No Cornell EMBA does not provide acceptance rate information - most EMBA programs feel that number would be misleading because there is a lot of self-selecting and admissions resume review prior to you applying; in this way, its difficult to compare it to the full-time program.
They care most about what you will contribute in the classroom, because with the EMBA students teach one another as much as they learn from the professor. If you traversed complex challenges and have some hacks, that will be appealing. I call it akin to a "mastermind alliance."
They are looking for people who are good teaming with others at their same level, so cross-functional and board experience is valued. People who will be active, engaged, social and add value to both the social and academic experience of others. The school is "selling" you/fellow students almost as much as they are selling themselves. You are both the product and the consumer.
Your undergraduate GPA has a much smaller role to play in the EMBA vs the full-time MBA. They are more focused on identifying good people who like to help others, with unique experiences to share. I suspect that the Metro NYC program is more competitive than the "boardroom" Americas option but can't be sure.
Just make sure to do the application well, and on your resume, show progression (break out your promotions), community leadership, entrepreneurial experiences if applicable, and some fun facts! Make sure to identify strong stories for the recommendations, which play an even larger part in the admissions process than full-time. Programs want to know how others experience you, so demonstrate achievement and problem solving but also demonstrate how you build culture, are capable of "leadership without authority" and that others like working with and for you.
Because Cornell Metro EMBA competes with the other 2 NYC schools, it would be wise to network with students and alums and mention what you gained from this in the essays or interview. They want to know you drank the "Big Red" kool-aid and if chosen, would choose them back!

What are the steps to be taken before applying apart from seeking advice from
an admission consultant and connecting with alumni of the program ?
