Premeds are generally assholes. They're the ones who walk out of tests and pull it apart, I hate being around them - they look down on everyone else. And you know they're only in medicine to earn a ton of money, they don't care about people. Greek life is too big here, and you can tell which girls are in sororities. Frats can vary, there are some decent frats and there are definitely decent people in frats or sororities. But "sorostitute" fits a LOT of the girls here. Hotelie girls are almost always sorostitutes, and very easy to tell apart from normal people. Hotelie guys are generally OK, though.
They are depressed and have ugly girls.
That we are really stressed, that we are the easiest Ivy to get into, that a C can be considered a good (meidan) grade here but thats depressing for a lot of people who are used to A's all the time, that we party really hard
We are all depressed smart kids.
Students work too hard. They are very driven and over achievers. There is too much pressure at Cornell.
We are suicidal nerds.
All the social students at Cornell are in the Greek system. But hey, it's the truth. Also, Cornell girls are unattractive and work too hard. Also true.
Cornell students are rich elitists.
They are nerds and don't go out and have fun.
study hard, party hard; we have a high suicide rate
Work hard, play hard. That we are waaaay burnt out from high school. That we couldnt get into any other ivy, so we came here. That some of us have no lives in order to be crazy premed.
Bitter rejects from harvard
Snobs, bad professors, rich Jewish population
They are smart and nerdy and antisocial
engi-nerds, hotelies have no work, there are too many crazy pre-meds very preppy ivy league assholes
Preppy, competitive, tools
Hotelies don't study. Architects are never seen on campus. Almost every Asian guy you'll meet is an engineer.
Cornell's sterotype is that it is the easiest ivy league school to get into but the harderst to get through.
That we don't have any parties, that there is a large Asian population, there are a lot of ugly girls at Cornell, we're always doing work and studying, it is the easiest Ivy to get in and the hardest to stay in, there are a lot of new york (especially long island) kids, large Jewish population
smart, diverse
High stress, cutthroat, work hard party hard, not as pretty girls.
all alcoholics, snobby, rich, really smart
Hard Partiers High Suicide Rate Ugly All the engineers/architects do is work Really Jewish
People are stuck-up, super smart, care a lot about status and don't know how to have fun.
rich, snobby, ugly, HARD, cut throat, amazing, beautiful
waelthy, white, preppy, smart, fratty
Stuck up, smart, sheltered, rich, weird
Nerdy, Jappy, Asian

Stereotypes: Cornell students are nerdy, not very attractive, spend a lot of time working and in the library. There are a lot of Asians. They have a bad sense of style.
really competitive, suicidal, work hard play hard, Long Island
Typical Ivy League stereotypes - rich, self-interested, stuck-up
I think one of the biggest stereotypes is that everyone at Cornell comes from New York (especially Long Island). Also, people tend to peg us as the "dumb Ivy".
We are a party school because of the predominant Greek life present on campus, we have a high suicide rate, we are the "easiest Ivy to get into, the hardest one to get out of"/
Some stereotypes are engineers are super intelligent and dedicated to their work and also are very nerdy. Cornell has a large Asian population. Most students went to Cornell because they did not get accepted to the other Ivies. It rains every day in Ithaca. Cornell has no pretty girls. The life of a Cornellian is having their heads stuck in books studying all day.
smart, nerdy, don't really go out or have fun, awkward kids
There's the common quote "Easy to get in, hard to get out." That is it's the "safety" for a lot of students who apply to all of the other Ivy Leagues, but after being accepted it's the hardest to graduate from. Students aren't necessarily smart but hard working.
Study so much that they do not have any fun. Ithaca is a dark and gloomy city the entire year.
that we are all "dorky" and depressed and have no fun and just work all the time.
Some stereotypes about Cornell is that it is one of the easiest Ivy League schools to get in to. Yes, it is easy to get in to, but Cornell offers one of the most rigorous academics out of the Ivy League schools. Grades are NOT inflated here. You have to work hard to earn your grades. I'm sure people assume that, as an Ivy league school, the students are boring and just work in the library 24 hours/ 7 days a week. However, Cornellians work hard, but they also play hard to. The Greek Life is one of the biggest groups here.
We're always working, the weather sucks (Ithaca is COLLLLD)
really intense, cutthroat. lots of suicides..
They work so hard they throw themselves in the gorges, or they are so obsessed with grades they rip pages out of their classmates' textbooks.
All depressed, all wealthy, all from NY, all Jewish
We're all geniuses and we're all stuck up rich kids.
Pretentious, proactive, hardworking, work hard play hard, change the world
That the Cornell campus is full of bridges that Cornell students all use to kill themselves.
Nerdiness is a big perceived trait, I think - and it can be true. Everyone's a bit nerdy, but that doesn't mean anything negative here, I don't believe; it's just a part of a lot of people's personalities because it's a pretty intellectual setting. But most people you talk to have pretty diverse interests and a lot of great things to offer...there are bookish types but they tend to be incredibly motivated and the kind that will someday make millions from coding software. There's also a generalization that here, as at any private school (particularly Ivies), you'd have a lot of pretentious rich kids.
Engineers and architecture students have no life.
