<p>I’m a soon-to-be Cornell freshman (made my deposit this past Tuesday at the university during Cornell Days :)) and I was wondering how likely it would be for me to get placed in the JAM (Just About Music) residence hall. If I couldn’t get into JAM, I would want to live in a regular residence hall… but apparently it’s either choices 1, 2, and 3 for a themed community or simply random placement in a normal residence hall. Hence, I’d only like to apply to JAM if I’m pretty certain that I’ll get in. There are 144 spaces available–does anyone know how likely it is that I’ll be placed in JAM?</p>
<p>well, whats your SAT score?</p>
<p>1400, but I really don’t see how (or what) SAT score has to do with residential hall placement…</p>
<p>jam is not hard to get into, just write a decent essay. Selection for program houses have nothing to do with your academics.</p>
<p>sorry i was kidding about that…cause people are like "do you think i can get into “______?!?” <–insert ivy league school and people always say stuff like “well what was your SAT score?” so yeah, sorry bad joke, I know nothing about jam other than that i might want it soph year.</p>
<p>JAM is pretty easy to get into. I’d only do it if you’re pretty harcore into your music though.</p>
<p>I play piano and i was interested in JAM but I’m very classical and I wasn’t sure if that’s what would fit in as much. So if anybody has any insight as to how the music works in that house I’d appreciate you sharing it.</p>
