 " Great university. Classes can be difficult, but that is expected. The lecturers are knowledgeable and the courses push students to really understand the material. "

 " I had a fantastic time at Cornell, I made many lifelong friends and received an excellent education. I was a member of the student-run emergency medical services and dedicated the time I wasn't studying to running EMS shifts. This was a huge part of my time as a student, and I look back upon it very fondly. I also enjoyed the climbing community and all the outdoors activities that Ithaca and surrounds have to offer.

 " Overall, Cornell is an amazing school to go to. Great classes, great curriculum, great food and great people. I felt like there were so many communities and I never felt like I didn't fit in. It was the best college experience I could've asked for. The only thing is that their engineering school is very difficult so be prepared. "

 " Cornell is great! The campus is beautiful during the spring and the summer. However, it does get really cold in Ithaca during the winter so be sure to bring some warm clothes and stock up on some hot packets. "
