<p>How hard is it to get into AEM? What are the stats?</p>
<p>its supposed to tough. Didn't you want to goto Hotel first?</p>
<p>Yes, but I really dont want to be concerned with the "hospitality" issues. I want to do BUSINESS.</p>
<p>I am just trying to explore different options. What do you suggest?</p>
<p>If Cornell is the "easiest to get into and the hardest to get out of," AEM is the converse. (According to my friends who are AEM majors.) You can minor in business if you take some other major in CALS, but I've heard AEM is relatively tough to get into. Anyone have a statistic?</p>
<p>Would you recommend going the Hotel school and majoring in business?</p>
<p>No. The Hotel School is for people who really want to go into the hotel business. (Or cooking.) It's not a general business school. In fact, that would probably be harder to get into if you weren't interested in the hospitality industry, because they could probably tell that from your application.</p>
<p>I want to go into Real Estate development....(apartments/hotels)</p>
<p>which school would I have to go to?</p>
<p>Real estate (owning and building hotels) is different from hospitality (running/staffing hotels) and I think you'd be much better off with AEM. Or Medieval Studies. I'm an engineer, by the way, but these questions have been asked many times, here and in person to my AEM friends.</p>
