<p>I have a horribe GPA (3.35... slacked off at first but improved a lot jr year. Grade deflation is also rampant in my school) and decent SAT (1420/2170 at the moment, just retook it and expecting a 2200-2300), so my stats are probably very low compared to those of the usual Cornell applicant. However, I heard from many people that the hotel school isn't as numbers-based (IIRC, some people got accepted with sub-3.5 GPAs and/or sub 30 ACT scores). Are my stats in range of the usual hotel school applicant? What do you think are the major factors in hotel school admissions besides SAT and GPA? </p>
<p>Notes:
-I'm planning on getting an internship at a local hotel for the summer or even longer. This'll be my first time working in a hotel.
-I'm genuinely interested in the hotel biz, so keep in mind that I'm not applying to the hotel school as a backdoor into Cornell :P
-I am a junior at the moment</p>
<p>i had these stats and i was accepted through rolling this year. </p>
<p>Chance me for hotel school please!</p>
