It can be HARD to find the campus, but locals help. We stopped several times for directions. [View Full Report]

Collegetown is a separate section of Ithaca situated up in the hills. Lots of cheap food and scenic vistas. [View Full Report]

The area immediately surrounding the campus is nice and cozy. Go to Collegetown Bagels and of course Starbucks. [View Full Report]

Collegetown was a lot of fun and is really just an extension of campus. There are lots of restaurants and the streets are packed with kids. [View Full Report]

Very rural, beautiful area. Weather changes quickly, so be prepared for anything. Wear comfy shoes - you'll be walking and climbing, but it's worth every step. [View Full Report]

The area right around campus is gorgeous. The finger lakes are the highlight, in my opinion. [View Full Report]

There is not much to do in the immediate area, and only a few decent restaurants. Student community is somewhat underserved. [View Full Report]

ithaca is a cute town, there's enough there to meet your needs but also not too much - cornell definitely has a strong sense of campus community, because there isn't much to do outside. [View Full Report]

It wasn't NYC, but there was enough to do when you do want to get off campus. [View Full Report]

Its not going to have as many things to do like New York City, but its not a desolate farmland either. Collegetown is one of the more popular places for people to go off campus. [View Full Report]
