So sad I did not get in, really thought I had a good chance. Good luck to the rest of you regular decision applicants and those who got deferred. Congrats to everyone who got in!!!

@godplshelpme sign into your portal for each school. Most will have a button or link to withdraw application. If you don’t see it, email admissions with your full name and any ID number you were assigned saying you wish to withdraw your application. Do it as soon as you accept Cornell’s offer.

@godplshelpme You have until that January 18 date (I think that is the day the deposit is due) to withdraw your other applications.

@JMHartt I was rejected if that helps, my stats are above but I’ll paste again

Really upset, but congrats to all:(

I was deferred from hotel school as well. Did anyone get into hotel?

We received the letter but there is nothing mentioned about intended major. If we are accepted does this mean we will get the same stream which we have applied for?

@intriguedbyuni The financial aid office sent an email. You need to use your myapp id and login to access it. If you didn’t receive it, then maybe your info wasn’t complete and you should contact the financial aid office.
