Cornell Class of 2012 Admit Rate

Being an alumnus from Cornell University and also from Cornell Alumni Admission Ambassador Network (CAAAN), I should be sharing insights on Cornell Admission too.

These details are taken from Cornell Admission Office page.

-----
Early Decision - 1105/3094 = 37.0%
Regular Decision - 5689/29979 = 19.0%
Freshman Decision (Overall) - 6794/33073 = 20.5%
Transfer Application - 801/2918 = 27.4%

CC's Note: Apply Early Decision to significantly enhance your chances of getting into Cornell!

Top 10% in high school - 2644/6121 = 43.2%
Next 10% in high school - 142/1078 = 13.2%
20% to 40% in high school - 37/587 = 6.3%
Last 60% in high school - 16/204 = 7.8%

CC's Note: If you are in the top 10% in your high school, you have very high chance of being admitted to Cornell University
