"Dear (name here),

"I'm writing to let you know how much the admissions selection committee enjoyed reading your application. Your academic and personal achievements are outstanding, and your future goals seem well suited to Cornell University. Although the Ivy League schools won't notify students of their admission decisions until early April, it may excite you to know that you are very likely to be admitted to Cornell."

Like Michael Jackson would say, "hee hee"

By the way I applied as a Political Science major to the College of Arts and Sciences (at least I think its Arts and Sciences)

The letter was dated March 11, 2005

arp6487 · 03-14-2005, 07:27 PM

I had a difficult time deciding between Cornell and Dartmouth when I applied ED, there's too many reasons to list why I choose Cornell, I'm probably biased anyway...
