Cornell University

Cornell University was established in 1865 as a private college. Cornell enrolled more than 21,000 students last year, with nearly 65 percent of them pursuing undergraduate degrees. In the same year, international students made up about 20% of the entire student body. Cornell's tuition is the same for domestic and international students, and the institution offers a variety of university student housing options, including themed residence halls and flats for graduate and professional students.

The university includes 15 colleges and institutions in Ithaca, New York City, and Doha, Qatar, with seven undergraduate divisions, as well as graduate and professional divisions. Agriculture and life sciences; architecture, art and planning; arts and sciences; business; engineering; human ecology; and industrial and labor relations are among the undergraduate colleges' offerings. The academic calendar at the university is semester-based, and English is the medium of teaching. For international students, Cornell provides English language courses and other services, such as a language partner program. Both undergraduate and graduate students at Cornell have access to research opportunities. The Food Science Summer Scholar Program, a 10-week program that pays students with stipends, is one such opportunity for undergrads. The Cornell Center for Comparative and Population Genomics, the Center for the Study of Inequality, and the Center for Advanced Computing are just a few of the university's research centers.
