Hi.

I am a freshman at Cornell majoring in Hotel Administration. However, as I attend classes and stuffs, I think I am more into finance than hospitality business. Will I have a decent shot at Wharton? I hope to get GPA around 3.8. I had okay SAT score (around 1400), but not going to take it again. I am in three investment clubs at Cornell, and in one of them I am an analyst. I was validictorian at my high school... Umm,,, I worked a lot in hotels and had my own business as well.

Thank you.

Why not try Cornell's business program? It is pretty highly ranked.

Cornell's business program is not that great. by the way, Cornellian, you should drop me a line, im a freshman too and i plan on transferring to Wharton this year.

i'm at college at penn interested in dual degreeing (earning a degree in the college and at wharton). i do know that wharton starts with a class size of 450 and works its way up to about 600 with transfers. however, of those additional 150, about 70 might come from penn as internal transfers- people like me who want to dual degree or even transfer from the college to wharton. so that leaves 70-8- spaces for external transfers.

just so ya know how they do it.

good luck
