<p>Cornell doesn't have an IR major, but would it be possible for someone in CAS to create their own independent IR major?</p>
<p>you would do much of your work within the Gov't major...</p>
<p>I was considering a Gov't major but would prefer a more specific IR major. </p>
<p>Here's the thing; I'm going to NYU CAS for my freshman year, and I have GT for Cornell CAS. NYU has a really good IR major, but it's very selective - applicants apply soph year, and only 30-35 are selected per year, which is very little considering NYU's massive student body. Chances are I won't get selected, but I don't care that much because if I decide to use GT, I will transfer to Cornell after freshman yr and won't apply for NYU's IR at all. I'm just trying to explore my options and find out as much as I can.</p>
<p>molly...i'm positive that cornell has much more INTERNATIONAL courses to choose from....</p>
<p>we do have the IR minor which to me would be supplemented with other courses that have a global focus...</p>
