Non-degree applicants can learn more about requirements for admission on the <a href="https://sce.cornell.edu/" target="_blank">School of Continuing Education and Summer Sessions website</a>.</em></p> <h3>1. Choosing an Application Plan</h3> <p>You will first need to decide to apply for either <a href="https://admissions.cornell.edu/how-to-apply/first-year-applicants#early-or-regular" target="_blank">Early Decision or Regular Decision</a>. If Cornell is your first choice, consider applying under the Early Decision plan. Early Decision applications are reviewed in the fall, and you will be notified in mid-December of Cornell’s decision. Before applying Early Decision, know that:</p> <ul> <li>November 1 is the application deadline.</li> <li>Early Decision is binding. If you are admitted to Cornell, you are required to withdraw any applications you’ve sent to other schools and send your enrollment deposit to Cornell by early January.</li> <li>Admission decisions for Early Decision applicants include being offered admission, not being offered admission, or having your application postponed to Regular Decision. Students whose applications are postponed to Regular Decision are no longer subject to the Early Decision binding commitment.</li> <li>While Early Decision admission to Cornell is binding, students may request to be released from the Early Decision agreement if they have completed a financial aid application and their financial aid offer does not make a Cornell education affordable for their personal circumstances.</li> </ul> <p>Cornell University will honor any required commitment to matriculate, which has been made to another college under an Early Decision plan.</p> <p>Regular Decision applications are due January 2, and you will be notified by late March or early April of Cornell’s decision. Admission decisions for Regular Decision applicants include being offered admission, not being offered admission, or being offered a spot on the waitlist. Regular Decision is not binding and those offered admission will have until May 1 to notify Cornell about their decision to matriculate.</p> <h3>2. Choosing a College/School</h3> <p>You will apply to only one undergraduate college or school at Cornell. Explore each of our undergraduate colleges and schools before applying to determine which is the best fit for you:</p> <ul> <li><a href="preview_entity.php?catoid=60&ent_oid=14845">College of Agriculture and Life Sciences</a><span style="display: none !important"> </span> </li> <li><a href="preview_entity.php?catoid=60&ent_oid=14874">College of Architecture, Art, and Planning</a><span style="display: none !important"> </span> </li> <li><a href="preview_entity.php?catoid=60&ent_oid=14879">College of Arts and Sciences</a><span style="display: none !important"> </span> </li> <li><a href="preview_entity.php?catoid=60&ent_oid=15035">Cornell SC Johnson College of Business</a><span style="display: none !important"> </span> <ul> <li><a href="preview_entity.php?catoid=60&ent_oid=14966">Peter and Stephanie Nolan School of Hotel Administration</a><span style="display: none !important"> </span> </li> <li><a href="preview_entity.php?catoid=60&ent_oid=15039">Charles H.

Application</h3> <p>Cornell uses the <a href="https://www.commonapp.org/" target="_blank">Common App</a>, which must be completed and submitted online. Required application materials should be submitted through Common App.</p> <h3>4. Official Transcript(s)</h3> <p>We require you to submit your official secondary/high school transcript(s) as part of your application. Your high school should submit official high school transcript(s) via the Common App or through an eTranscript service<em>.</em></p> <h3>5. Standardized Test Scores</h3> <p>For students applying to enroll for fall 2025, Cornell will be score-free for applicants to the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences; the College of Architecture, Art, and Planning; the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business – Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management; and the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business – Peter and Stephanie Nolan School of Hotel Administration. For applicants to the College of Arts & Sciences; College of Engineering; College of Human Ecology; Cornell Jeb E. Brooks School of Public Policy; and the School of Industrial and Labor Relations, test scores are not required but are encouraged.</p> <p>Effective for students applying to enroll for fall 2026 or beyond, applicants to all Cornell undergraduate colleges and schools will be required to submit standardized test scores.</p> <p>Learn more about <a href="https://admissions.cornell.edu/policies/standardized-testing-policy" target="_blank">Cornell’s standardized testing policy</a>. </p> <h3>6. Supporting Application Materials</h3> <p>In addition to the application, Cornell requires the following materials:</p> <ul> <li><strong>The School Report</strong>: Your counselor or designated school official should submit this form (or your school’s own report form) and your official transcript on your behalf.</li> <li><strong>Counselor Recommendation</strong>: Cornell requires a written statement from your school counselor.</li> <li><strong>Teacher Recommendations</strong>: You are required to submit two teacher recommendations. Be sure to remind individuals writing letters for you to include your name and date of birth on all pages if they are sending them by mail.</li> <li><strong>Mid-Year Report</strong>: Submit the Mid-Year Report as soon after the application deadline as possible. We strongly encourage school counselors to submit this online, so we can process your application faster. We understand that some students with schools on trimesters may not have any new grade information to report at the time of submission and therefore do not need to send a Mid-Year Report.</li> </ul> <p>These forms can be found and submitted online at <a href="https://www.commonapp.org/" target="_blank">commonapp.org</a>, and materials must be submitted directly by the applicant’s school counselor and/or teachers to be considered official.</p> <p><em>For Early Decision applicants, the Early Decision Agreement is incorporated into Cornell University’s supplement on the Common App. Look for the checkbox under Cornell University>Application>Questions>General. Applicants do not need to submit a separate agreement from their counselor.</em></p> <h3>7. Cornell University Supplemental Information</h3> <p>In addition to the Common App Personal Essay, you will be required to respond to both the Cornell University Essay as well as the college- or school-specific essay question(s). These important Cornell-specific questions provide us with information that helps us match your intellectual goals to the Cornell college or school to which you’re applying.</p> <h3>8. Application Fee</h3> <p>Applications must be submitted with the $80 application fee or approved fee waiver* to be considered. Please note that Cornell cannot process your application without the application fee or a fee waiver.</p> <p>*Cornell will waive your application fee if it presents a hardship for you or your family. Please follow the Common App instructions to apply for a fee waiver. You may submit any of the following types of fee waivers:</p> <ul> <li>The Common App Fee Waiver, which is automatically applied for students who indicate that they meet the eligibility requirements;</li> <li>The <a href="https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/sat/registration/k12-educators/fee-waivers/college-application" target="_blank">College Board College Application Fee Waiver</a>, which is available to students who register for the SAT with a fee waiver; </li> <li>The <a href="https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/the-act/registration/fees/fee-waivers.html" target="_blank">ACT Application Fee Waiver</a>, which is available to students who register for the ACT with a fee waiver;</li> <li>The <a href="https://www.nacacnet.org/student/fee-waivers/" target="_blank">NACAC Request for Admission Application Fee Waiver Form</a>, completed by your school counselor;</li> <li>A letter from your school counselor or a representative from a social service/community agency, stating that the fee would cause financial hardship.</li> </ul> <p>If you cannot request a fee waiver by one of these methods, please contact the Undergraduate Admissions Office at <a href="mailto:admissions@cornell.edu">admissions@cornell.edu</a>.</p> <h3>9.

Admission Revocation</h3> <p>Cornell University reserves the right to revoke an offer of admission under certain circumstances, and at any time, including after a student is in attendance at the university.</p> <p>Authority to revoke admission rests with the admitting academic unit. Admission may be revoked for fraud, misrepresentation, material omission of fact, failure to meet a condition of admission (including but not limited to satisfactorily completing any schoolwork in progress at the time an offer of admission is extended and upholding high standards of character in all activities within and outside of the classroom), or any other pre-attendance misconduct. Academic and non-academic misconduct by an applicant occurring prior to the commencement of attendance is not subject to the Student Code of Conduct, University Policy 6.4, or the Code of Academic Integrity, regardless of when the university becomes aware of the misconduct.</p> <p>Generally, when an admitting academic unit becomes aware of an allegation of pre-attendance misconduct or failure to meet a condition of admission, the senior admissions official for the unit and/or another appropriate university official(s) (for example, the director of undergraduate admissions) will make an initial assessment.</p> <p>Where there is a clear failure to meet a specific stated condition of admission – for example, failing to earn a specific grade or complete an academic program – the senior admission official for the admitting unit may revoke admission without further inquiry.</p> <p>In all other cases, if following the initial assessment there is reason to gather additional information, the senior admissions official and/or other appropriate university official(s) will typically notify the admitted student of the alleged misconduct, request a prompt written response to the allegation, and gather additional information as needed. Following this inquiry, the senior admissions official and/or other appropriate university official(s) may either dismiss the matter, resolve it without revocation, or refer it to the dean of the admitting academic unit or their designee for a final determination on revocation.</p> <p>Applicants whose admission is revoked after they have commenced attendance at the university will be administratively withdrawn and unable to reenroll. In addition, the university may at its discretion void any course credit and grades reflected on the student’s official transcript and note the transcript to reflect the revocation. The student may also be responsible for returning any scholarship, grant or fellowship funds previously awarded.</p> </td> </tr> </table> <br /><hr /><div style="float: right"> <a href="javascript:void(0);" class="acalog_top_link acalog-highlight-ignore">Back to Top</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="/content.php?catoid=60&navoid=26553&print" onclick="acalogPopup('/content.php?catoid=60&navoid=26553&print', 'print_preview', 770, 530, 'yes');return false;" target="_blank" class="print_link acalog-highlight-ignore" alt="Text Version" title="Print-Friendly Page (opens a new window)"><span class="sr-only">Print-Friendly Page (opens a new window)</span></a></div><div class="acalog-social-media-links social-media-align"> </div> <div align="left"> <a onclick="acalogPopup('portfolio.php?catoid=60&add=1&navoid=26553#nav_links', 'portfolio', 770, 530, 'yes');return false;" target="_blank" class="portfolio_link acalog-highlight-ignore acalog-icon" href="javascript:void(0)" title="Add to Favorites (opens a new window)"> </a> </div> </td> </tr> </table> </td>  <td class="block_n2" colspan="3" id="acalog-nav"> <table class="block_n2_content links_table"> <tr> <td role="search" aria-labelledby="n2_search_header" class="block_n2_search "> <form name="n2_search" method="get" action="/search_advanced.php" onSubmit="return validateSearchOptions()"> <fieldset id="global-search-fieldset"> <legend>Global Search</legend> <input type="hidden" title="Cur Cat OID" name="cur_cat_oid" value="60"> <input type="hidden" title="Search Database" name="search_database" value="Search"> <input type="hidden" title="Search" name="search_db" value="Search"> <input type="hidden" title="cpage" name="cpage" value="1"> <input type="hidden" title="ecpage" name="ecpage" value="1"> <input type="hidden" title="ppage" name="ppage" value="1"> <input type="hidden" title="spage" name="spage" value="1"> <input type="hidden" title="tpage" name="tpage" value="1"> <span class="n2_search_header" id="n2_search_header">Courses of Study Search</span> <br> <span class="no_display"> <label for="location" class="no_display">Choose Search Location</label> <div id="location_select_parent"> <script> function reloadLocations() { var locations_in_use = 0;
