First-year and transfer students can apply via the Common Application, which should be completed and submitted online. Cornell also requires a Writing Supplement. The Cornell undergraduate college or school a student applies to may have additional requirements, such as a portfolio or a design submission. Before getting started with the Common App, please be sure to review our How to Apply webpage.

Cornell highly encourages applicants to submit all application materials online. If you have any questions about applying, please contact engage@admissions.cornell.edu.
