<p>The hardest part about getting in to the Hotel School is showing your interest. Your ECs have to clearly demonstrate an interest in the field.</p>
<p>What are the stats of the people that normally get in?
*It varies--probably lower SAT than cornell in general. But I think in many ways the school is harder to get in because they pay alot of attention to how you would fit into the school/how happy you would be at the school and your personality.</p>
<p>Is it hard to get into compared to the other schools?
*If you apply to hotel because you think it is easy, it will probably the the hardest school. If you</p>
<p>How is the rigor of the school?
*It depends on your schedule and what you are good at. If you apply to the school and hates hotels and cooking,y ou will hate your life. Trust me</p>
<p>The Hotel School also really values work experience as, I believe, 85% of students have had prior work experience</p>
<p>Passion for the hospitality industry and showing it through the interview is key</p>
<p>my friend is going to be a senior in the hotel school and some of the courses she takes are actually really hard. its just like any other advanced level courses. hotel has an "easier rep" but that wines course is the most failed class offered</p>
<p>^and actually, wines isn't that hard :-)</p>
<p>yea but people fail it like no other. haha who knows if people actually drink too much during class and then cant focus</p>
<p>I think the hardest part is that the class is just straight memorization (the wine portions we get in class are tiny). Since you need 210/300 points to pass I think people blow off the 1st prelim and count on the final to pass. But...I thought the final was hard. For some reason, people mix up Bordeaux and Burgundy or they mix up the Left and Right Banks of Bordeaux.</p>
<p>Oh well...I still recommend all the seniors take it. It's a valuable class.</p>
