<p>According to the transfer data, CALS accepts about 50% transferring students (CALS offers GT); CAS accepts about 7% transferring students (CAS doesn’t offer GT)… In case of CALS, if all students who got GT and fullfilled all requirement and applied again, then it means 100% ACCEPTED?</p>
<p>GT is really 100% GT?</p>
<p>contingent upon upholding a certain gpa requirement at another university, which is something like a 3.0</p>
<p>so you mean all students (GT) who got at least (let’s say) 3.0 at other universities can get guaranteely into Cornell?</p>
<p>or even though students got at least 3.0 with GT, they cannot be accepted…?</p>
<p>Ummmm… or did Cornell offer certain ratio of GT to students?</p>
<p>A guaranteed transfer is just that, a guranteed transfer (provided you fulfill the requirements).</p>
<p>I don’t see why you would expect CALS to have an 100% transfer acceptance rate since there are transfers who are not GT’s applying as well. Those people, obviously, are not guaranteed an acceptance to Cornell.</p>
<p>is GT for people who are qualified but they don’t accept you right away?</p>
<p>How does that work?</p>
<p>GT is an option given to students who applied RD or Regular Transfer who were not accepted for the immediate semester but rather for a future semester. </p>
<p>You have to be offered one, a select few applicants receive a GT offer, they are not available to anyone. </p>
<p>GT’s are qualified however something is missing. For instance: coursework, as in prerequisites. So you have to fulfill those before transfering, usually receiving a 3.0 average at another university. However, I have heard some with 3.2 minimum GPA w/ no grades below a B. In addition, as far as I know there have been GT’s for every college. I know I’ve read on this forum GTs for CAS.</p>
<p>so… TehRahk! someone who applies Cornell as a transfer student can also get GT?</p>
<p>No. Some people who apply as freshmen don’t get in and are offered a GT after they complete some requirements at another school. If you didn’t get one when you applied as a freshman, you just have to apply as a regular transfer.</p>
<p>Does HE offer GT?</p>
<p>yes mashimlro, actually I am a GT transfer student. </p>
<p>remember that you have to offered a GT; it is not a transfer agreement. Only a few people are eligible by being offered a GT.</p>
<p>as far as I know, all college can/have/do offer GT decisions. although I am not 100% sure, but pretty sure.</p>
<p>There is also a GT thread posted somewhere around here.</p>
<p>yea i thought CAS offered general transfers as well.</p>
<p>lol all of these answers are pretty confusing. You dont ask to get gt or somehow apply for it. During RD they give out acceptances, rejections, waitlists, and gts. period.</p>
<p>Does CAS offer it?</p>
<p>U shouldn’t worry about gt unless ur given it so don’t worry urself about it</p>
<p>I agree… cross that bridge when you come to it. There’s no point worrying about having or not having a GT yet.</p>
<p>what’s the percentage of those who are denied actually receive GTs?</p>
<p>As far as I know, those statistics are not made public. However, I’ve heard figures like 40-50 CALS GT transfers per year. I don’t remember where I read that, though, so I can’t really substantiate it. </p>
<p>Basically, it’s only a handful of regular decision applicants.</p>
<p>um… I am confused!</p>
<p>Case 1. Reject from Cornell (but get GT) —> fullfill all requirement for GT at other colleges ----> Apply Cornell as a GT student -----> Accept Cornell as a sophomore.</p>
<p>Case 2. Reject from Cornell (but get GT) ----> fullfill all requirement for GT at other colleges ----> Apply Cornell as a GT student -----> but Reject again …In this case, rejected again student CAN get “GT” letter again?..and this student can apply Cornell as a junior! (with GT letter)</p>
<p>Case 3. Reject from Cornell (but DIDN’T get GT) ----> Apply Cornell as a regular transfer student -----> but Reject again …In this case, rejected again student CAN get “GT” letter?..and this student can apply Cornell as a junior! (with GT letter)</p>
<p>I am asking both case 2 and 3 are possible?</p>
<p>fu-cking re-tar-ded. GUARANTEED does not mean “maybe guaranteed” or “i’ll tell you how i feel about guaranteeing this when i wake up in the morning.” it’s black and white. if you have guaranteed transfer and fulfill the requirements (get necessary GPA, don’t become a mass murderer/pedophile, etc.) there is no way you will be rejected. you are GUARANTEED admission to the university. case 3 might be possible but that just sucks.</p>
<p>Yeah just don’t worry about GT’s unless you’re offered one. </p>
<p>Case 1 possible
Case 2 IMpossible
Case 3 possible, but yeah, that does suck.</p>
