Accepted to USMA-West Point via Senatorial and Congressional nominations.
just waiting on my two ivies now. It's not looking good though because even if I'm accepted I don't think we'll be able to afford it, so i'm not as enthusiastic as before... but one can hope

I just received an email from an alum saying she wanted to interview me. I applied for ilr and arts and sciences and I thought Cornell didn't normally do interviews except for the hotel school and aaap.....

That's not really what Cornell considers an interview. DD had her information alumni "meet and greet" - these interviews have little influence on actual admissions. At the most, they gauge your real interest in the school.

I graduated from the Hotel school back in the day (required interview on campus) , while my sister graduated ILR (alumni interview). Standard fare.

how does cornell notify you of your decision and how long does it typically take from the time you apply, thanks?

It'll be at the end of march and they'll email you what to do 2 days before or so

@pch430 hotelies have to dress up on Fridays for participation grade?

@lilredboxes, I completely agree with you, waiting for the end of March is extremely difficult especially since I am so impatient lol. I am hoping for the best since my friend was accepted ED and my GPA and SAT scores are much higher than hers.

pch340 · 02-12-2012, 03:15 PM

@lifeisbeautiful, yes, I heard that too haha...not sure if it's true or not. We were required to wear a full suit for the interview so I wouldn't be surprised.
