Did anyone see the “Regular Decision Early Notification admissions decisions sent to some Hotel and ILR
applicants” in Early March on Cornell’s CAAAN Calendar? Does anyone know how many of these early notifications are usually given or if it’s going to show up in the portal? https://caaan.admissions.cornell.edu/CAAANCalendar.pdf
Interesting Link. Wondering the same thing as I’m an ILR applicant @crowningflowers
I’m a Hotel applicant! I saw people talking about the CAAAN Calendar for the decision release date but nobody ever mentioned the early notification on the calendar. I wonder how it works. :-? @phsstudent17
Well thanks for posting the link—I hadn’t seen it before. My CAAAN Interviewer didn’t mention anything about it, but he was fairly private, in general. All I know is that on last year’s RD threads some knew about the 1st week of March, others seemed to know about 10 days later.
I thought all decisions come out together on Apr 1st?
Other than making the deposit, is there anything else Cornell requires of ED accepted students?
What is the next step?
@superdomestique I wondered the same thing and asked around. You should have received a basic letter and rather lame welcome envelope a couple months ago (I know, I forgot about it too). In there it plainly says that the next step is we’ll all get a lot more mail and email starting in April. I don’t think anything else is going to happen until RD decisions come out.
To those who were deferred from Cornell: don’t give up! My son, who is now a freshman at Cornell, applied ED for the class of 2020, and was deferred. He was ultimately accepted into the Class of 2020 during the regular decision round. Make sure to submit updated grades from your high school and any awards/achievements you may have received after ED.
Does anybody know what time the Ivy League will release their decisions?
@doglover1234 March 30th around 5pm is what I’ve been hearing
My Daughter.
Sorry…she was deferred, not accepted yet.
@HerBigRedDad1 Good luck to your daughter! It is nerve-wracking, I know.
GOT IN!!! ENgineering
sorry wrong thread, meant to post it in the rd one
Hi - Does anyone know if you are put on the ILR waitlist and wait it out and if a spot doesn’t open up are you automatically offered a guaranteed transfer option to Cornell? I read in the past that is what ILR did, but do they still in 2017?
Have to agree the waiting process was a bit maddening - found out our daughter got into ILR with a letter in February - but she did not want to know anything until after the HS Musical she was in was done on 3/25, so I hid the letter… and then they called her on the way to rehearsal one night - “Hi, no, I didn’t get any letter…is this a prank call?”.
I gather your daughter applied ED, I am actually wondering for RD if put on waitlist and a spot doesn’t open, does Cornell offer you a guaranteed transfer option for the following year. If not it doesn’t really make any sense to me, in theory if a spot opens up and if you are on waitlist it means you are qualified and ready to start immediately (basically means there wasn’t enough space but if there was they would have admitted you)…the GT decisions that students have received instead of being put on waitlist, implies Cornell wants a years worth of college grades completed before you can be admitted…so if a waitlist doesn’t create a spot, why would those students not get the GT option…this is hard to explain, but does anyone know?
No, she was RD. This College App stuff has begun to resemble something out of PsyOps. Must have been devised by someone from Yale. I wouldn’t take any of it too seriously. MK Ultra by any other name… would be as… big as Big Pharma? No doubt. Good luck to all.
Your D applied RD in January 2017? Then are you saying she was notified in February that she was accepted (or put on waiting list) before the official release date of decisions in March? Even so what does that have to do with the question I asked? Also, no offense but can you decode your previous post, I have absolutely no idea the point you are trying to make…except to rub it that we shouldn’t take this too seriously after your daughter was admitted already…I am new to these boards, but if this is support, I don’t think I will be back…
