I was offered admission to Claremont McKenna College and a Transfer Option to Cornell ILR. Any thoughts on which to pick? I don’t want to transfer once I’m at CMC, especially because it’ll be extremely expensive compared to just transferring from my local state school and I don’t think there will be any need to.
Main points:
CMC is more student oriented than Cornell.
CMC and ILR are both small and offer lots of student services, maybe CMC a little more so but I was expecting to be very involved and take the initiative at ILR anyway.
Cornell is more well-known on the east coast and, more important to me, internationally whereas CMCclare is a heavyhitter mainly on the west.
GPA is similar at both - I am currently looking at law school.
I feel like transferring is a pain and there’s always a risk I won’t be able to.
I love both schools a lot a lot??? Maybe Cornell a little more? Idk…
Any advice would be appreciated!
