<p>I would recommend any of you out there to apply to the Telluride House at Cornell. I attended TASP this summer, and must say the Telluride Association is about the BEST thing out there if you want a good education! If you are into thinking, I really don't think Telluride is equaled in the opportunities it provides. Plus, it's free room and board in a beautiful, rustic mansion with its own library and internet system.</p>

<p>hm..is this open to all applicants of cornell?</p>

4

<p>Isn't it the Deep Springs house thingy of Cornell? I remmember reading about it somewhere!</p>

5

<p>The Telluride House is not your average dorm. It's more of an intellectual community, with students of all ages and interests mixed together. Telluriders have to follow certain community functions like giving 1-hour presentations on a topic of their choice once a semester, participating in democratically run house-meetings, and managing the daily functions of the house.<br>
As I said earlier, all of you should apply. But understand that the Telluride House is (I think) more of an experience than a dorm. From what I hear, it can be pretty intensive, and the people who live there are all at the top of their intellectual game.
To all juniors out there, apply to TASP, and put Cornell as your first choice! It will change you.</p>

<p>can you only apply junior/senior year or something?</p>
