Cornell University Athletics

Why I Chose Cornell: I loved the energy and sense of community that I felt on campus when I initially visited in high school. Everyone was so enthusiastic about why they loved Cornell and went out of their way to help me and answer any questions I had. There never seemed to be a dull moment with all that Cornell had to offer. The academic rigor that Cornell is known for attracts the brightest minds, and the professors here are so dedicated and passionate about teaching. Out of all the students I met throughout my college visits, Cornell’s students were some of the most talented, passionate, committed and friendly undergrads I had ever seen. I could really see myself fitting into the community here at Cornell and could see myself making lasting friendships with the students that surrounded me.
