<p>Prospects are pretty good at Cornell if you do well. I am a Cornell Engineer (CS/OR Double major) and I just landed myself a summer job at a big bank. All the big companies come to recruit here… If you get good grades and take advantage of the ample opportunities present here, you will have good employment prospects. </p>

<p>In all honesty, don’t sweat it. I’ve enjoyed my time here at Cornell but what I got from going here is nothing that I couldn’t have gotten from an honors program at a good state school. If you get financial aid or can afford Cornell comfortably, by all means come to Cornell, but it is sincerely not worth going into $200,000 worth of debt to come here. Just make the best of what you have wherever you go and you will be fine.</p>
