Tried pin trick and it didn’t work. I’m a regular transfer student from a community college applying to college of engineering. Fin aid checklist is complete except for transcript, which is still at initialized. I guess this means there is still hope.
Hi Can anyone tell me how to do the pin trick? I applied to ILR.
I still haven’t submitted my mid-term report since my school started the semester very late. Any chance I’ll get rejected right away?
Edit: On the phone with Ian right now and to quote him, “Decisions will be out tomorrow on a rolling basis”!

@kcasssuu Why do you think that means rejection?
Getting my decision tomorrow as a non-GT transcript-initiated ILR applicant from a NY cc, posting stats here and please chance me!

Please share some feedback with me I’m sort of freaking out right now. Good luck to everyone you guys all deserve an acceptance letter!
@yanlaodun911 Great job, those are nice stats! I’d say you have an excellent shot.
@yanlaodun911 how did you already get your Columbia accepted decision? Columbia hasn’t come out yet?
@yanlaodun911 I’m also a non-GT ILR applicant. You shouldn’t freak out. You’ve already been accepted to some great schools and your stats look awesome. I would’ve said high school may be a bit of an issue but it seems to not really have hurt your application. Great work 
@yanlaodun911 Question though, I also applied to UVA and decisions are supposed to start releasing this Thursday if I’m not mistaken. Did I miss a wave earlier?
uva has not come out yet and Iam guaranteed transfer to UVA
Thanks very much for the feedback! But I already applied twice(high school regular and last year) for Dyson, Cornell probably doesn’t like me so much…
pin trick worked! Tomorrow 10am…but I guess my chances are very slim since Ian sounded very concerned when my mid-term report wasnt turned in yet and said to do so ASAP… any ideas?
@whostolemycookie check the status of your transfer transcript in your finaid to do list
@charletterp if you didn’t apply for finaid, then yeah there’s no checklist for you
@grundeis I received the welcome packet on Thursday in my mail box, I haven’t receive the acceptance email nor can I view it on the portal…hopefully they were not making any mistakes! BTW I had a 2-hour long interview with an alumnus earlier this month, maybe that helped? have no idea…
@enviscimath11 it still says initiated but I’ve been having trouble with submitting my FA documents lately. Does this mean bad news?
@whostolemycookie Did you submit your mid-term report?
@whostolemycookie if you still have finaid supplements that you were supposed to submit but will view your decision tmrw, then it doesn’t sound good 
@yanlaodun911 Are you a guaranteed transfer option to Columbia? Where are you applying from and what were your Columbia results in previous iterations?
Here are my stats.
GPA: 4.0
Credits: 88 completed, taking 23 (yea, I know)
Graduating community college with double major in computer science and mechanical engineering.
I’m a bit weak on extracurriculars, but I have tutored in the tutoring center for the last year.
1430 new SAT
I’m a legacy student as well.
I’ve been accepted to RPI, Union College and UMass Amherst honors college, still wailing on Northeastern and Boston University, and of course Cornell, my first choice. I know my SATs are a bit low for Cornell, but I’m hoping my GPA, double major and legacy status makes up the difference, fingers crossed!
@charletterp Thanks for the feedback, I really hope that Cornell cares more about my college performance than my high school tragedy hahaha. As for UVA I applied last year and accepted for the Spring term, but due to some issues it wasn’t advisable for me to move to Virginia, so I had discussions with them about the issues I had and was granted admission for the Fall term as long as my GPA is at certain level.
