@theriley106 I did try the pin trick, then an email came in with my son’s freshman application pin (I dug out last year’s notification and yes the pin is same), and a link to reset password; after reset password and logged in, it displays error message saying either pin or password not correct. So when you said pin trick worked for you, did you get the same pin as last year’s pin, or did you get a new pin?
Has anyone else had to fill out an Independent Student Certification Request Form? If so, how long did it take to process?
@zhengfangchen Ah, I see. I did the PIN trick and received 2 emails with a link to reset my old PIN and a new one that I assume was generated this morning. I logged in with my new PIN and it shows that my decision will be released tomorrow morning.
@theriley106 I am not a GT and do not have a decision coming tomorrow. My transcript still says initiated and the pin trick shows no information found. All I can do is hope for the best next week! I truly have no idea if it means anything or not that I do not have a decision tomorrow. I applied January 26th and they received my mid-term reports on April 8th.
@zhengfangchen this means that you are not getting a decision tomorrow. I have the same thing
@zhengfangchen same here - pin trick gives me the same pin from high school, so that means I won’t get the decision tomorrow either. I am a TO for CALS, transcript still says initiated.
Any non-TOs that applied to ILR not receiving a decision tomorrow? Seems like all the non-TO decisions tomorrow are CALS.
I thought the pin trick doesn’t work for ppl who have applied to cornell previously? Or does it definitely mean we won’t be getting a decision tomorrow?
@theriley106 thank you for the info, best wishes to your tomorrow’s decision. But I still feel Cornell shall send official emails to notify applicants that the decision is ready to view, they won’t expect everybody uses this pin trick to view their decision right? @grundeis yeah, we submitted our application late, exactly on the deadline of 3/15, and midterm report was uploaded on 3/29. If they review on rolling basis then my son’s application is probably still queued for review.
@charletterp one of my profs is behind on midterm grades so I didn’t submit it until I called today and let them know that I would be submitting an incomplete one today…
@enviscimath11 I’m still missing a supplement from idoc, not sure how significant it is but i guess this isnt looking too good for me?
According to this thread, we ILR applicants seemed to have a very good chance of getting in! http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/cornell-university/1706025-cornell-2015-fall-transfer-thread-p127.html
@brianlau7 my pin trick did work, it just sent me two emails (one with last year’s pin and one with this year’s). As it did work I know I’m getting my decision tomorrow morning. Did it work for you?
Can anyone confirm that there is no one on CC who is in CAS with pin trick working and FA status as “ordered”?
@onebfi didnt try cause i applied last year so i wasnt sure how that would work out LOL so iguess im just hoping my decision releases tmrw morning as well!
@brianlau7 even if you applied last year, the pin trick works. Click on “forgot password”. If you receive one email, you’re not getting a decision. If you receive two emails from Cornell, you are getting a decision tomorrow
Wonder if the decisions tomorrow will be largely rejects. I submitted my application near the deadline and my decision will be available tomorrow so not too hopeful lol
Just checked my FA portal and everything still says initiated but a lot more items popped up since I checked a couple hours ago… They include “ISIR Comment Code 401”, “ISIR Reject 15” and 2 others with due dates in May!
If its all “initiated” is it still bad news? Also got an email from Ian saying that they will try to be lenient with my midterm grade report. What does this all mean??
“ISIR Reject 15”
Probably a rejection code.
@whostolemycookie Not sure if this is helpful, but I’m an ILR non-TO applicant and my finaid portal is the same (None of the new stuff added). Were you a TO applicant?
it says im missing parents signature on fafsa which a fafsa agent confirmed today. but i guess this all points to a rejection haha
