Campus Visit Notes for Cornell University:
Visit Description:
The campus is large, hilly and a bit spread out. Easy to get lost but there are a few (not many) posted maps. There is more vehicle traffic than most campuses we have visited. There is a large parking garage but it is not centrally located.
