Answer
Cornell was the very first college I visited. I quickly realized that when touring other colleges, I kept comparing each one back to Cornell. That’s when I knew Cornell was the place for me. It was the small things that Cornell had to offer, such as walking over beautiful waterfalls to get to class, having professors eager to have undergraduates join their research labs, and hearing songs played on the clock tower every day, that made me feel it would be the place I’d call home for the next four years.
