<p>No, I don’t intend to.</p>
<p>What are you majoring in IV (assuming you get in, which I’m sure you will with your baller scores/grades)?</p>
<p>@rotflmaospencer:
At the moment I am between Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics for a major (after I am well into my AP Chemistry course I will probably know whether or not I want to pursue it; taking Calculus BC will give me some insight into college level math as well).
I also want to minor in Astronomy (as Cornell has one of the best Astronomy programs in the country and I have a lot of interest in it).</p>
<p>I hope to be a Neurobiology major! 
I believe that is in the College of Arts and Sciences…</p>
<p>Any other future hotelies? I’m planning to apply ED to the Hotel School.</p>
<p>Starting the great college application year at Cornell.<br>
Stats: SAT 2280 (CR 790, Math 770, W 720)
SAT II World Hist 770 (Waiting on Math II and Physics)
AP World Hist 4, Latin 5 (Waiting on Calc BC, Physics EM and Eng. Lit)
Rank 1/292 in blue collar PA high school
Comments appreciated.</p>
<p>does anyone know the acceptance rate (ED & RD) for CAS not the whole university? I seriously can’t find it…</p>
<p>Doesn’t show Ed but this may help:</p>
<p><a href=“http://dpb.cornell.edu/documents/1000146.pdf[/url]”>http://dpb.cornell.edu/documents/1000146.pdf</a></p>
<p>So, for those of you who don’t feel like figuring out that chart, the CAS 2009 overall acceptance rate was 16.7%. That number will probably continue to do down–although nothing is certain.</p>
<p>@scoutsmom- your son/daughter wouldn’t happen to be a Conrad Weiser Scout, would they?</p>
<p>@CornelHopeful, no we’re not that PA high school.</p>
<p>We took the Cornell Engineering College tour, and came away with the impression that Cornell does its best to give the students hands-on, real life experiences in engineering - and that for sure I’m too old for college - too many stairs!!
Our guide talked mostly about the project teams he was on and the competitions in his classes to “make the best” of something. He was a second year mechanical engineering student, but he did say that every engineering program is designed to make the engineering education practical and useable in the real world.</p>
<p>^ Took a general tour and I remember something about an annual Dragon Day between first-year Engineering and Architecture students.</p>
<p>Jersey = yes! I remember that too. it happens on the last day before spring break and apparently the Architecture students always win</p>
<p>I’m probably going to ED to the hotel school</p>
<p>Applying ED for College of Human Ecology. Taking a campus tour July 16th. I’m super excited!</p>
<p>Looks like not many people are doing ED to CALS like me. However, I still can’t decide on a minor at CALS…</p>
<p>Do you think it is too risky for a Canadian to ED Cornell (for the financial aid…the new policy has cut back on a lot of aid for Canadians)? I really like Cornell after researching it and plan to visit.</p>
<p>
I’m not applying ED but I might apply to CALS AEM.</p>
<p>Hey Jersey, where are you applying ED?</p>
<p>I’m not applying ED anywhere. Currently deciding between Stanford/Yale for REA/SCEA though.</p>
<p>^ Jersey, I would recommend going with Yale. Stanford seems to care a lot less about ultra-high scorers (which I will define as 2390 or 2400). In the decisions threads from 2014 and 2013, only 1/10 such people was accepted early at Stanford. At Yale, it was 8/21.</p>
