some 2010 stats posted

<p>Some of the Institutional Research pages have now been updated with data for the class entering 2010.</p>

<p>Got a link?</p>

<p>to go with that, according to the Chronicle:</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>[Cornell</a> Factbook - Undergraduate Admissions](<a href=“http://dpb.cornell.edu/F_Undergraduate_Admissions.htm]Cornell”>University Factbook - Institutional Research & Planning)</p>

<p>from the acceptances it says about 6,700s , but then the entering section is only about half. doesn’t that mean they have more space if less people decides to attend?</p>

<p>they have more space if less people decide to attend, but Cornell doesn’t expect everybody who is admitted to enroll. In fact, more people than they expected decided to attend this year so they are technically over enrolled with the incoming class.</p>

<p>2010 Admit rates:</p>

<p>Freshmen
Ag 21.2%; Hum Ec 31.3%; ILR 20.1%; Architecture 14.6%; Arts 15.7%;
Engineering 21.7%; Hotel 26.0%; Aggregate 18.4%.</p>

<p>External Transfers
Ag 43.9%; Hum Ec 30.9%; ILR 45.8%; Architecture 10.9%; Arts 7.3%;
Engineering 11.6%; Hotel 30.9% . As always the challenge here is guessing how many of these are GTs.</p>

<p>Thanks for all the info…I think last year the breakdown of each college for SAT scores, etc came out in Oct.</p>

<p>Official stats won’t come out until the 6th week of classes.</p>

<p>The profile is a significant improvement over past year’s profiles. (And even then, Cornell’s profiles from previous years stood as a high water mark for transparency and openness in college admissions. Good luck getting Penn or Duke to disclose a quarter of the info that Cornell does.)</p>

<p>the SAT data I’ve seen so far does show an improvement over prior years, and perhaps Cornell’s highest ever. The fact that Cornell was able to draw these students without a dent in the yield is positive. Normally things like SAT averages and yield are inversely related.</p>

<p>The lack of using the wait list is also nice to seen (I’m looking at you, Duke)</p>

<p>I didn’t know AAP, Hotel, and ILR took so few students.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>SATs may have been affected by some other considerations:</p>

<p>i hate how everything is getting more selective!</p>

<p>So do we here, my son will be applying to colleges this year.
Unfortunately dear alma mater is looking like somewhat of a stretch for him now.</p>

<p>im probably asking in the wrong place . but my high school only has about 2-3 ap classes and im only allowed to take it during the respective years (junior&senior) will that lower my chances into cornell, since i would probably only have 3? :confused: </p>

<p>my high school isnt the best, but the students are pretty competitive(in the top 25% tho).</p>

<p>thanks!</p>

<p>terra, i think it’s difficult to get into cornell if you’re not at least top 10%. the fact that your school has fewer AP’s will not hurt you much, if at all.</p>

<p>guys, for AAP admission being 14.6%, does anybody know specifically the percentage for architecture department? not art or planning included.</p>

<p>bisori : oh, cause i thought Cornell might think that i haven’t had enough rigorous courses yet or something. im in the top 10% , what i meant was the top 25% is probably the most competitive considering my school. and thanks for replying !</p>

<p>Err could someone explain this bit to me:
Freshman Admission Statistics By College
No College Designated
Total applications: 1026 </p>

<p>Does that mean 1026 people actually paid an application fee and all that without choosing a college?</p>

<p>“Does that mean 1026 people actually paid an application fee and all that without choosing a college?”</p>

<p>…yes it does, happens every year! 1,000 students eliminated because they can’t follow that one simple direction. I wonder how many more are rejected for not submitting all of the application requirements (subject tests, letters of rec., essays)?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>In the past, individual majors within AAP were not released, but architecture is very difficult to gain admission. I woudln’t be surprised if it was below 10% as faculty members have alluded to. The admit rate for planning majors is quite high, something around 50% two or so years ago.</p>
