I want to go to cornell, but not because of the fact that it’s close to where I live or one of my family members went there, no one I know has went to an Ivy League, and I live in Europe so it’s not close, but it has one of the best law majors and that’s what I wanna do so I hope that if I work hard enough, I can get an scholarship

@MoLewis57 4 месяца назад

Class of '92 here. I've found myself watching Cornell vids, because of both the hockey team's NCAA playoff game today and an impending visit to Cornell for my wife's ( '94 ) 30th reunion has me nostalgic. Anyway, I'm glad some things never change and they still call Okenshields by the name Okensh*t ( we also called in Chokenshields back in the day ). I guess there is no longer a "Sage Dining" option at Sage Hall. Sage used to be the best place to get food Monday-Friday on the central part of campus ( They served a "McRib"-style sandwich ).

@JoelHernandez-rz4pe 5 лет назад

Thanks so much for your videos. I’m an incoming junior in high school (graduating class of 2021) and I want to apply to Cornell as an architecture or urban planning major. I’ve been doing so much research and Cornell really seems to be the school for me! Cornell’s mission, atmosphere, the programs, the weather, it all fits me as a person. I cannot thank you enough for your content, it’s been a great help!! I plan to apply early admission, and your videos have been such a motivation! THANK YOU! 🐻

@Lemurai 4 года назад

I went through Chem E at this school, jeezus, I’ll be real, it was a complete nightmare, it’s understandable that you have dream schools. Just make sure you have the academic skill set in what you are trying to achieve. In their STEM programs, if you don’t have the fundamentals of upper level math and science mastered you will not pass point blank. Other schools may let you slide on certain topics you don’t understand, but not this school. I was one of the few in my original class that completed the program, most dropped or transferred to out of state uni’s with less stringent req’s for the same major. Bottom line if you go to Cornell for STEM you better have your A game on day one, not gonna lie, I’m glad I did it, but if I knew what I was getting myself into (near death stress) I would have went to a state college. Good luck (insert evil laugh) you’ll need it!

@extravagantpanda7962 4 года назад

Pro tip: best food on campus can be found at the Atrium Cafe in Sage Hall / Johnson School of Management, be sure to get the chips and pickle with your sandwich (just say no to carrots), the P.H.D. spicy eggplant sandwich is fantastic, the Reuben a close second.

@extravagantpanda7962 4 года назад

The black bean quesadillas at Trillium used to be the objective best food on campus until they screwed with the recipe and started using those shitty inferior black beans, and since they replaced the 'salsa or sour cream' lady... just hasn't been the same since.

10:24 The Elmira-Corning regional airport, about 45 minutes from Ithaca, is a great alternative; flights directly to/from Ithaca can be VERY expensive.
