Cornell Class of 2020 Early Decision Discussion

@NICE8x How do you know they sent? Is it just the email they send? I wish they would tell you when Cornell receives them. It would take away so much stress.

@Geocach If you log into your college board account, next to the buttom that says to send score there should be a link that says “see sent scores”. You will see a list and next to each college it either will say scores have been requested or sent.

Just want to wish everybody best of luck! EDs are out soon!

I wonder if I will get in as a Plant Science Major
The wait is killing me

@blerghnn Thanks Just sent them off
@NICE8x Haha yeah they were quite good (high 700s) for physics math and chinese, although CALS dont’t require any subject tests, ill still send em.

Hey guys I took the act in Sept. and in Oct. I sent both scores to Cornell. However, I was wondering if there was a way to see on the portal that Cornell received both scores. Cornell has been selected to receive my scores since before I took the test in October and ACT says that they sent my October score report. I just want to make sure they have arrived (they arrived at the EA schools I applied to) because as of right now I only see a check next to ACT scores which is kind of ambiguous. Thank you!

@aek287 the only way to see if Cornell actually received the scores is on the portal. The SAT score won’t show up until they actually get it, so if it’s not showing up they probably haven’t gotten it yet.

@aek287 but I wouldn’t worry. All of the EA schools you applied to received your scores so you should be fine. My EA schools said they received mine like 4 or 5 days before Cornell said they did. I think Cornell’s portal just takes a while to update. Probably because so many people apply.

@aek287 The best thing to do is to call Cornell admissions. They will transfer you to Processing Dept. They can confirm if they indeed received either or both score reports. It happens too often that ACT says they send reports but they did not or the universities somehow did not received it. I had to send ACT report to an EA college second time before they finally received it.

I called Cornell today and they said they received the October Act. My only concern is that they already looked at my application and made a decision based off of my other test scores. Will they reconsider your application if they already made a decision without the October Act?

Do you guys believe most of decisions have been made already by now?

Most likely, since decisions come out in like 2 weeks

Another tweet this time from Cornell Engineering confirming Cornell ED results will be posted Thursday Dec 10th 5pm

Woot! Then December 10th 5pm is a confirmed date! I can’t believe we have to wait for 2 weeks…

@NICE8x Can’t find that tweet. Can you post the link to it?

@NICE8x OMG In 2 weeks. Fingers crossed guys!

Hey guys - I’ve been reading this thread for a while and I’m also applying ED to Cornell (CALS as an atmospheric science major :slight_smile: ) This is probably an obvious question, but it’s 5pm EST that decisions will be released, correct? I assume it’s EST since that’s what Cornell is on, but just want to make sure.

Yup. 5pm EST.

Ok great thanks!
