undesirable during for both high schoolers and transfers



The higher yield is due to guranteed nature? Kids don't apply to any others, just straight-up transfer. The lower yield is because if they want a transfer they usually have multiple options?

I would argue that Cornell’s transfer rate is much lower than that if you do not have a transfer option. There’s no way to parse out which transfer applicants were applying the with the TO application or the regular transfer application.

Yes, students given a transfer option actually apply again. All students are told that having a TO is not a guaranteed admission. The application is pretty low key and doesn’t require a fee, essays or letters. But it is an application.

I agree.
I think Brown is depressing (New England weather) but people love it for its grade inflation.

the emory bozo is out in force again. these other places grant degrees and are not 2 year junior colleges like oxford

Oxford being 2 years makes it more valid not less. Getting into Oxford College is much harder than Transferring into Cornell or Vandy after 2 years at CC. Cornell has guaranteed transfer and Vandy has a 25% transfer acceptance rate thats likely to increase after they open these side campuses.


The Transfer Option for Cornell is only available if you got waitlisted at Cornell. Is getting on the waitlist at Cornell harder or easier than getting admitted to Oxford at Emory?

Yes Oxdord is still harder and no TO is not only for waitlisted students.


Oxford is 15% admission rate.
Cornell is 8% admission rate.


Contract colleges much higher acceptance rate.


Cornell CALS (one of the "easier" contract colleges) 8% admission rate.


The other day someone posted a link to Cornell admissions. For CALS it's 12%. Hotel 22%.

Brown is impossible to get in these days, especially for girls.
Grade inflation does make a huge difference.

You might be right. But there is a difference between IS and OOS.

Not for Nolan. It is not a land grant school at Cornell.

What is the difference in acceptance rates between IS and OOS?

Earlier you mentioned that Cornell "[admits] the most competitive and compelling candidates regardless of residency." So no advantage for in-state admissions-wise?

You are arguing for Emory with a losing hand. A bit of research would set you straight.

For clarification, I was the first to post this, as a quotation of stated policy. Here is the information in context, directly from Cornell.


How competitive/selective is the undergraduate admissions process if I apply to the Cornell Human Ecology? How does being a New York State resident impact the process? - Frequently Asked Questions https://share.google/uAw9FwmM9UbhvSXWS

Now compare that to Emory's Oxford campus. 13% with 1500 test avg.

Emory is test optional with 43% submitting SAT and 20% submitting ACT. Plus they take/enroll over 60% via ED

Cornell is now test required and they started to take less from ED couple of years ago.

Recent events aside, Brown is incredibly charming and the location in an upscale, leafy low-rise urban neighborhood is convenient.
