There are so many diverse classes that are just waiting to be taken including: PLPA 2010 Magical Mushrooms, Mischievous Molds, HADM 4430 Introduction to Wines (must be 21 or older to take), and HD 3620 Human Bonding (for those trying to figure out the opposite sex). There are a lot of opportunities to learn whatever you want, you just have to find the right people.

    Great school academically with a beautiful campus and great opportunities, but it is EXTREMELY cold. Visited in September and it was already freezing.

    Cornell's campus is second to none. The natural beauty, gorges, waterfalls, mountains, are breathtaking at every time of year. Study in comfortable, modern tech buildings or cozy, gothic art buildings.

    I went to the summer school program for hospitality management, and it was amazing! I've been to so many summer programs before but this one was the most rigorous and meaningful time of my life! Now Cornell is my dream school, and I'm hoping my effort would be worth it! I'm applying next year :)

    Cornell's campus is gorgeous. Here you will work harder than you have ever had before; but if you can manage your time, you will also be able to play harder. It is the type of place that once you've gone there you will forever be a part of the Big Red Family.
