@socoutmia congrats! When did you submit your application?
Thank you!!! To be honest maybe around the 17th? @StillWaitingHere he did tell me they had reviewed my application today so at least for the ILR it’s safe to say that admissions are rolling not just the notifications!
Rejected from CALS.
@AimHighandFight I think that is the case. I believe the top applicants will get in first (a couple of weeks ago) and then most of the rejections will occur now/next week. So it makes sense that they are doing in order of when the application was ready for review & if others who got their application ready after you are getting their decision…then it MUST mean that they are not quite done with yours because they don’t know yet your decision.
I think this is why most applicants will get their decisions Mid-May. There are a lot of great applicants and they have limited spaces so I am sure they go over everything a couple times because it is hard to make a decision, there are so many qualified people.
I think that is why. My app was sent for review in Mid-March and I haven’t received anything yet either
Thanks guys!
@ibtes96 My application was sent in for review like 2 weeks ago, my mid-term report and college report got sent in kinda late, and my major is ECE
@AimHighandFight Yeah just like the other person said, I’m a regular applicant who applied for junior standing
Also got a call from Ian and admitted to ILR! Very surprised and relieved – especially after ucla’s rejection on friday #phew
@hp2trnsfr Thanks! Nope just a regular transfer!
@sabribri070 Congratulations on your acceptance! Which major did you apply to and do you mind sharing your stats? I am also applying to CAS
College Stats:
Major: undecided
GPA: 3.8
EC:
Member of the pre-health society, literary magazine, an affinity group, and an online college fashion magazine. I own an etsy store where I sell screen printed t-shirts and I also volunteer weekly at a local hospital.
High School:
GPA: 3.7 unweighted
No APs (school didn’t offer them)
ACT: 30
Honestly I feel like the fact that I am hispanic and that I’m coming from a women’s college are what helped!
@sabribri070 Thank you for sharing!
@sabribri070 You earned it! So happy for you : )
I got rejected… chemical engineer in college of engineering… what’s your stats @bing101
I’m still unable to reset the pin… did you guys get like an email beforehand about getting the decision?
Hey @bing101 & @bvo112: when did you submit your applications? I submitted mine for CS (engineering) on the 14th of March (yes, cutting it close) and I’m still anxiously awaiting a decision.
Regular applicant
For every ILR applicant:
I’m pretty sure I figured out a way to tell your decision before it’s officially given to you. So, @MikeSauce established that decisions are rolling. This means if you get accepted they tell you generally close to the time they make that decision (same day). It’s also established that there’s a roster of people that people with completed decisions get put on to be notified of that decision the next day.
I believe that if you have not received a call from Ian confirming your acceptance, but you can still reset your pin and there’s no call the beginning of the next day either, then you’re rejected. If you have not received a call and you cannot reset your pin, a decision has not been made. If you receive a call clearly you’re accepted. I hope this can help assuage some of the waiting pains of current and future applicants.
@brycifer we established that conjecture before based on the years before and i think it’s pretty true now
Well no one explicitly has stated it as a guide to how this works. Everyone is still trying to nitpick at every detail to figure out if X means admission or if this does and that does. This was posted as a definitive guide to the quickest way of knowing one’s decision. If this was previously stated as I have stated it, there wouldn’t be any worry over “oh I can’t reset my pin I probably got rejected” or “I can login to housing I’m accepted maybe,” etc. This isn’t for you or for me or anyone in this thread (at this point), really. It’s for the future applicants - a single post they can go back to that summarizes the procedures of ILR admissions and how to play the game well. @HereToTransferr
Congratulations to all acceptees.
you guys… there is no right or wrong!! Although Cornell and its schools are one, each school has different ways of handling the admissions process!!
