Cornell University Top Questions

Just - Cornell, for all of its flaws, is a wonderful place. (except for the bloody hills!)

Cornell is definately a place we love to hate. Sometimes I would give anything in the world to go home and never come back, but then other times I look around and realize how happy and lucky I am to be there. It's somewhat of a rollercoaster, to be honest, so get ready.

GO BIG RED

You can have an awesome college experience anywhere, but here's a few things that I think makes Cornell stand out... 1. Academic Standard: Bottom line, the people here are talented in so many ways...the people who teach us are even more talented...and the people who hold this university together are progressive thinkers. You'll be challenged, and you'll love it 2. Location: You'll be surprised how much having a beautiful campus keeps your spirits up! 3. Tradition: Cornellians are proud of everything Cornell! Sports, academics, you name it!

Cornell is great if you can handle the workload

This survey took way too long. I love Cornell, most days. Some days I hate it. Its a complicated relationship between me and my Alma Mater. Its a beautiful place, a wonderful town, filled with bright, fun, caring people. But the academic rigor would quell many a fine spirit. For the most part, the admissions dept tries to select (I believe) for people who have a certain... resilience, and drive, to succeed here. If that's you, by all means, apply and get the most out of what Cornell has to offer. But please don't f* up the curve :-)

I actually chose to stay here for my M.Eng for another semester... to get a bit more time here and shift my career focus a bit. I got a job offer from every company I interviewed with (5/5), and I definitely feel really well prepared for the future!

The weather has an affect on moods here, people are distinctly happier and more agreeable when its warmer. Everyone here is very insecure, no one wants to just chill.

The food is wonderful but the housing is aweful. There aren't enough dorms for the student body and the lottery is terrible.

YAYYYY!!! UP Till Dawn is a fabulous organization that helps fundraise for St. Jude. Please join!

Up til Dawn is an awesome organization.

Up 'Til Dawn... I LOVE Cornell. It is the place to be and I wish I never had to leave.

cornell is the best school

I have enjoyed my first year at Cornell. I would recommend this school to any of my friends, but you have to be up for the extensive work load. Up 'Til Dawn was amazing.

Great school!

I am with Up 'Til Dawn:) Thank you !!

Say Anything is an awsome band. We should get them for Slope Day next year.

My sorority does a lot of work with St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital and when I got this invitation to do this, I was very excited because we truly want to do as much as we can to help the hospital out. Up 'Til Dawn is making it possible for me to help out St. Jude's Hospital outside of my sorority which is a very exciting opportunity that I would not pass up.

I'm doing this survey for the Cornell Up Til Dawn organization.

I'm doing this for Up 'Til Dawn, I'm glad you're doing a philanthropy thing but I wish it was for something other than a sorority, I hate the lip service they give towards philanthropy and community service.

Up 'Til Dawn needs money!!!!!

The balance between academics and social life is one that many students have a hard time finding. Classes are so demanding, often one requiring a full days work as if it is the only class you are taking. This make socializing nearly impossible, which may be why many people get depressed or attempt to fill their schedule with other "social" responsibilities within groups or activities. It is deffinetly hard, maybe impossible, to have a good social life and good academic standing...at least for students in the scienes.

Cornell is not a normal school. If you think you're a normal kid, with normal aspirations, don't come here. Cornell will test you to the brink of your academic strength. It sucks a lot of the time, and anyone would agree with that. The winter at Cornell is at times unbearable. But the nice weather,beautiful campus, and knowledgeable and intriguing professors more than make up for it. If you think you're up for a challenge, come to Cornell. If not, don't even try.

up 'til dawn.

I'm in a club called Up' til Dawn. We fundraise for St. Jude's Children's Hospital in Memphis, an awesome hospital that treats cancer patients for free!

Up 'Til Dawn is big on Cornell's campus

Up Til Dawn

The food is really good.

I met my best friends ever here! =)

Cornell is a school for people that like to work really hard. It is not a party school, it is not a school for hanging on the quad to throw the frisbee and talk about the good times. Cornell is a school where you go to work your ass off and move on from there. If you can't deal with stress and pain, do not consider being an engineer. Other majors might be OK, but engineering is a ticket to 4 years of pain.
