<p>There is a HUGE GT thread several pages back… </p>
<p>Case 2 is impossible, Case 3 (I think) is unlikely</p>
<p>lol this thread is getting more and more ridiculous</p>
<p>just wanted to say that yes, CAS does give out GTs, because I got one from them</p>
<p>Not sure what’s not clear about GUARANTEED transfer. I think you’re confusing just regular transfer students and those who applied for freshman year and were guaranteed they would be allowed to transfer in later. You do not need to reapply. You simply file a document stating you wish to attend Cornell, and you do. No one can deny you.</p>
<p>I don’t understand your 3 cases. If you are rejected from Cornell, you are not offered guaranteed transfer. This year 82% of applicants were rejected. If you are offered GT, you are accepted to attend and graduate from Cornell. You are one of the 18% who were accepted. </p>
<p>I was granted that opportunity. I found many GT students were very good students from families that did not have much money. I think it’s a way for Cornell to take them in without paying their way for all four years.</p>
<p>Others were children of very wealthy corporate tycoons. Still others are just normal students for whom there was no room in the freshman class for whatever reason but were still qualified.</p>
<p>Though you’d thought that the kids of very wealthy corporate tycoons could’ve bought their way in or through connections.</p>
<p>You could also be a high school ED -> defer -> GT student like myself and some others I know of. (so, not just RD applicants)</p>
