Cornell AEM Guaranteed Transfer or not?

<p>Alright so I was wondering if it would be worth it to transfer into Cornell AEM guaranteed where I would have to specialize in either Agribusiness Management, Environmental Economics, or Food Industry Management. I want to work in the financial field and was considering this option, but am unsure as to what the major difference would be to employers? Should I do this, as it is essentially still the same degree, or try to apply for AEM in concentration of Finance? How difficult is it to transfer into AEM as a student who currently is not at the school? Thank you.</p>

<p>so are you talking about the so-called transfer agreements between community colleges and cornell or were you given the guaranteed transfer option from freshman admissions? to me it sounds like the former, but if you tell me for sure, i can help you out more.</p>

<p>I’m talking about the so-called transfer agreements between community colleges and cornell</p>

<p>yeah, those aren’t really what you think. you get a <em>slight</em> preference over regular applicants, but it’s in no way, shape, or form guaranteed. if there are better people, then too bad - you don’t get accepted. i suggest not trying to get in through the back door and applying honestly.</p>

<p>Ironicallyunsure, you don’t know what you’re talking about. The guaranteed transfer is legitimate if you follow all the proper prereq’s, there is no “preference” over other applicants. I’m using the same agreement right now and all the applicants before me that used the agreement at my CC were admitted with no problems.</p>

<p>@ironicallyunsure. We’ve been over this before. It IS a guarantee. Stop trying to spread misinformation because you are insecure about the prestige of your degree.</p>

<p>There are only certain concentrations that can’t be guaranteed, which judging by the TS’s post, he is well aware of that.</p>
