Cornell, Vandy, Brown and Columbia are definitely hot. Don't know where all this Emory boosterism is coming from, though.

Not sure if Cornell is declining but it's definitely NOT HOT. The others (including Emory) are, especially Brown. Genz wants big city with collaborative atmospheres, Cornell is the complete opposite.

Last year was the most selective year on record for all top schools except Cornell. Before the pandemic apps to Cornell dropped considerably.

Wow, lies upon lies. The exact article you linked to itself states that Cornell had 2,000+ more apps that year than the previous year.

Last year was also Cornell's most selective year, as its acceptance rate dropped down to 8.7%. Why do you keep lying?

??? Cornell is extremely hot among the private school my kid goes to, and the Northeast privates my relatives' kids attend. One look at online forums that kids actually frequent also confirms that Cornell continues to be "hot."

My DC chose Mendoza at Notre Dame for business over Emory Goizueta, Vanderbilt Econ, Brown Econ.

Emory and Vanderbilt I could understand, but ND over Brown is an... interesting choice.

Brown doesn't seem to place better than Mendoza for finance?

This list says Brown is a bit better for finance per Capita, however all 4 of those schools are ranked fairly close 14-21.

Apps for Cornell are down, y'all lie on here a lot. Emory and Notre Dame had the highest increase in early apps this year within the top 25. 20 and 13 percent increases. Emory doesn't need boosterism... Whatever that means.

Why are you lying? Cornell apps are up. https://cornellsun.com/2021/08/25/cornells-class-of-2025-sees-lowest-acceptance-rate-in-recent-years-sets-records/

Cornell, along with Stanford, purposefully doesn't partake in the admissions arms race, as it sees no need to aggressively bring its numbers down in the same way that schools like Emory, Vandy and ND feel like they need to.

Cornell hides it's numbers for a reason, it's not Stanford.

DP must think going test blind isn't aggressive. How are Emory and Dame being overly aggressive in the admissions game when they don't do anything different from other schools?

How so?

NP. Literally every single child I know from this area that chooses Elon is learning disabled in some way. Not severely, but ADHD and others that prevented admission into other schools. I think it's great as an option for those kids, and it's quite possible one of mine may attend there, but it is not a strong academic school, at all. I am very close to two graduates and their and their classmates outcomes and options upon graduation were so limited, that it really makes me question the value of the school. It really lacks diversity and is full of underwhelming students of wealthy parents. They decline many many students who they know will not likely attend because they applied as a safety, in order to try to maintain a sub-80% acceptance rate. That in and of itself is a real turnoff. The up and coming schools that aren't gaming the system that way: Indiana and Pitt.

You have no idea what you are talking about.

NP. Actually, there's some truth there, plus a 70% acceptance rate.

If Cornell is hiding its numbers, how come we’re able to see them in the articles both linked to above?

I have no affiliation with Cornell but I think it’s really weird that people are trying to deny its popularity. It’s very in, especially among STEM students.

Emory at least definitely pumps up its numbers through aggressive marketing.

Wasn’t Emory caught falsifying its admissions data a while back?
