<p>The prompt for CAS says to tell how I will utilize the ACADEMIC programs to further my interests. Does this mean I should NOT talk about sports/clubs that don't relate to my main interest? I've written a rough draft essay and only talked about my interests and Cornell's academic programs and it's about 480 words (500 word max for essay). Is anyone else doing this but talking about stuff other than academics?</p>

<p>I think this is clearly different from a "Why Cornell" essay. It's more "Why Cornell's academics?" what do you guys think?</p>

<p>Ugh. I'm having trouble with this too.</p>

<p>you _____ing idiots, please do a forum search on this topic before posting, its not that hard, there have been atleast 8 similar topics in the last two weeks</p>

<p>The essay should be about why you would fit in at the certain program at cornell. Not about clubs n such.</p>
