Sorry to say it, but you have no chance at all. Your GPA is abysmal by Cornell standards. You didn’t list SAT or ACT scores but those would have to be close to perfect to give the admissions officers something to distract from the rest of your info so far. The Ivies really like to see ECs which reflect leadership ability and commitment to a certain task, so your ECs are pretty average by their standards, although other colleges might see them differently. If Cornell is your dream school, I would study, study, study to get an excellent score on your standardized tests if you can get the results before you apply. Obviously make the essay as good as possible and get some good recommendation letters. From the looks of it, I would advise you now to find some more plausible school options.
