BringBackFergy Posted April 6, 2015 Author Posted April 6, 2015 Heh, RPI loses another one. He'll probably enjoy Ithaca more anyway. Congrats He loves RPI and the financial aid package was ok, but I think he likes the idea of a bigger school and being 4 hours away (rather than 45 minutes away).

John from Riverside Posted June 20, 2016 Posted June 20, 2016 Cornell is a excellent school. We accept lots of their undergrads into our graduate programs.
BringBackFergy Posted June 20, 2016 Author Posted June 20, 2016 He thoroughly enjoyed it. Now majoring in Plant Science/Breeding/Genetics (they have a leading program there and it seems to be a huuge area of growth). Joined a frat and attended hockey games etc. All classes passed (thankfully). Thanks guys.

GG Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 Great news. Have you sequestered a safe space at home for him to prepare for college?

Gugny Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 Cornell is a excellent school. We accept lots of their undergrads into our graduate programs. I had no idea you worked in Admissions. One of my colleagues is pursing her Master's with aspirations of becoming a Dean of Admissions. Any advice I could pass along to her would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!!
BuffaloBud Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 RIT's loss (where I went) is Cornell's gain. Great work by you and your wife on getting him on a solid path. Up to him now to close the deal.
dib Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 When we dropped our children off at their respective campuses, there must have been a lot of dust blowing around.. Don't be surprised if your drop off day is 'dusty' too.
PromoTheRobot Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 Cornell is definitely the cream of that crop. Congrats.
Mike in Horseheads Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 He thoroughly enjoyed it. Now majoring in Plant Science/Breeding/Genetics (they have a leading program there and it seems to be a huuge area of growth). Joined a frat and attended hockey games etc. All classes passed (thankfully). Thanks guys. He's right up the road about 40 miles from Horseheads. IT Manager where I work daughter goes there and plays on the softball team. Congrats on 1 year down!

Don't be surprised if your drop off day is 'dusty' too. Yes, that was last fall. Now that he's entering Sophomore year (I'm sure it will be similarly dusty) RIT's loss (where I went) is Cornell's gain. Great work by you and your wife on getting him on a solid path. Up to him now to close the deal. Exactly. RIT is a great school. Congrats! CBF Thanks. You are a very kind moderator (just saying) Cornell is definitely the cream of that crop. Congrats. Thanks PTR He's right up the road about 40 miles from Horseheads. IT Manager where I work daughter goes there and plays on the softball team. Congrats on 1 year down! Pics?

Johnny Hammersticks Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 GREAT bud in Ithaca. Some very nice kitty as well. My ex girlfriend went to Cornell, and I used to live with her there summers during undergrad. I'm jealous.
