Hello, there. This is a semi-safety, though I'd consider it vs. UVA or Penn.

[confusedlaw]

Throwin my hat in here as its my first choice and I have an ok chance getting, one below last median at gpa median, would early action be a bad idea because I heard if you don't get in you gert deferred till after the class fills up pretty much

[chem]

Going to apply as a target

Going to answer 17 on the application with

[Real Madrid]

Will also be applying.

[emkay625]

Checking in.

[hjf411]

Count me in.

[Trequartista]

One of my top choices.

[Bildungsroman]

First, good luck!

Here's the sum total of advice I have for Cornell's application (as someone starting there in a couple weeks): APPLY EARLY. Do their non-binding Early Action and you'll probably get a decision in December; refuse, and you may be looking at April.

[Hopefully2012]

Crossing my fingers for this one.

[Perdevise]

Does anyone else think living in Ithaca would be nice?

[dakure]

Checking in. Also want to point out that the picture you're using is horrendously misleading.

[aerogear]

EA checking in.

Nooooooooooooooooooo.

[fltanglab]

Does anyone else think living in Ithaca would be nice?

Potentially, yes. But I guess that's what the visit is for.

LoL, I like snowy winters, and the hiking and bike riding sounds really nice, and I think a small college town could be a good break (my UG was in an urban area). I like the sound of Cornell's labor clinic, too.

I think Ithaca might be nice, especially as a respite for anyone pursuing NYC big law.

If I wasn't a k-JD coming straight from Penn State, I'd be much more eager to go to Cornell. It's not the cold that I worry about, it's the "nice college town in the middle of bumfuck nowhere." Same issue I have with UVA. I'm ready for a city.

This is relevant to my interests.

My top choice.

Call me crazy but I think so. This is probably because I love snow and ridiculously cold weather.

I keep telling myself I want a big city (I also went to UG in a small city of ~100k), but I think it'll be easier to remain more disciplined with regards to studying if there aren't all of the distractions of a New York, DC, LA or Chicago. So that would be a plus for me.

[franklyscarlet]

Relevant. Let the cycle begin!

[sanetruth]

In on this.

[Errzii]

hoping for a splitter friendly cycle, would love to be here next fall.
oh, and +1 to EA, I can't really think of a reason not to?
