Since this school is on a block system, students wanting to go to school at Cornell should consider if this is the best way for them to learn. I highly recommend it to someone who learns better focusing on one thing at a time. The classes move very fast and and there is no room to fall behind. In one day you get the information that you would get in eight hours of class. This is also a good school for someone who enjoys small classes and participating in class a great deal.

No one should have to change their being to become someone more 'acceptable' or 'wanted'. Cornell College helps each individual develop their character and self-image. Not one person has to alter their reflection to fit in with the crowd. There is a place for everyone here. All the students are quickly able to find a group of friends that will last them a lifetime. This school helps you be yourself and not feel judged. If you do not want to deal with the "status quo", Cornell College is the place for you.
Heather
Someone who likes being social as well as introverted some of the time. We are all aware of one another and one anothers business but at the same time no ones opion of one another really effects that person.
Anastasia
Someone who is very focused on their education and wants a laid back college experience.
Angela
Creative, ecclectic individuals who like having fun with life. A strong work ethic is needed, but so is the ability to crazy fun at 2 am, you'll need it to survive the block plan. If you can focus on one subject for 18 days, and not go completely bonkers til day 14 you are good. Lots of reading, lots of writing, lots of partying, Cornell students like to do life all at once.
Jennifer
Someone who can focus on one class at a time, is able to talk with professors, and is interested in extracurriculars. Someone who does not get bored living in the middle of Iowa but participates in student life.

People who want to be known by name and recognized by face would love Cornell College. Ones who focus easily for long, in-depth periods of time will prosper here with the block system. Also, people who like a small-town feel, away from the bustle of the rat race, will thrive in cozy Mount Vernon. There are plenty of things to do outdoors, from hiking and swimming and fishing to cross-country skiing and running, the only things missing are the mountains and the ocean. Or, if you prefer the quiet life, the gaming community is strong too!
Veronica
A liberal person who is open to experiencing many new things and different ways of life.
