Do the different colleges at Cornell have very different acceptance rates (for out of state)? My DC is interested in a couple of the majors in the College of Human Ecology and am wondering it it is any easier to get into that A&S? |
Is that one of the schools that is not considered part of the “Ivy League” portion of the school?
|
OP here- maybe? I don't know. DC doesn't care about Ivy or not (has no interest or intent on applying to the other Ivies). Just interested in whether that particular college is as "reachy" as Cornell as a whole...need to factor that in when considering the list of colleges to apply to/potential ED school. |
Do hotel management and earn Ivy designation |
Varies enormously. See https://irp.dpb.cornell.edu/university-factbook/undergraduate-admissions To see stats by college. |
Human Ecology is the easiest to get into, but it's still Cornell and thus still Ivy. Why wouldn't it be? |
The whole school is Ivy. |
+1 |
Ivy league relates to sports...it is the whole school. |
I think the snobs are suggesting half the school isn't Ivy. Not true. |
Dyson - business/AEM is the hardest major/school.
It’s part of the contract college…. Ivy = sports league = the entire school No one asks you which part of the uni you were when you graduate & get a job btw |
What is human ecology |
The majors are listed here. I think the big ones are nutrition and design. https://www.human.cornell.edu/admissions/undergraduate-majors |
The whole school is Cornell. Don’t be silly and actually say out loud that the state schools “aren’t Ivy.” I promise that would be more embarrassing for you than it would be for the Connell grad who attended the ILR, Ag or HumEC colleges. |
Yes and yes. A&S and Engineering are the two difficult ones that parallel ivy acceptance rates and have an ivy-type stacked applicant pool. The other ones are no slouch but the applicant and acceptance pool is different (lower course rigor, lower test scores ) |
