<p>How do my chances look for the Hotel School, and how can I improve them?
Thanks!</p>

<p>bump
anyone??</p>

<p>For the Hotel school at Cornell I think you stand a good chance. You show leadership, various interests, and you show hotel work experience. I think you need one more SAT subject test, although you should probably check their website. If you have time, you should probably retake the SAT to bring the CR score up just a bit (although 600s are acceptable for asians is what I heard :-)).</p>

<p>I unfortunately disagree with chinnychinchang (no offense intended of course). cornell's hotel school is one of the best in the nation, and it's going to be extremely competitive. I would have to say it would be a reach, especially if you do ED because ED means you're going against REAL big leaguers-ppl of your same race that are top 10 in the school, 4.0 GPA, and extremely good SATs and ECs.</p>

<p>So yeah =/ sorry.</p>

<p>So think about before you go through with this.</p>

<p>Jacobe does have a point, ya.. Asians have really good stats. However, you DO have very good hospitality background. ( you went to their summer school lucky you!!) I was told that the interview is crucial and try to have something that make you stand out! i think ur in!</p>
