Can I do research with a Cornell vet school professor if I am an undergraduate at Cornell?

I’m currently writing my “Why us?” supplement to apply for Cornell as an undergraduate. I want to talk about a professor in my essay that does research on a specific area of animal science I’m interested in. However, the professor is from Cornell’s vet grad school. Would it be right to say I want to do research with him in my essay, or is that not possible considering I’m applying for Cornell undergrad?
