CHANCE ME? Thank you!! :slight_smile:

Probably will get in, you are well rounded.

@StudyFoxx I LOVE YOU thank you

Make sure recs and essays are good because those could keep you out, I can’t really chance those.

Do you have any hospitality industry work experience?

@tappyblue kind of… I have done some work in my skating club for coaches’ lounges and also have competed at DECA in the hospitality and tourism category. I’ve never worked in a hotel or anything of that sorts

@grapevine88 I think you’re very well rounded. I’d say you have an 80-90% chance of getting in depending on your essay you seem to have a strong personality. As for what you can improve upon, If you retake the SAT and score higher you can further boost your chances. If you don’t mind take a look at my “Chance Me” since I am also applying to Cornell haha http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/cornell-university/2024642-cornell-early-decision-chances.html#latest

While you are a very good candidate academically, the hotel school is really looking for hospitality experience. Really highlight the work you have done with DECA in the essays, because that could be a nice connection and show SHA that you have business experience and a foundation for expanding that to hospitality.
