I'll be at Johnson (Class of 2012) in August! I did my undergraduate at Cornell and would be happy to try to answer any questions you might have about Ithaca/Cornell. Thanks for starting the thread!

For AMBA's, did any of you do some housing searches. Most of the leases i came across were either from June or Aug.

Would we be able to get some of the Univ Graduate housing or is everyone thinking of staying outside the campus?

Hi,

I am an admitted AMBA too. I'm a product marketing professional based in Silicon Valley.

I haven't looked into housing in Ithaca yet. Would it be too late to wait until DJ to scope for apts with leases starting in May?

Cheers!

A waitlist from the last school I applied to made the decision pretty easy for me: Johnson Class of '12.
I'm from Montreal, Canada.
See you all there.

Hi folks, i've applied to INSEAD, JBS and LBS R1.. would really like to hear from you on how does a Cornell AMBA compare to the European 1 yr MBA programs? Am only looking at a 1 yr / 1.5 yr MBA as I already have a post grad diploma in business mgmt from one of India's top business schools. Any replies will be greatly appreciated. tx

hey guys, I have noticed that Johnson accepts really young people with one or two years of WE. Why do you think this is the case ? I mean, I know a few people that go to Johnson with just 1 year of WE.. or maybe it`s just a coincidence ?
