My daughter is a freshman. She was one of the lucky Hotelies who got admitted in February but she knows a lot of people who got off the WL last year. So, there is definitely hope. Good luck

I got waitlisted too, but when I tried to follow the instructions to access the waitlist form, I couldnā€™t find it. Is anyone having the same issue as me?

Enroll in another 4 year institutions, maintain 3.5 GPA, apply for transfer next year (remember to do so), and she will go in as a sophomore =)

I got the transfer option from College of Human Ecology. So If I go to Berkeley next year and maintain a certain GPA and take certain course requirements, and I guaranteed admission to Cornell CHE for my sophomore year?

My daughter was Waitlisted, and is so thankful

For those with issues accessing the Waitlist form, when she tried clicking the link it would automatically route her back to the home page. She had to right-click and select the option to open the link under a new tab and then the Waitlist form would show up. Hope that works for others as well.

You will not see the word ā€œguaranteedā€ anywhere. But yes, if you meet the requirements, you can expect to enter in your sophomore year. My daughter is expecting her acceptance letter in about 3 weeks for her transfer.

You will get more info about the TO in the coming weeks. You will be assigned a transfer option advisor who will help you next year and be available to answer questions.

Congratulations!

Transfer option is not guaranteed, but if you meet the requirements, it can be considered likely. Cornell has had some campus housing overcrowding the last couple of years.
