Columbia has three colleges for undergraduate admission purposes: Columbia College, Fu Foundation School of Engineering, and School of General Studies.
The School of General Studies is not even prestigious with an admission rate approaching 20%.
Both CC and Fu Engineering are hard to get in, but the latter has an admission rate about 1-2% higher than the former.
The applicant pools are totally different, especially for the ED round-- this might be very true---as most of kids, no matter they have GPA 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0, want to go to big cities, they would shoot it anyhow even they all end in local community colleges.
没大奖没特长的孩子，只有学习好，想ED打个枣（没有梦校），喜欢文理学院里面的CS，不喜欢工程学院的CS。
请问碰运气的话康奈尔还是哥伦比亚哪个中奖率高一点点？
求建议，谢谢！
差好几倍呢。
而且哥大的工程学院比CC好进。
you compare Cornell Unvi vs Columbia college?

它的eng 单独录取吗？如果是的话，不会比Cornell的cas 难度有数量级的差异。CAS已经很不好进。
康奈尔的文理学院8%，CC5%-- just googled

不可以generalized。康那么多学院，学生差异很大的
不说了。
你会觉得疙瘩比PY难, 东北比康难。
I have no intention of belittling Cornell, which is actually of my favorite colleges.
But if you were to live in the Greater New York area, you would know where my assessment is coming from.
哥大在我学区录的孩子，两个体育娃，两个肤色娃，两个stem娃，一个low income。两个stem娃都有T5的 offer。总之，就是有hook。所以我说哥大不好进。
康的话，就是成绩很好，觉得是聪明孩子可以通过努力达到的高度。没觉得有特别明显的hook。

and does not fit into the practical statistics
The mass mailing, which is run by a business branch affiliated with the University, is designed to increase the number of applicants
没人打酒店，建筑和eng。
也有大枣CAS的，但不如那几个多
to be objective.
肯定一般纽约人更喜欢疙瘩。
最重要的，两个学校风格不同。
worship prestige。呵呵
core是一种out of date的curriculum，无它，芝大的也一样
