Cornell University (2025-2026)

[lilac lava]

yea columbia is upping class by like 20% so maybe cornell is too

[pearl river]

nah

[desert thorn]

dw king i got a school due in 3 hours and i haven't done 1200 words worth of supps

[glacial swift]

No

[pearl river]

but the ed rates are inflated because of athletes

[glacial swift]

They took much bigger 2029

If 2030 is bigger I’ll shoot them

They don’t have more housing for more spots

But cornell can be dumb sometimes

[pearl river]

yall gotta remember the ivy league is literally just an athletic conference so they want D1 athletes

[ionic minnow]

???

[ionic minnow]

d1 doesnt mean ur the best like Brown and even Cornell standards are so buns compared to d1 programs

[lilac lava]

yo u got that, its only like 3 words per minute

[glacial swift]

Depends on sport

Cornell is extremely good at some sports

Arguably by far the best ivy for hockey

And we suck at others like football

[lilac lava]

oh so they might be conservative this year

[ionic minnow]

?????

[glacial swift]

Can’t rly speculate but you’ll see soon

[pearl river]

theyre doing that by basically cutting international acceptances

[glacial swift]

Underestimated yield and freshman lowkey had a housing crisis this year

It worked out eventually but

They also assumed international visas would be expired

Which they weren’t

[ionic minnow]

Wait so like, yield rate was bad as in too many accepted or like, too many didnt accept

[glacial swift]

Too many accepted

[ionic minnow]

FUCK

Nmv

I heard someone sai it was the other way around wtf

Uh so basically that means theyll take less EDs

?

[glacial swift]

Don’t speculate

I’m just saying don’t assume admissions will be easier lmao

But yeah no they had more quad dorms this year

Should be slightly better bc one of the dorms was still under renovation and it’ll be open next year

[ocean beacon]

last year 33 ppl applied ed at my school this year its 23

n 9 got in last year

if that info helps anyone whatsoever 😭

[pearl river]

holy

do you go to a feeder school

[worthy hazel]

My mom already began to read a hypothetical rejection letter atp to get me used to it

[ocean beacon]

idk if u would call it that

[ionic minnow]

I js play rejection simulator everyday

[ocean beacon]

but its just competitive and large

[pearl river]

idk what counts either im not from states

[worthy hazel]

Like omg just gimme the letter and lemme ed2 alr

[ocean beacon]

lots of ppl end up in states schools and stuff

i got to a public school

[tranquil belfry]

yes

i did also could he dm me

[glacial swift]

Ahh gl

Feel free to ever ask questions (junior there) but u got it

[tranquil belfry]

mine was 200 apps and 38 acceptances😃

[ocean beacon]

200 ppl ed'ed????

thats crazy

[tranquil belfry]

rip i was wondering if anyone in my admissions cycle

[mild flume]

speaking of the housing situation how common are singles dorms if you select only singles and doubles

[tranquil belfry]

overall

idk ed numbers

[ocean beacon]

oh i see

[mild flume]

i think i’m the only person eding to cornell from my school

[ocean beacon]

idk overall but lemme check

[tranquil belfry]

how does dorming work w consideration to medical conditions if ur aware

[glacial swift]

Very good

If u have doctors note

[glacial swift]

Solid shot I wouldn’t say much better or worse than other unis

Easier if you’re doing a program house or have medical reason obv

[mild flume]

does tourette’s count as a medical reason since i’m worried about bothering my roommates?

[tranquil belfry]

last year

[glacial swift]

Yeah

How is your condition when it comes to classes?

Not that it matters but

[tranquil belfry]

similar question i was recently diagnosed w sleep apnea so does that count as a medical reason also?

[ocean beacon]

damn thats crazy

[mild flume]

tourette’s can be suppressed

[ocean beacon]

only 106 ppl applied

[mild flume]

think of it like manually breathing

[glacial swift]

Ah gotcha

Ik some profs r annoying abt people making noises

Not that it’s your fault

[ocean beacon]

n 11 got in 😭

[glacial swift]

But old profs don’t really care why lmao

[mild flume]

but it’s absolutely miserable if you suppress it all day

[glacial swift]

Almost like lip reading id imagine for deaf people

[tranquil belfry]

that sounds rough ngl

[ocean beacon]

so ialmost all of the acceptances were through ed

[glacial swift]

Yeah should def work for any college housing

[mild flume]

okay thanks

[patent egret]

to cornell???? just cornell???

[glacial swift]

Talk to SDS asap whenever u commit

[tranquil belfry]

yea

[patent egret]

how big is ur graduating class bro

[tranquil belfry]

uh last year like 680 or so

[glacial swift]

Try to get testing accommodations too

[tranquil belfry]

this year 620

[unique holly]

wait what platform is this

[tranquil belfry]

naviance

[unique holly]

wow wait how do i see that

[tranquil belfry]

scroll to the bottom of the admissions page on ur schools naviance

its self reported so the accept/commit numbers are lower then actual

[mild flume]

my school doesn’t have naviance so i’m winging it

[tranquil belfry]

speaking of if i have a 504 and disability stuff do i need to re-apply etc?

[glacial swift]

I’m not an expert but like 99% sure yes

[tranquil belfry]

alt thx

[glacial swift]

You need to talk to SDS for your uni

Send them all the paperwork

[patent egret]

34 apps 7 acceptances last year 😨

[glacial swift]

And set up accommodations

And they’ll deal with profs

U just gotta do it one time I think

[unique holly]

yeah im cooked

just slime me 😭

[frozen cape]

HELP?

😭

[unique holly]

wait im like loling right now this is crazy

this whole record is just fried 😭

[mild flume]

[unique holly]

[unique holly]

[glacial swift]

[unique holly]

[warm elm]

Wait can u give step by step on how to find the in naviance

[frozen cape]

everybody saying they're fried when this what my school lineup looking like

[unique holly]

go to college lookup and there should be a tab that says admissions after you look it up

[glacial swift]

Honestly always so grateful I went to big hs

[loud topaz]

Where can I find application history on naviance

[glacial swift]

Adjustment to college was rly easy

[loud topaz]

Ohh ok

[ocean beacon]

ok tbf 600-900 is pretty normal for a US public school

[tranquil belfry]

naviance-> college searcg -> admissions -> scroll down

[unique holly]

yeah i'd say so

i live in a suburb so it def is a bit smaller

[glacial swift]

I was a suburb too

Lmao

[unique holly]

dam

did ur whole suburb go to one school

[tranquil belfry]

are you LI perchance

[ocean beacon]

im in a suburb

[glacial swift]

5 of them

[loud topaz]

Wtf

[glacial swift]

Illinois

It’s like 5 suburbs to this massive high school

[ocean beacon]

yeah our town has one high school

[mild flume]

yeah we have a class of 650

[tranquil belfry]

mines 8 elementary -> 2 Middle -> 1 hs

[unique holly]

omg i used to live in chicago

[glacial swift]

Best city

[tardy yarrow]

wow are you kidding me its on the 18th

[tranquil belfry]

my sr class is considered small (626)

[glacial swift]

I’ll be back on Sunday can’t wait

[tardy yarrow]

im actually gonna crash out

✌️

[glad swift]

wait srry I'm so slow where are these charts coming from 😭

[unique holly]

chat is it possible to get stuck with a 4 year commitment to a comms degree

[ocean beacon]

naviance

[unique holly]

some kid at my school ed'd nu and somehow he's stuck with a comms degree for 4 years

[ocean beacon]

my school uses scoir

its like rlly similar

[glad swift]

thx 🙏

wait what is that

[tranquil belfry]

he should be able to swap after like sem1

[glacial swift]

Cornell doesn’t rly lock you in

[tranquil belfry]

as long as he takes the right classes

[unique holly]

that's what im saying but he's like convinced he can't switch out

[glacial swift]

Unless u apply to a school with only one major like hotel or ilr

[ocean beacon]

it schould be set up by ur school

[unique holly]

maybe it's something to do with his scholarship

[glacial swift]

Then u gotta wait a year to transfer to a diff college at cornell

[tranquil belfry]

its a hs / college planning thing

used for sending rec letters n studf

[unique holly]

wait yea if u dont know what it is by senior year ur school probably doesn't use it

[ocean beacon]

like all the data is crowdsourced from students so tbh its not super accurate

[glad swift]

yeah probably not

[tranquil belfry]

im doing hotel but my dads in the finance industry and the hotel school is a cheat code for investment banking

[glacial swift]

Yeah

[tranquil belfry]

he knows / hires so many people from there

[glacial swift]

Prob like 90 kids in my year placed for IB including myself

Rest doing consulting or real estate

[tranquil belfry]

dyl isabella suffrendini (graduated last year)

[glad swift]

wow that sounds so sad 😢

[glacial swift]

Maybe like 15-20 a year do ops but usually smth cool with ops

She’s rly sweet

Yeah big Hotelie name

Sellout tho

Funny asf

[tranquil belfry]

she gave me my tour last year and i name dropped her in my essay for nolan lol

[tranquil belfry]

fr why

[peak socket]

my class is like 90. hello 😭

[glacial swift]

Hard to explain but basically dedicated entire life to helping old people

And now doing banking for senior housing

Which is just scamming them

[tranquil belfry]

oh yea then got ib

[glacial swift]

But I liked her a lot

[tranquil belfry]

yea

[tranquil belfry]

dude more kids in my school go to ohio state then graduate from ur class 😭

[glacial swift]

But yeah no Nolan places scarily well

I didn’t realize that coming in

[peak socket]

😭😭

[glacial swift]

That’s why like EVERYONE in cas Econ tries to transfer to Nolan after fresh year lmao

[tranquil belfry]

i didnt either until i learned about the school then i see it legit everywhere

[glacial swift]

But I’ve enjoyed it so far

[tranquil belfry]

are u like freed up rn? could you look at my essays and tell me what u think?

[glacial swift]

I would but it’s only gonna make you tweak

You got it tho bae

[tranquil belfry]

oof

[glacial swift]

I will say with hotel one thing to keep in mind

We don’t do regular ivy day

At least not for last like 5+ years

[tranquil belfry]

i already eded so

[glacial swift]

If you get deferred

[tranquil belfry]

i hear back on thurs

[tranquil belfry]

oof wait

[glacial swift]

You’ll find out in February vs march

[tranquil belfry]

is it earlier

[glacial swift]

But don’t worry about that rn

Yeah

[tranquil belfry]

ok wait thats better

[glacial swift]

Hotel and ilr tend to do early acceptances

Smaller classes so they can

It’s kinda fucked bc ivy day is usually just for waitlists and rejections

Idk why they do it that way

[tranquil belfry]

they should also drop the ed earlier😋

riley why is dean walsh not emailing me ☹️

[glacial swift]

Lmao what did u email her about

[tranquil belfry]

she was emailing me last year and this summer but when i emailed to say i eded she didnt email me back

[glacial swift]

Oh you’re one of those

[tranquil belfry]

i met her at a buisness event in the city last year and she set up my tour and everything lol

[glacial swift]

She is rly busy this year bc it’s her last year of dean

So I wouldn’t take it too personally

[tranquil belfry]

she’s the reason i even got interested in the school ngl

[tranquil belfry]

ah yea u right

[peak socket]

does being a d5 golf player help with athlete scholarships

[glacial swift]

She also just might not respond to that

[tranquil belfry]

d5😭

[glacial swift]

For administrative reasons

[tranquil belfry]

yea thats what i was thinking

[glacial swift]

As long as good gpa + test scores + clear passion for industry/work experiences, you did all you could

[potent pond]

wait riley r u done

[peak socket]

istg if gloving was an ncaa sport i would instantly be in

[glacial swift]

And Thursday will be here soon

I have a 15 page paper left

But just gotta edit it

Hbu

[potent pond]

ew

oh

thats chill

[tranquil belfry]

gloving bros not locked in get sliding

[potent pond]

girl i had to BUILD A LAMP

[glacial swift]

Yeah I wrote it last week

[potent pond]

🖐️

[glacial swift]

Bc I knew I wouldn’t during finals

[tranquil belfry]

riley what are the classes / miderms / finals like for hotel school?

[glacial swift]

That’s my doctor

[potent pond]

so smart

i wish

[glacial swift]

Like curriculum?

That’s kinda vague

[tranquil belfry]

also do you get fun classes like biz calc n stuff

[glacial swift]

I’ve taken these so far

[tranquil belfry]

when i look up courses i see a lot of stuff like cooking classes to like prof roberts hotel ops kinda thing. am i looking at like econ course type things like macro/micro or is there any class i can compare it to?

[glacial swift]

Some were ap credits

Like micro macro psych

[glacial swift]

It’s almost entirely business courses

[peak socket]

how was geocaching???

[glacial swift]

Only hospitality ones are hotel ops, food & bev (freshman core), establishment (running restaurant), and dev (real estate and utilities stuff)

[ocean beacon]

wonder women tell me more

[glacial swift]

You can concentrate in F&B if you want tho

Tons of cool classes there

I’m doing analytics specialization

Most of my friends are doing finance

[tranquil belfry]

how was hadm1350 and hadm 4050 those are the courses i was mowt interested in

[glacial swift]

So chill

Few Saturday hikes basically

[glacial swift]

Taking 4050 rn

Very technical class basically just making bunch of models but very cool

[peak socket]

group hikes?

[tranquil belfry]

nice

[potent pond]

goddamn why does this look insnae

[glacial swift]

Just turned in my VBA final yesterday

[glacial swift]

Like geocaching with group of 20ish people

[peak socket]

that’s like 15 too much

[glacial swift]

UNIWYL is learn where u live

[peak socket]

[glacial swift]

For freshmen

U get free food and yap about stuff for a credit

We had diff speakers every week and macarons so I enjoyed

Martha came one time I miss her

[tranquil belfry]

what aps get credit for nolan? ive taken / taking a bunch

AP Physics C Mech and E
Ap Calc BC
Ap macro
Ap comp gov
Ap stat
Apush
Ap precalc
Ap phys1
Ap euro
and prob a few others im forgettinf

[glacial swift]

You get 15 credits max for cornell

Assuming 5’s on these, it’ll all go to electives

[tranquil belfry]

4 on csa and 4 on euro 5 on all others

[glacial swift]

And you’ll still have to do FWS bc no lang or lit

Yeah I’d just check general cornell transfer then

[tranquil belfry]

alr

and DE classes?

[glacial swift]

I’m p sure it’s 15 credits max regardless

And we don’t rly take DE

[tranquil belfry]

alr

[patent egret]

do any of u know on a scale of 1-10 how evil architecture is…

[glacial swift]

bc syllabus has to match 95%

[tranquil belfry]

oof i was gaslit

[patent egret]

i know its 5 years and difficult but like… define difficult…

[glacial swift]

Architecture is great u just don’t sleep

Some very good friends there

[tranquil belfry]

it was an ai class anyway lmao

[glacial swift]

Italy is fun

You just kind of die at studio and trauma bond

[patent egret]

any professor hate?

[glacial swift]

I don’t rly ask about them

[patent egret]

nice

[glacial swift]

Only bad thing is very PWI and rich kids

But to be expected

Arch kids tend to be some of the richest at cornell

[patent egret]

do you know if anyone minors in anything?

while doing arch

[glacial swift]

Yeah you def can

Minors are p easy to do

Esp in 5 years

[patent egret]

im interested in some of the history minors n looked at the courses n whatnot

[patent egret]

awesome

[tranquil belfry]

question on dorms again, randomly selected? apply for a certain dorm? major specific?

and are freshman required to live on campus / are there alternatives?

[glacial swift]

Not major

You’re living on campus fresh and soph year

Unless sorority/frat house soph year

Housing isp good overall

[tranquil belfry]

alr heat

[glacial swift]

U either rank program house or female or get randomly placed into dorm

Most juniors and seniors do apartments

[patent egret]

okay genuine question can you survive and have a good experience food wise from the first yr unlimited plan

[glacial swift]

Some stay on campus

[tranquil belfry]

i was told frat/sor are big for nolan is that true

[glacial swift]

I’m a picky eater but genuinely some of the best college food

[warm elm]

I cant see the table guys 😭😭

[glacial swift]

U can check out the menus at each dining hall online

[patent egret]

do you primarily use the swipes or the special money (forgot the name)

[glacial swift]

Not rn bc finals but

[glacial swift]

BRB’s

[tranquil belfry]

its based on self reports and administrator reports. if ur school doesnt report it then you cant see

[glacial swift]

I’m not on meal plan anymore

But usually BRB’s bc I was hardly ever on north

[glacial swift]

Rich kids so yeah

[warm elm]

I see but i can see the scattergram tho which is nkt looking good

[peak socket]

afaik freshman year you have to get the unlimited meal plan

[glacial swift]

But like not everyone by any means

[patent egret]

was meal plan food similarly enjoyable?

[glacial swift]

I wouldn’t say more or less than other schools

[glacial swift]

Yeah the hours were just rough for me

[warm elm]

Uhm uhm

[tranquil belfry]

theres a kid w a 83/100 gpa and a 950 sat in cornell on my naviance btw keep ur head up king

[glacial swift]

Also I don’t eat enough for it to be worth that much lmao

[peak socket]

😭

[glacial swift]

Meal swipe dining halls close at 8:30 pm

With limited food until 10:30, but again picky eater

[tranquil belfry]

how expensive is meal swipe? is it an unlimited plan or anthing?

[glacial swift]

And I was normally on central until like 1/2am everyday

So I used BRBs at other places

Freshman are unlimited plan

I think it’s like $20 a swipe assuming ur actually going 21 times a week

If u were to pay instead

[warm elm]

Yea lol 😢

[patent egret]

its ~10 a swipe assuming 21

[tranquil belfry]

thanks so much for answering all my questions riley ❤️ best luck on ur finals ill update u if i get in

[glacial swift]

I think i averaged 5 times a week

So it wasn’t worth for me

Ofccc

[patent egret]

gl on finals too 🙏

thank u for the help

[spiral jasper]

there was

[spiral jasper]

naviance is horrible

[mild flume]

hey another question, how much do AP scores mean in cornell admissions? i have all 5s so i was wondering if it could at least provide some extra context for me

my gpa isn’t like perfect but my standard test scores are pretty good imo

[loud topaz]

Get off my case madmoose

[wispy sluice]

Are our naviances the same

Like the average sat

Is it per school or overall

[warm elm]

It think per school

[sullen ibex]

wsg gang

@glacial swift yoyo

[potent pond]

They dont mean much for most unis

[sullen ibex]

i need recruiting help'

[potent pond]

Cuz its self report regardless

It shows rigor, but that is also seen in ur transcript

[wispy sluice]

This is ours

[sullen ibex]

dam

[tawny bramble]

omg yes please bro

[warm elm]

Damn

[tawny bramble]

yikes.

[wispy sluice]

literally everyone gets rejected from our school

[warm elm]

Whats the avg gpa + sat

[wispy sluice]

1521 and 4.81

[warm elm]

From my school the avg is based on 2 students coz those got in 😂

[wispy sluice]

Im above slightly at 1560 and 4.92

[warm elm]

Do u guys have inflated gpa like 4.8 what

[wispy sluice]

No

[warm elm]

Our valedictorian has 4.65

[wispy sluice]

It’s weighted

Bcs ours is out of 5.5

[sullen ibex]

how r ppl w 4.8s getting 1520 fr

out of 5.5 is crazy

[wispy sluice]

4.8 not hard ngl

no one has over 5.0 cuz health is a 5 credit regular class

[warm elm]

Oh u guys guve 1.5 extra

[wispy sluice]

yeah

[warm elm]

Ours is out of 5

[wispy sluice]

if u take the AP exam u get out of 5.5

if u don’t out of 5

and honors 5

regular 4

[sullen ibex]

intriguing

[warm elm]

Honors 4.5 ap 5 de 5

[loud solstice]

this is for us (nj public)

[unique holly]

wow i like the 1190 that applied

good for them

[sullen ibex]

whats the diamonds and circles and shi

[loud solstice]

wait better view

[loud solstice]

i think they mean like ED

[unique holly]

dammmm

[wispy sluice]

I’m in nj public too

[loud solstice]

oh wait dms

[loud solstice]

lowk hoping my ECs carry

[warm elm]

No one ed’ed from my school in the past years so ig its nkt there haha

[warm elm]

Whats ur best ec

[mild flume]

aw hell

[loud solstice]

research 💔 im an isef kid

[potent pond]

its more of a reference of what type of credit you have (somewhat reflective of how prepped u are for ur major) but again many schools dont offer certain APs or dont have access to them or its simply self report so many may not report a course they took

so its not a strong frame of ref

[mild flume]

that’s fair enough

[sullen ibex]

isefs pretty good

[potent pond]

lol i got rejected from isef

[warm elm]

Yea..

[mild flume]

so if i got a b in my lang class and a 5 on the lang exam they really just don’t care

[wispy sluice]

Are there actual quality differences between a private school like cas and a public funded school like dyson

[potent pond]

no

its the same thing

[wispy sluice]

suny dyson

😂

[potent pond]

if there are differences its not bc of state funded or private

itd be bc of other essences of the college

[wispy sluice]

what’s the hardest college to get into

[sullen ibex]

its dyson, cas, coe in that order

[potent pond]

unfort; but ig if they look really holistically it can make up a lil for the B but they aint recalculating with an A for ur gpa bc u got a 5 yk

cas and coe have same AR but yeah

[wispy sluice]

what majors does dyson have

cuz im lowk stupid

[sullen ibex]

yea maybe differs by like a minute percentage

[potent pond]

theres only one

[sullen ibex]

its just business

[potent pond]

its just AEM

[sullen ibex]

dyson is business school

[potent pond]

applied econ and management

yeah

which is essentially biz

[wispy sluice]

i mean like where do u find buisness and finance

those majors

[potent pond]

Econ CAS

Nolan (hotel)

[wispy sluice]

ah

[potent pond]

Dyson (AEM)

[sullen ibex]

thaats in dyson

[potent pond]

theres also business minors that anyone can take

[sullen ibex]

theyre concentrations within dyson

[wispy sluice]

no but like

[sullen ibex]

if u want like business admin, or like finance

[wispy sluice]

if u want a finance degree right

[sullen ibex]

or like business analtyics

yea thats dyson

[wispy sluice]

a bachelors

[potent pond]

nolan and dyson/econ focus on different essences of finance

[sullen ibex]

its a concentration

[potent pond]

id say dyson and econ have most overlap

[wispy sluice]

is there also a finance in cas?

[potent pond]

dyson and hotel have diff goals

[wispy sluice]

or is it just duson

dyson

[sullen ibex]

no finance in cas

[potent pond]

Econ

in CAS

[sullen ibex]

im cas econ

[potent pond]

bro 😭

[sullen ibex]

i disagree ab the overlap

[wispy sluice]

ah

[sullen ibex]

the only overlaps are like the very intro coursse

[potent pond]

everyone ik who dont get dyson cope with econ cas lol

[sullen ibex]

after that the curses r very dif

[sullen ibex]

yea cuz like what else can they do lol

[potent pond]

uh

biz minor

[wispy sluice]

and dyson is like “a part” of Johnson?

[potent pond]

yeah

johnson is dyson and nolan iirc

[wispy sluice]

ah gotcha

[potent pond]

but its within CALS or smth

it a headache

😭

to think abt

[wispy sluice]

see here in hs

we have

[potent pond]

at least for me

[wispy sluice]

college of highschool

and we all go to it

[potent pond]

after admissions and if u so choose internal transfer, it rlly dont matter

[wispy sluice]

does admissions let you see ur file once ur there

[potent pond]

u can partake in most anything regardless of college

[wispy sluice]

cuz i heard some ppl look at it

[potent pond]

it just decides ur coursework and tuition cost

[wispy sluice]

is tuition the same for a single and double major

[potent pond]

maybe idk much abt dyson tho

yeah

cornell is hard set tuition cost

[wispy sluice]

and minoring can be in any school right

[potent pond]

[wispy sluice]

what are like the highest paying jobs for students

at cornell

[sullen ibex]

they all pay pretty low lol

[potent pond]

i dont think 16.25 and 16.75 are low

[spiral jasper]

it is, but it's really innacurate

[sullen ibex]

u want a high paying job go do a remote internship or osmthing lol

[potent pond]

but if u do

[wispy sluice]

would u recommend a outside job instead

[potent pond]

😭

[potent pond]

i like the convenience of campus jobs

[loud solstice]

how easy are the clubs to join? do i have to apply or something and is it competitive

[potent pond]

its nearby and they accomodate ur classes

[potent pond]

what kind of club

[sullen ibex]

idk gang minimum wage in the bay area is like 18.5 now lol

[wispy sluice]

im trying to join cuems first sem

cuz im als cert so it should be fun

[loud topaz]

lowk ny state minimum wage is already really high as it is

[potent pond]

i was rejected 4 times certed

theyre cliquey

[sullen ibex]

tuff

[wispy sluice]

als or bls?

[sullen ibex]

all the clubs r cliquey

[potent pond]

it dont matter

they lowk prefer non cert

😭

[wispy sluice]

wtf

that’s kinda wack

[potent pond]

i work lifeguard and get paid 17.80

[loud solstice]

i lowk dont know exactly but like usually schools have an ai/data sci club that i want to join? smth like that

or some linguistics clubs

[sullen ibex]

oh shit did u ever do pool for cuauv?

[potent pond]

i guess Resident Assistant and Research Assistant are prolly the highest paid
the first bc of all the perks
the second bc ur prof decides ur pay and hours

[sullen ibex]

oh shit yea

[potent pond]

ik ppl making 18.50 for research

[sullen ibex]

ra is fire job

[loud solstice]

oh yessss research 🤑

[wispy sluice]

flexible hours?

[sullen ibex]

my friend logs max hours for ta each week so he gets paid a lot

lol

[loud solstice]

i will be locking in on that

[potent pond]

anything that isnt like project team or a biz club is easy to join

[sullen ibex]

he bareyl does anything

[potent pond]

we pick our hours

[wispy sluice]

and how old do u have to be to be a ra

[sullen ibex]

as long as ur past ur first yr

u can be an ra

[potent pond]

if ur premed ik many ppl pick up jobs at the nearby hospital but its annoying if u dont bring a car

[wispy sluice]

parking free?

[potent pond]

most jobs off campus annoying if u dont bring a car

[potent pond]

on campus ?? no

[wispy sluice]

bro

what the fuck

[potent pond]

cuz u dont need a car

u want a car

theres cheaper ways to park like a friend in a frat or just park far away on the ithaca street parking

[wispy sluice]

i drive a mustang so i can only imagine how fun it’s gonna be to drive it there

😂

[potent pond]

ive seen

like

4 totaled cars in the past week

because of the weather

😂

[wispy sluice]

mad snow

yeah

[loud solstice]

i drive an old subaru outback that refuses to start when it's too cold ngl

i keep one of those jumpstarter batteries in the back just in case

[potent pond]

my car did this last year

so i left it home

i needed a jumpstart

[loud solstice]

my car does this every other week bro 😭

[potent pond]

i just carry a portable with me now

[loud solstice]

yeah

[lilac lava]

Does Cornell acc have a preference for NY kids or is it js that a lot ofNY kids apply+ ED (compared to other states)

[potent pond]

cuz my cars a hybrid so it dont need much

[loud solstice]

ohh

[potent pond]

its that the state funded ones have a quota

[lilac lava]

Oh so Dyson has to hit x% in state

[potent pond]

so im assuming that leads to many many NY applicants

also theres the correlation with legacy staying instate

like graduates living in NY

and having kids

that apply to cornell

[wispy sluice]

also wanted to ask is cuems just like a drunk person transport car

[potent pond]

cuems doesnt transport

so no

but yeah a lot the cases r drunk

[wispy sluice]

what

[lilac lava]

Ohh ok

[potent pond]

or drunk injury

[lilac lava]

Thanks a lot

[wispy sluice]

r they certified to do like ivs and stuff

[potent pond]

its just an emergency response flycar that gets to scene before the bus

[potent pond]

thats ALS

[wispy sluice]

or is it just kids with first aid kits

[potent pond]

so no

[wispy sluice]

yeah im a emt so they let me do it which is why i asked

what even is bls atp

lmao

[potent pond]

cuems is purely bls

and doesnt transport

but their response time is 2min

bc they dont transport

[wispy sluice]

so just a party car with sirens and a couple bandaids?

[potent pond]

they have a solid reason for not transporrting

if it doesnt align with ur desires dont apply

[loud topaz]

was driving around hunter a week back and i saw 3 cars that completely went off the road in less than an hour. some guy slid off the road down the hill into some guy's farm

[wispy sluice]

what’s the reason they have for not transporting bcs schools like hopkins have the transport equipped cars

[potent pond]

i have friends on it so im not gonna degrade it like that their job is still valuable

[wispy sluice]

no ofc it’s valuable

[potent pond]

there is a SINGULAR ambulance agency that services the local like 5 counties/towns

cuems prevents the ppl from dying before the ambulance gets there

2min response time is insane

[wispy sluice]

have their actually been like

[potent pond]

and something to definitely flex

[wispy sluice]

heartsaver type emergencies

[potent pond]

idk im not on cuems 😭

when i shadowed the ambulance agency, hell yeah

[wispy sluice]

but id assume cornell would communicate w/ students about like major things like that

[potent pond]

ambulance agency requires u to be 20 to apply

before u ask

lol

[potent pond]

hipaa 101

[wispy sluice]

no like

[potent pond]

there was a class freshman fall my friend dropped his hydroflask (full) from the upper balcony seats onto someones head on the lower balcony

she survived

she wanted to stay

[wispy sluice]

wtf

[potent pond]

"ill miss the notes" she said

obviously she got forced out

obviously it was accidcental

[wispy sluice]

the emt service i worked for we have a huge cancer hospital in our jurisdiction so its unhinged at times

the chemo suite is insane

[potent pond]

regardless of how cool they are it is inherently not cool to walk arnd being like yeah we had this epic case where someone almost died the other day

lol

so maybe they have

but its likely something they celebrate internally

[wispy sluice]

r u gonna apply every sem

[potent pond]

not with the entire cornell

?

im not insane

lmao

[wispy sluice]

😂

any other cool clubs?

[potent pond]

many premes join some form of volunteering one

whether thats red cross, cancer society, united way, voices of equity, gift of life

whatever and so on

[wispy sluice]

makes sense

[potent pond]

theres also fun ones like top gun laparoscopic, surgeon club

[wispy sluice]

would you say you get enough times to balance school w/ clubs and social life

[potent pond]

yeah but im not someone who spends 10 hours studying subjects weekly

[wispy sluice]

ik it partially depends on ur major but

[potent pond]

ik some ppl dying

some ppl absolutely thriving

most in between

in between as in like, has their fun but knows when to lock in

e.g. when they have exams

[wispy sluice]

nice nice

[potent pond]

im double majoring and minoring as premed so im essentially triple majoring

i have 2 labs

and the lifeguard job

[wispy sluice]

that sounds awful

[potent pond]

its not that bad

[wispy sluice]

what

[potent pond]

im eboard in 4 clubs?

[wispy sluice]

what majors r u taking

[potent pond]

i think

and a projet tema

[potent pond]

cognitive science and info sci

with concentration in UX

[wispy sluice]

[potent pond]

minor in psych im still on the fence on, its more of if i complete it than an actual desire toc omplete yk

[wispy sluice]

i just gotta thug out 4 years to go to law school lmfao

psych is so fun

i loved the AP class at least

[potent pond]

i do love psych

[quick sky]

are yall using all 650 words for the why CAS essay?
mine is around 650, idk if i should cut
im worried it might bore the AOs

[potent pond]

i didnt have a psych/cog sci specific course this sem

but next sem hoepfully

[potent pond]

most ppl use until the limit for like all essaysa

[wispy sluice]

what’s a usual amount of classes a sem

[potent pond]

600-650 is respectable

[wispy sluice]

for a freshman

[potent pond]

under that, theres questions of whether u fully answered it

cuz they give u the number for a reason yk

[sullen ibex]

15s pretty normal all around

[potent pond]

avg classes for any student is 15

cfredits

which is 5 classes

maybe 4

minimum credits u need is 12, max is roughly 18-20 depending on ur college

[wispy sluice]

lab sciences worth an extra credit id assume

[potent pond]

each class is 3-4 credits

[sullen ibex]

my colleges max is 22 lol

[potent pond]

the credit count is roughly based on how many times it meets

[sullen ibex]

my friends taking 26 technically 💀

[potent pond]

im in ur college

LOL

[sullen ibex]

23 (petitioned) + 3 for proj team

lol

[potent pond]

wtf they accepted a petition

[quick sky]

you at cornell right?

[potent pond]

how

whatd he say

ive been desperately wanting

[sullen ibex]

no clue

[potent pond]

yeah CAS

[sullen ibex]

but they got it through

[potent pond]

please share the tech 😭

[quick sky]

can you read my supps 🥺

[potent pond]

ive heard they never accept

[sullen ibex]

idk 🥀

[potent pond]

unless u a senior

[potent pond]

u can send but im kind of still locked in rn

[wispy sluice]

how many more finals u got

[sullen ibex]

jae y u gotat go over the limit tho

surely theres no reaosn to be taking that ma ycredits

[potent pond]

like 0 but i have a second attempt on phjysics i wanna use and i have to finish a writeup and data collection for my lab

and i have a project to submit tmr

[potent pond]

to raise my gpa

just the space to take like my labs for more

[sullen ibex]

mmm that makes sense actually

but alos

how do u know ur classe will raise gpa

[potent pond]

ig ive never tried to petition

[potent pond]

? i said lab

also ive taken max every sem lol

[sullen ibex]

is lab a free a?

[potent pond]

yeah

[sullen ibex]

damn

i always drop my lowest prelim at teh start lol

ive always been around the 15 credit mark

[potent pond]

ive taken max every sem and at least 1 class every winter and summer so far

including this upcoming winter

[sullen ibex]

but my gpa has bene high as a result

[potent pond]

i would embrace doing more than 22

😭

[sullen ibex]

😭 gang

wheres the wlb

id be so overwhelmed lmao

[potent pond]

in hs

we have like up to 6 "major" courses and 2 "minor" (major and minor in terms of how many times it meets)

so like 6 is core and 2 is like extra like music or some shit

one year i was like

let me try 5

instead of 6

[sullen ibex]

yea but high school is also dif workload

[potent pond]

i tweaked out and my grades dropped bc of how locked out i was

[sullen ibex]

each of my classses here take a lot of time

[potent pond]

so i added the sixth back

[sullen ibex]

damn lol

[potent pond]

my HS was prob 10x my workload here

but again i dont study without assignments

ik lots do

[sullen ibex]

crazy work

[potent pond]

and its the way ur supposed to do college

im just stupid

and lazy

mostly lazy

[sullen ibex]

mm yea i been feeling unmotivated recently lol

[loud topaz]

lowk sorry this is off topic but if my idoc was only received a week after fin aid deadline will i not get my aid package with my letter

[potent pond]

lol ik riley sent her courses taken list this is mine

[loud topaz]

if i were to be accepted #inshallah

[potent pond]

i took less than her tho i think idk hers looked insanely locked

[sullen ibex]

ur hella organized

[potent pond]

gotta be to complete my stuff 😭

its like remnants of organization whore from my internal transfer days

[lilac lava]

Do they let you know if fin aid was received

Cuz I submitted fafsa and css but no notification

[loud topaz]

i got an incomplete fin aid email in late november telling me that i had submitted my fafsa and css but they hadn't gotten my idoc

[lilac lava]

What’s idoc 😭

[loud topaz]

if they haven't emailed you about fin aid then i wouldn't worry tbh

the collegeboard thing where you send them your tax documents

if you didn't get an email request it's no big deal i think since finaid is separate from admissions

[lilac lava]

Wait is idoc and css 2 different things

[loud topaz]

yea

[lilac lava]

Yea I’m not worried abt like astrology or anything I think I screwed up fin aid

[lilac lava]

Does ur financial aid to do list say anything

[loud topaz]

it's been blank for the past 2 months

[loud topaz]

if you did screw it up or didn't submit anything it'll be ok it's just that you won't get your fin aid package with your letter

[lilac lava]

Oh ok

Alright then it’s prolly fine

Thanks for your help

[severe mantle]

[sullen ibex]

[severe mantle]

[sullen ibex]

mm

vie had ppl ask for my reusme
