<p>I've read posts by people talking about Cornell transfer agreements. Can someone explain these to me? I looked at the website. If I take the required courses at a community college that is on the Cornell website, will I be guaranteed a transfer to Cornell? Sadly, this sounds too good to be true.</p>
<p>Are you talking about the guaranteed transfer option? It’s given to students who applied for undergraduate admission as HS seniors. It’s different from being waitlisted in that they deem you a good fit for the school and would like to have you, but cannot accept you as a freshman due to lack of space and instead give you a guaranteed place in the class for sophomore year (not sure if it extends to junior year if you decide to transfer after 2 years instead of 1) on condition you meet certain requirements (a minimum GPA, no grade below a B or B-, certain classes). Unfortunately, I don’t believe taking the recommended courses elsewhere would guarantee a transfer.</p>
<p>Anyone doing this for 2013, Fall? I am and was wondering what thoughts or suggestions you have.</p>
