Fall 2016 Transfer Thread - Cornell University

@2Brown4MyOwnGood you are a really strong applicant too considering you got into Vanderbilt. Looking at all such strong applicants getting decisions tomorrow makes me really confused.

I honestly think that there is no rejection week tbh… there’s too many strong applicants tomorrow for it to be a rejection week… no way… i mean last week, some people accidently got their decisions and were rejected and after that, their status changed and said that their decision will be out on 4/26. but even then , I think it can go both ways…

@HereToTransferr One can only hope. lol…only one way to find out - gotta wait :stuck_out_tongue:

@transferind97 hahaha thanks but no need to worry yo! Last Tuesday there were still some rejections - I think someone’s earlier comment about Cornell being backlogged throws the traditional rejection-day thing out the window. We’ll find out soon enough!

i’m not going to lie though and be realistic… for ilr, if you didn’t get a phone call… it’s looking pretty grim… for many years, those were accepted got a phone call…

Why does everyone think it’s a rejection week?

In previous years, rejection week was around 4/21 so people think that this week is rejection week. If you look at the old threads, decisions that came out on near the end of april were rejections for CALS, ILR and CAS except CHE which I dont think really follows the pattern that much looking at the old threads.

@HereToTransferr looking at last years thread, it seems that most ILR applicants got in around 4/21

devastating

yea honestly i wouldnt worry too much about this “rejection week”. But im still going to stand strong about ilr and phone call however… if u didnt get a phone call about ur decision, it’s a little bit eh :confused:

@HereToTransferr Do you think Ian would call an international applicant?

I have no idea tbh.

So I got a call because of a question regarding transcripts, what on earth could this mean?? I had a W and a P on my transcript, but other than that I have no idea what it could be abouat @_@

@HereToTransferr yea being realistic, I feel like for ILR applicants if we didn’t get a phone call, we’re pretty much screwed.

Does Ian call EVERY student that gets accepted into ILR?

Any other engineering applicants getting their decisions tomorrow? If so, what are your majors?

Mine’s ECE

@Transfer97 I still cannot reset my pin. Assume I’m not getting my decision tomorrow. I’m CEE.

@Transferdood I mean, i don’t think he calls every student, so we still have a chance… i’m applying to ILR and i didn’t get a phone call, I’m in the states, so my outlook is pretty grim. You said you’re international so I wouldn’t worry about not getting a phone call

@ibtes96 maybe that means you’ll get accepted
