Cornell vs Barnard

[tired tundra]

NYC crime isn't a think, don't worry about that

The two schools are REALLY different

[green bronze]

Nyc crime is like

Idk morningside heights is near harlem but odds of it affecting u r low unless u go into the deep city in the middle of the night alone

Which u probably have no business doing

To slap the lower name recognition of barnard in the face, you graduate with a columbia degree

You also take classes at columbia

CALS AR is high bc its publicly endowed but thats largely from instate

Define easy to major/minor

I assume youd be applying to major in CALS biological sciences and then concentrate in smth w more chem?

Also cornell has amazing psych if u want to apply a&s or humec instead!

Or you could just apply bio sci and concentrate in behavioral neurobio

Ithaca just means that most ppl u see will be cornellians or people who work on campus

Lots of bussing is necessary but its free firstyear and after firstyear youll figure out your own strategies

Theres ctown, a cvs a bus ride away, a target a bus ride away, a wegmand a bus ride away

Generally i assume its hard to be bored in college

Not only are you studying but parties and clubs

[wanton ivy]

i read a few months ago that you can pick a minor in any college so long as your major is still within your college,, not sure if thats still true tho

[wanton ivy]

i would but like,, CALS AR is 12.9% according to numbers from cornell website,, so i have a better chance at getting in there if i wanna get in at all

Yes that is true!

CALS admits by major so to change major youd have to apply but its likely more of a formality
