<p>Due to the wide and varied amount of information regarding Cornell transfer admissions and its agreements with community (and other) colleges, I figure this tread might be a useful reference. From a Daily sun article:</p>
<p>For Human Ecology:
The goal of a transfer agreement, which involves the creation of specific articulations, is to assist potential transfer students by outlining what courses they should take at their respective schools that could carry over easily to Cornell
These recommendations “prescribe” which courses the college wants to see in applicants who are prepared to transfer to Cornell, according to Paul Fisher, senior associate director of admissions for Human Ecology.</p>
<p>However, Fisher said, “Human Ecology articulations do not imply acceptance.”</p>
<p>Rather, the agreement ensures that RVCC courses will transfer seamlessly into the Human Ecology curriculum.
</p>
<p>CALS:
A quick time out for a wonderful blunder by the Sun:
Transfer students wishing to enroll in Applied Economics and Management, Biological Sciences, Biology & Society, and Landscape Architecture , however, are simply considered competitive applicants and not guaranteed admission.
</p>
<p>ILR:
In an e-mail, Ian Schachner, Industrial Labor Relations admissions/transfer counselor, said, “ILR does not have any articulation agreements with any two-year schools and we currently have no plans of establishing this in the future.”

<p>He shoots he scores!</p>
<p>I don’t get it. What was the blunder by the Sun? And in what way was it a blunder?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>copy/pasted from the article, this is how the paragraph reads:</p>
<p>
Students matriculating at these two-year institutions are guaranteed admission so long as they meet five transfer criteria, which include having at least a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 and demonstrating a solid interest and fit in the CALS major these criteria have been mentioned earlier…could we mention the other three? might be more interesting. If applicants meet all five criteria
</p>
<p>Note that this is not the same as the “Transfer Option” aka Guaranteed Transfer offered to students who apply for freshmen admission.</p>
<p>This deals with agreements between Cornell schools and Community Colleges and other colleges that facilitate transfer of students between the schools.</p>
