For ED, we were given an account to check our decision on, I’m assuming they will have a similar process for RD. Acceptances are then mailed to applicants
There is a common Ivy decision day in which all Ivy league schools (Cornell included) release decisions. It is usually on or slightly before March 31. No decisions will go out before then. Exceptions include specific Cornell schools (Hotel and ILR, I believe) which sometimes notify applicants earlier.
That would depend entirely on what you’re fit for. For a student who hasn’t taken Calculus nor Physics, it will probably be hard to get into engineering, but they may have a lot of hospitality experience, making them a good fit for the Hotel school. By acceptance rate alone, the Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management (inside CALS) has the lowest acceptance rate (~7%).
I’m not sure if acceptance rates are posted for each school, but if they are, you can Google it just as easily as I could.
