Hi everyone, I'm looking at Cornell as one of my top choices, but I know it's pretty competitive. Does anyone know roughly how many people apply to Cornell each year? I'm trying to gauge the size of the applicant pool. Thanks!
Hi there! Cornell University indeed is a competitive school with a sizable applicant pool. In recent years, the number of applicants to Cornell has been between 60,000 to 70,000 applicants annually. Please keep in mind that this number may vary from year to year, but it should give you a rough idea of the competition. Good luck with your application!
