My DC is straight A, highest rigor, 1580+, not yet decided on major, but will be STEM related, possibly an engineering discipline. Some of the negative comments about Cornell make the decision to attend Cornell full pay even harder. We need more positive comments to make the decision…[/quote]
i've held off on posting since i feel like i've painted a very rosy picture of DD's freshman year so far and didn't want to go overboard. but here's my positive 2 cents - she's having a blast in CAS and mix of humanities/STEM classes. has classmates in engineering who are working hard but some are actually doing quite well. it's a grind but she feels like she grinded harder in high school and is really enjoying her time. happy to answer further questions.

Thank you. If your DD is from the DMV area, how does she feel about the Ithaca weather? This is the first unfavorable factor listed by the person who posted after you (thanks to s/he too). I worried about the weather because I know my DD does not like cold weather, but now she says she is fine with that. [/quote]
we are in boston suburb so she's totally used to it (doesn't love it but is fine). i grew up in dmv and went to school in new england, but it's not like my college memories are colored by the weather at all. sure, i remember the wind tunnel i had to walk through, snow in april, and how it was super hot one summer without ac but what mattered more were the friends i made, the new experiences i tried, and the academic opportunities that led me to my current career path.
