<p>And I’m sure this has been asked before, but I had a minor panic attack when a friend applying ED to American asked if I had printed/signed/sent my ED agreement. I talked to my guidance counselor and he said that Cornell did not require such a thing, but it still sends butterlfies swooping in my stomach every time I think of it. Is this true?</p>
<p>I’m a little paranoid, but then again, like the rest of us on here, there really is no other school for me.</p>
<p>They don’t want the ED agreement and they advise you not to send it on their website.</p>
<p>ISellHope - thanks! lol I hope everything works out =] </p>
<p>I just got my ApplicantID in my email this morning! Wooo! Their tracking service is still down, but it’s allll good. =]</p>
<p>Thanks for the response! And yes, I get a little flutter of hope every time Ienter my ApplicantID and password, although the serice has been down for a while.</p>
<p>Does anyone know how many people are flat out rejected during ED? I’m hoping for worst case senario defer to regular admissions. Do they just reject the hopeless students?</p>
<p>Remember guys, there are usually 3k students applying ED. And this year, probably 4k+, so there is plenty more competition out there than this board.</p>
<p>Can I get into Cornell
I’m a legacy
I applied Early Decision
My GPA is 3.5 at a private high school in Arizona, and I’m in the top 1/3 of my class.
100 % of grads go to 4 year colleges… 1/3 of the class goes to First Class Institutions…Stanford, MIT, Harvard, Duke, etc. 1/3 of the class goes to Second Tier Institutions… Washington University, Trinity, Tulane, Rice, UVA, etc. The bottom tier attends Univ of Colorado, ASU, Uof A, etc.
My SAT’s are M-800, CR-680, W-780, I only took them once. My SAT II 's are
Math level 2 - 780, English Lit - 800, and US History -780
I take all honors classes along with 2 foreign languages every year. I speak and read Mandarin, Latin (through IV), Greek, and Spanish.
I have lots of extra curriculur activities and am both a kick boxer and a harpist.
I have applied to the Arts and Science College in linguistics.
What are my chances?</p>
<p>I’m not sure how many are flat our rejected, but I know that they do just reject the “hopeless students” lol </p>
<p>I read somewhere on their website that if you apply early and you just don’t make the cut, they will send you a rejection letter stating that you will not be considered during regular admission. </p>
<p>How much would it suck to get one of those letters… -sigh-</p>
<p>We won’t get them, don’t worry. It’s only for those who have never heard of CC stats.</p>
<p>lol This waiting till December is SO nerve racking O_O
I keep finding myself on CC on the Cornell discussion boards… or on their website reading about random things and programs etc… or even a while ago, looking at how much it cost to do laundry. </p>
<p>You know some kids spend around a 100 - 300 bucks a semester on laundry?!</p>
<p>That’s okay, they have gorges there. Wash them there = free!</p>
<p>Yeah, I tend to go on Cornell’s site also & CC boards. Hope they update our application status’ soon. I need to know what I’m missing! It’s so annoying waiting… aem bound woot.</p>
<p>!@#@$~!%& </p>
<p>So much anxiety T_T</p>
<p>Not only are there a ton applying ED to Cornell, there are a TON applying to to AEM. -sigh-</p>
<p>I’m with you guys; I keep checking this board (hell, I’m even subscribed) and the Undergraduate Admissions page for any updated announcements. December please come soon?</p>
<p>November is such an ugly month</p>
<p>ILUxpssh, I’m with you. I keep seeing this one kid’s CC screen name EVERYWHERE. Like, he’s started at least 50 posts, and I think to myself, “This kid is nuts.” But then I realize that I am on CC just as much. </p>
<p>-double sigh-</p>
<p>I think I’ll just set the parental controls to block CC.</p>
<p>It’s natural, it shows you passion for Cornell University. Hopefully it’ll work out for most of us sooner or later…</p>
<p>AEM is way too competitive, heard speculation about them creating a new school @ Cornell for business majors. PURELY SPECULATIVE <>. At least I have some nice hooks in.</p>
<p>ahhh! It has to be unhealthy to be on CC this much. </p>
<p>I’ve even started youtube-ing cornell, lol </p>
<p>Are CAS and COE super competitive? I initially wanted to apply to COE as primary and CAS as alternate choice, however, I switched them around because I knew I’d want to take a lot of social-science classes outside of my major, and CAS would probably be a better fit </p>
<p>I hope everything works out; if not, I’ll be spending my entire winter break filling out applications for RD schools I’ve pushed off with hopes of getting into Cornell.</p>
<p>I’m not applying ED, but I am basically doing all the same stuff that you all are doing…
I super badly want to go to Cornell Hotel School…
Whenever I go on CC, I head straight for the Cornell forum.
I looked up all the FWS and decided which ones I would take if I went to Cornell (I want to take this one about Shakespeare and film, or one about food!)
I searched all the PE classes and really want to go backpacking around the finger lakes!
Whenever I talk about how things are going to be next year, I put everything in context of Cornell (like when shopping for clothes, I think about buying boots and snow coats. i think about working at the Statler when i consider getting a job. i think about eating collegetown bagels when i eat bagels. i think about thanksgiving and not flying home because ithaca is far away from my home…)
I have become Cornell-washed. Go BIG RED! :)</p>
<p>Been lurking here for a while… Applied to CALS ( environmental engineering).</p>
<p>I’d be really happy if I got into AEM…then I don’t have to do those RD apps ahhh. Where else are you AEM’ers applying if the unfortunate happens?</p>
<p>want to know what my regular decision chances are…</p>
