if I remember correctly on YouTube Collegevine has a video with some tips for the Cornell essay. Also depending on the word count you can essentially write a compare and contrast essay or just kinda write what your searching for and how that rules out other schools.

Some topics to include might be the collegetown aspect (Harvard in Boston etc) specific programs only at Cornell reputation of the univ like diversity. To rephrase the question why did you pick Cornell over other ivy caliber schools. If you have any personal relations to Cornell.

Also any statistics that you cite would be a good thing.

Hope this helps and please comment if you need clarification as I’d be happy to help clarify!
