If you have decided you want to join the Cornell Engineering community, here are your next steps.
1. Accept your offer of admission via your application status page by May 1, 2025.
2. Visit the Admitted Students website and review your New Student To-do List. Here you will find a detailed to-do list that will walk you through how to get your NetID (a.k.a. your Cornell email), sign up for housing and dining and more! You will be able to monitor your checklist from here to keep you on track!
3. Check your email regularly. Amongst other important Cornell emails, you will receive a series of emails from the Engineering Advising Office starting May 2, 2025. These emails will walk you through step by step everything you need to know and do to get ready for your Cornell journey to begin. It is your responsibility to read these emails and meet all stated deadlines.
4. Stay the course and finish your senior year strong! We do check final grades! You are not able to change your senior schedule without written permission from our office. Your admission to the College of Engineering at Cornell is contingent upon you satisfactorily completing any coursework in progress. We will consider course selection changes on a case-by-case basis, and these must be approved by your high school counselor. To submit a request, please send an email to engr_admissions@cornell.edu.
5. Get ready to begin your Cornell journey in August 2025!
