@monydad, your logic actually makes perfect sense. but a couple of my good friends are frshmans at cornell now and one of my best friends will be going this fall, so im not too worried about making friends. :)

@rockymtnhigh, they will accept the credits as long as there is a parallel course in cornell. And since im gonna be taking generic courses like bio, econ, calc, etc. i should be fine.

ok i agreed with SJUHawk that the world rankings are completely off. there is NO way Georgetown is ranked in the 300s. And you have to admit that people do go to Cornell just for the ivy league prestige. Alot of people wanted me to go there just on that basis so i think that sort of thinking is not obsolete. thats the reason my friend is attending this fall (i know, its shallow of her lol).

however, the rich kid, rich family thing is DEFINITELY more prevalent at georgetown. I hated seeing all those ppl walking around smugly in their country club outfits.

i dont mind any of your guys arguements about which school is better, but any more advice on transferring?
