Experience Cornell for yourself
College is more than choosing a place to study. It's choosing a community where you'll learn, grow, and discover who you want to become.
Destination Cornell is designed to help you picture yourself here. Spend the day exploring campus, talking with current students and professors, experiencing life beyond the classroom, and finding answers to the questions that matter most to you and your family.
Whether Cornell has been your first choice from the beginning or you're still deciding, we're excited to welcome you and help you determine if this is where your story begins.
A Day Designed for you
From the moment you arrive, you'll have opportunities to explore campus, connect with faculty and staff, attend engaging sessions, enjoy meals with current students, and experience the welcoming community that makes Cornell unique. Every part of the day is designed to help you feel informed, supported, and confident as you make your college decision.
