Incoming Transfers from Outside Cornell

As a new engineering transfer student, your main advisor will be from your major department. Engineering Advising can also help you with common curriculum requirements, planning for study abroad, pre-health career courses, and other questions outside your major.

It is your responsibility to visit this website and to check your Cornell email account often between June and your arrival in August for continued information, deadlines, and updates from Duffield Engineering.

Starting in early June, Engineering Advising will begin periodically emailing new transfer students throughout the summer with important information as it relates to enrolling in classes, preparing for fall semester, and much more!
