Why don’t you make an appointment with the guidance counselor at your school. They have all the information about the admission requirements for different colleges. Is there a particular reason you want to go to Cornell? There are probably several other schools that would have what you’re looking for, and the counselor could help you find them. It’s always good to have a couple of back-ups. You also should visit the campuses you are serious about. You may find that the school of your dreams isn’t what you thought it was. (I don’t mean Cornell specifically). Good luck!

Yes I do. I think schools are looking at students more holistically now – not just at their grades.

Apply early decision to show your commitment, and set up an interview. That can really make a big difference.

Good luck honey! And just remember, if you don’t get into the school you want, you can probably transfer in later. Like my dad used to say – it doesn’t matter where you start – it matter where you finish.
