<p>Got deferred, anything I can do to improve my chance in CAS. Can I switch to a different school, heard CAS is hardest to get in.</p>
<p>if anything that would work against you. one of the answers on the Cornell website to a FAQ is that it’s not really appropriate to apply to a school because it’ll give you the best chance of getting in. As a matter of fact, it would serve you well to do the opposite and give the admissions office of why you’re a good candidate for the College of Arts and Sciences.</p>
<p>Send new essays, recommendation letters and keep updating your application to show the Commitee that you are still interested in Cornell.</p>
<p>jrcho88…which person should address, the regional rep or the dean of admission? why?</p>
<p>Why i have such worry, because my regional rep seems not approachable as he once called me back and spent only 5 min talking about my application and he always repeatly the same comments…while I know ccers that other reg rep spent 45 min to go thru their application.</p>
<p>if a regional rep spent 45 minutes with each applicant…well, that would add up to over 2 years of continuous talk time spent by the regional representatives, collectively. I find that unlikely to be the normal case. Don’t feel too bad. Besides, you’re probably not going to get that much more information in the next 40 minutes of the conversation, especially if he was repeating stuff after 5…</p>
<p>if you’re sending stuff directly to a person send it to your regional rep as he is “closer” to you. The dean is probably worrying about overall admissions stuff, whereas the regional rep is assigned to deal with people exclusively from your your area.</p>
<p>However, are you sure that all supplemental materials aren’t supposed to be sent to the main admissions address.</p>
