At this time, we are not able to offer an opportunity to meet with professors individually. We encourage new students to connect with their college community through CUontheHill.
NetIDs are issued by IT@Cornell to newly admitted enrolling students starting in early April. You will receive information and instructions via email on how to activate your NetID.
After you submit your enrollment deposit and receive your Cornell NetID, you can sign up for housing through the Housing Portal. The deadline is Thursday, May 15, 2026. More information will be coming from our Housing Office, so please be sure to check your email. Housing is guaranteed for first-year students.
In addition to virtual events, Cornell Days is a one-day visit program in Ithaca, NY, with consistent programming options across the three dates offered. Newly admitted first-year students and families are invited to campus to connect with their college or school, tour campus, and enjoy a meal in one of our many Cornell Dining eateries.
