Idk about this new batch, but those of us in the first batch were almost all over both 75ths. A couple pages back, Lavitz said that Cornelll does this to YP.

Do most people actually travel to Ithaca to interview? I am just curious if opting to do my interview via Skype will be a big deal, as I live in Arizona.

I was told by Cornell via phone (when I called to schedule the interview) that the vast majority of folks are choosing Skype.

Visiting is always a better choice because you get to actually meet the interviewer in person and create a more direct bond. You also get to see the University. But I don't think it really matters in terms of admissions. At the end of the day Cornell is a nationally recognized University attracting students from all over the USA, they are not going to reject someone just because he lives far.

For those who just got interview requests, relax. It is low stress and very pleasant.
