you applying as well?

Actually that’s not at all the case. AEM has such small class sizes per year - sub 225 students. Typically Freshman year there are 25-50 Transfer Options handed out to AEM students. Most of the transfers you see sophomore year in AEM are TOs. Again, the overall class size remains very small, and the overall transfer rate from external students into AEM is sub 10%.

@spemmar1 I don’t see the need for you to comment on both the transfer thread and my personal chance post. Can you please remove the above?

My apologies. I didn’t mean to post that in your thread.

@johnpfc3 AEM is competitive, but your stats look pretty good. How come you don’t like Emory? I am applying to both Cornell and Emory for transfer. Are you in a frat at emory?
