<p>Is there an admissions edge for NYers at the NY land contract colleges at Cornell? I can't seem to find any published stats for in-state versus out-of-state acceptances by college. thank you.</p>
<p>From CALS [url=<a href=“http://www.cals.cornell.edu/cals/prospective/admissions/first-year/faq.cfm#suny]FAQs[/url”>http://www.cals.cornell.edu/cals/prospective/admissions/first-year/faq.cfm#suny]FAQs[/url</a>]</p>
<p>"How does this arrangement [between CALS and SUNY] influence the College’s commitment to resident and non-resident students?</p>
<p>“As a statutory college within the State University of New York, we are committed to maintaining a strong presence of New York State residents in our student body. A majority of the students in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences are New York State residents. However, the College is also committed to enrolling a student body that is geographically diverse. Given these commitments, it is also important to note that geography is not by itself a determining factor in any admission decision.”</p>
<p>I read this to say it helps some!!</p>
<p>Thanks for you reply! </p>
<p>“A majority of the students in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences are New York State residents”</p>
<p>Now I’d say it helps a lot! Too bad I’m not a NYer :(</p>
<p>Did anyone ever see admit stats by college and NY or not? I wonder if it holds true for Human Ecology?</p>
<p>Actually, it doesn’t help that much. The only place I think CALS puts emphasis is on the NY state farming community, because that’s where it has a commitment. Otherwise, I’ve never heard of any admissions person talking about giving an edge to in-state residents in other areas.</p>
