Cornell HSA really, really, really likes to see evidence that you know the service industry. Look for a paying job as a server, in a country club, caddying, making beds and doing laundry at bed and breakfast, working at McDonalds, being a line cook at a Waffle House.
Hospitality is unique industry. Like medicine, you will love it or hate it (sometimes both at the same time): you should know that before you go in. Cornell wants to see evidence you will stick with it before they admit you. And not just volunteering or shadowing.
In addition, Cornell requires you to have experience hours to graduate. Yes, like making beds at the Stadler.
They want students who can work and will work and have a humble spirit. Currently, your application does not stand out in any way for Hotel School: you could be a cookie cutter applicant to any liberal arts program.
Are you sure you really want Hotel school? You need roll up your sleeves and get a paying, non-glamorous job before applying.
