<p>"I have actually never met a person who told me that they got into say HYP(SM too), but was rejected from Cornell. I have not even ever heard of this. However, I am willing to believe that it could happen. Has anyone ever met such a person? I do know people who did not get into Cornell, but got into Emory and Tufts (which I do not consider harder to get into than Cornell). BTW, unfortunately, many people at Cornell were rejected from HYP (sniff…).</p>
<p>Just my 2 cents. "</p>
<p>I know someone who was accepted into Yale and Princeton but rejected from Cornell.</p>
