The New York State College of Agriculture and Life Sciences at Cornell University[1] (CALS or Ag School) is one of Cornell University's four statutory colleges,[2][3] and is the only College of Agriculture and Life Sciences in the Ivy League.[4][5][6] With enrollment of approximately 3,100 undergraduate and 1,000 graduate students, CALS is Cornell's second-largest undergraduate college and the third-largest college of its kind in the United States.[7][8]

"Part of a private, Ivy League university, while being connected to The State University of New York,"[1] CALS administrates New York's cooperative extension program jointly with the College of Human Ecology as part of its land-grant mission. CALS runs the New York State Agricultural Experiment Station in Geneva, New York, and the Cornell University Agricultural Experiment Station, as well as other research facilities in New York.[9]

In 2007–08, CALS total budget (excluding the Geneva Station) is $283 million, with $96 million coming from tuition and $52 million coming from state appropriations. The Geneva Station budget was an additional $25 million.
