<p>could i just apply there and transfer to artS+sciences colleges?</p>
<p>Isn't the hotel school the hardest to get into? I mean, it's the best of its kind in America.</p>
<p>chances are if you don't really want to be in the hotel school, you won't get in. the school is very selective in its admissions process and your odds of getting in to arts and sciences are much greater than the hotel school if that is where you are meant to be. and don't take another students spot who really wants to get into the hotel school.</p>
<p>Hotel is difficult to get into....especially if you don't have experience in the hospitality industry.</p>
<p>You could be Harvards most qualified applicant but without work experience you aint got any real shot of getting in.</p>
<p>Statistically, the Hotel School has one of the lowest acceptance rates at Cornell.</p>
<p>why wouldn't you just apply to CAS in the first place? if you're trying to find a backdoor to cornell, hotel is not your door. hotel is EXTREMELY hard to get into. get a better plan...like applying to where you actually want to be as opposed to finding shortcuts and back doors?</p>
<p>the hotel school is definitely not easy to get into. it's the most prestigious of its kind in the country.</p>
<p>and an interview is required for admission, so good luck trying to BS an AO to their face...</p>
<p>it doesn't work that way. You can't just get into the university and then transfer somewhere else. If you want to transfer to another school, you have to apply to that school separately.</p>

Won't work. Your plan blows hard and so do you.</p>
<p>question: so you can’t apply to arts and science…then transfer to hotel?</p>
<p>i have two weeks of experience from last summer at this really good restaurant…and i have this whole summer’s worth of experience. it’s a shame cuz i only found out last year about this program…and after last summer i realized this was my calling. how can i make sure they see that? is two summer’s worth of experience enough??? HELP</p>
<p>what caillebotte said</p>
<p>there is no easy way in to get accepted to cornell…no tricks, no backdoors. show interest WHERE YOUR INTEREST EXISTS</p>
<p>I agree with CUAmbassador11, I think the easiest way to get into Cornell is to figure out what you’re really, truly interested in studying and applying to that. Arts and Sciences is more general, but with the other specialized schools, fit really seems to be one of the major factors in getting accepted.</p>
<p>Coming from someone who works part time in admissions and is a Hotel School Ambassador - yes, two summer’s worth is fine, as long as you can truly express both in your application and interview that hospitality is your passion and that this is truly what you want to do. The reason they stress work experience so much (about 86% of accepted Hotelies have had prior work experience) is because the school wants to ensure that you know what the industry is like firsthand and that you are sure this is what you want to do. This experience can come with anything relating to customer service, such as working in a restaurant, hotel, retail store, marketing, etc. Above all, what they are looking for most in your application is your interest in the school and the industry. However, your grades, SAT scores, and LEADERSHIP is EXTREMELY important. </p>
<p>Hope this helps!</p>
<p>Also, in response to wanting to get into the Hotel School and apply to A&S, that is absolutely impossible. The Hotel School prides itself on the fact that people who apply almost always enroll - therefore, the admissions process is extremely selective compared to the other schools at Cornell. Keep in mind that the Hotel School is the number one school of hospitality management in the entire world. You will be the first application to fall into the “reject” pile if you show any indication of wanting to be in another school than the Hotel School - don’t even waste your time. </p>
<p>A&S is probably the school with the largest acceptance rate out of the schools at Cornell, since the ranges of study are so broad, so you’re better off applying to A&S only.</p>
<p>“…the school with the largest acceptance rate out of the schools at Cornell,…”
can be determined, mathematically, via the published data:
<a href=“http://dpb.cornell.edu/documents/1000003.pdf[/url]”>http://dpb.cornell.edu/documents/1000003.pdf</a></p>
<p>However each school has its own particular criteria, and fit with the particular college’s program of studies is among the most important of them. So I would agree that the college offering the best chance of acceptance for a given individual is the one whose offerings and curriculum best matches his/her abilities, experiences and goals. This point is probably not captured by looking only at the statistics, because the pool of applicants to the specialty colleges is probably more self-selecting in the first place.</p>
<p>Furthermore, any subsequent transfer to CAS is not automatic and cannot be assured.</p>
