The Cornell SC Johnson College of Business houses two undergraduate schools. One of them, the Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management, is a New York State contract school, which means that students from New York State pay in-state tuition.
The other school, the Nolan School of Hotel Administration, is an endowed school.
When applying to the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business, students must choose to apply directly to either the Cornell Peter and Stephanie Nolan School of Hotel Administration or the Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management. Most students have a clear path and should apply to whichever school they believe is the right fit for them based on the curricular and extracurricular offerings of the school.
No, it is exceedingly rare for students to switch their major between the Nolan School of Hotel Administration and the Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management.
Students who wish to pursue the Applied Economics and Management major should apply to the Cornell SC Johnson College of Business, and should select the Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management as their anticipated major within this college.
