<p>i applied from nyu cas for sophmore status at cornell CALS with a lower gpa then you and similar stats and extracurriculars and i got in. but, CALS is easier to get into than CAS and COE. I think you have a good shot, but its all a crapshoot being admissions tends to be really hard. good luck!</p>

<p>You may be able to choose a major and a backup major: if you really want to go to Cornell though, COE is considerably easier to get into than CAS (8% acceptance rate for transfers).</p>
