Campus<br />

Cornell is unique among Ivy League Insti tu tions in<br />

that it combines both public and endowed colleges<br />

under the umbrella <strong>of</strong> a major research/land grant<br />

university. It <strong>of</strong>fers the wonderful combination <strong>of</strong> the<br />

democratic spirit <strong>of</strong> public institutions, the intellectual<br />

tradition <strong>of</strong> the Ivy League and the great diversity<br />

and wealth <strong>of</strong> opportunity <strong>of</strong> a vital university. <strong>The</strong><br />

School <strong>of</strong> Industrial and Labor Relations is located<br />

on the main campus in Ithaca where campus life is<br />

both cosmo politan and dynamic.<br />

Admission Requirements<br />

Admission is highly selective, and is based on the<br />

Common Application. Contact campus for details.<br />

Students are admitted on the basis <strong>of</strong> academic<br />

ability, strength <strong>of</strong> character, leadership potential<br />

and strong interests in the area <strong>of</strong> study. Admission<br />

is “needs-blind.”<br />

Financial Aid<br />

Financial aid is available to all students based on<br />

need. FAFSA, and the College Scholarship Service<br />

develops aid packages around a core <strong>of</strong> state, federal<br />

and Cornell sources. Other options include longterm<br />

and Cornell’s interest-free installment plan.<br />

Programs <strong>of</strong> Study<br />

Unique among undergraduate colleges, the School <strong>of</strong><br />

Industrial and Labor Rela tions <strong>of</strong>fers pr<strong>of</strong>essionallevel<br />

coursework that provides a strong social science<br />

foundation for those interested in the “people”<br />

side <strong>of</strong> organ i za tions. Our students have built careers<br />

in a number <strong>of</strong> fields with human interaction as their<br />

basic focus: management, law, collective bargaining,<br />

consulting, public policy, economics and social research.<br />

Employers range from private corporations<br />

to labor unions, governments, and educational<br />

institutions. Prospective students sometimes ask<br />

whether the ILR School is a business program, a<br />

liberal arts program, or a pr<strong>of</strong>essional program. In<br />

fact it is, in its unique way, all <strong>of</strong> those things coordinated<br />

and focused to ad dress a student’s interest<br />

in the social sciences and their application to the<br />

real problems <strong>of</strong> real people. ILR <strong>of</strong>fers courses in<br />

human resource management, collective bargaining,<br />

organizational behavior, labor economics, labor law,<br />

labor history, social statistics, public policy and<br />

international labor relations. In addition to the BS<br />

degree, the school also awards MS, MILR (Master <strong>of</strong><br />

Industrial and Labor Relations), and PhD degrees.<br />

Undergraduate students have a required core <strong>of</strong><br />

the College <strong>of</strong> Veterinary Medicine is one <strong>of</strong> 28<br />

veterinary colleges and schools in the United <strong>State</strong>s<br />

and one <strong>of</strong> only three in the Northeast. With more<br />

than 5,000 graduates, the College is recognized<br />

inter nationally as a leader in public health, biomedi -<br />

cal research, and veterinary medical education.<br />

Admission Requirements<br />

<strong>The</strong> College welcomes applications from academically<br />

talented and highly motivated individuals <strong>of</strong><br />

diverse backgrounds. <strong>The</strong> typical entering student<br />

has a median undergraduate grade-point average <strong>of</strong><br />

3.7, graduate record examination median percentiles<br />

(verbal and quantitative) <strong>of</strong> 89 and 77, and three to<br />

four-year veterinary medical curriculum <strong>of</strong> classroom<br />

and laboratory instruction and clinical rotations<br />

in our Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital.<br />

Our curriculum is different from those <strong>of</strong> many<br />

other veterinary colleges—it is interdisciplinary,<br />

features tutorial-based learning in the early years,<br />

and focuses on the student as the primary force in<br />

learning. Course material is based on actual clinical<br />

cases selected to highlight biomedical concepts. Our<br />

innovative academic program is supported by state<strong>of</strong>-the-art<br />

teaching, clinical, and research facilities.<br />

study leading to Master <strong>of</strong> Science (MS) and Doctor <strong>of</strong><br />
