Student experiences

"Cornell was absolutely eye-opening, and I learned so many things. I especially loved getting a taste of college life; I love independence and responsibility. Professor Grimm was awesome, and I could tell he really loved what he was doing/teaching."

"I wanted to go to a program that focused purely on photography and film. I found the work that I did fun and the people with whom I was doing it fun. From studying on the arts quad on a sunny Tuesday to studying in Uris on a rainy Thursday, I loved every minute."
