Based on the acceptance rates of the respective institutes it can be said that Cornell is slightly easier to get into as compared to Stanford.

Though securing admissions to both institutions is not an easy ask, Cornell with an acceptance rate of 7.8% is a bit less selective at picking students than Stanford that has an acceptance rate almost half that of Cornell, 3.9%.

If the institute's acceptance rate of 7.8% is anything to go by, it can be said that it is very selective at granting admissions to its students.

Only highly qualified individuals who have shown excellence in academics as well as other spheres of the student life are allowed admissions.

A Bachelor of Science programme at Cornell Engineering can cost anywhere between INR 54.77 L-55.45 L. Apart from this, students must also keep in mind the cost of living in NYC that can vary depending on the kind of lifestyle students decide to pursue.

The estimated cost of living in NYC is around INR 25-30 L for students residing in university housing. This can go higher if students opt to pursue a more relaxed lifestyle.
