<p>I'm applying to Cornell (College of Human Ecology--Nutritional Sciences major) ED this fall. I feel like my interests really fit into the College of Human Ecology, but the nutritional sciences major is offered at the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences too. So should I take advantage of the Primary/Alternate admission option? Even though I feel like if I dont get into CHE I definitely won't get into CALS...</p>
