How we review applications
Whether you're a first-year or transfer applicant, there's no magic formula that guarantees admission to Cornell. Because no two students bring the same background, life experiences, and interests to our community, our admission process is highly individualized. We consider each part of your application to evaluate your fit for Cornell’s academics, culture, and philosophy. The result is an incredibly vibrant mix of students to further Cornell’s mission of educating the next generation of global citizens.
