[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious OP why you have an axe to grind? [/quote]

Sounds like OP's kid's at "top 25 private ( CMU, Emory, Notre Dame etc.)[/quote]
He's applying this year actually. I'm just curious is all. I've never heard of other top 25 private schools with guaranteed transfer, a community college transfer program, AND a public college component to the school. The closest thing to that is Emory's oxford college, but they release the stats for those students, unlike Cornell. My thing is it's very apparent that all ivy league schools get a boost in the ranking just for being ivy league, they get more applications, a higher reputation score, but yet Cornell.... you get the point.

See above OP.  Every other university ranking puts Cornell relatively higher (versus its US NEWS peers).  Personally, I like to consider more than one ranking source when I draw conclusions about how schools compare.

Okay but that doesn't really address my point. How do alum really feel about Cornell's [i]"side"[/i] programs? And would Cornell be top 25 if it wasn't an ivy league. [/quote]
