Official Cornell Class of 2019 Regular Decision Applicants!!!!!

You’re asking this on the 22nd?

But you can submit the tax return after the deadline AS SOON AS IT IS COMPLETE. The only drawback is you probably won’t hear back until after Ivy Day.

Yo if possible can someone answer the first part of @cakeandtears‌ question?

Uh, so I never got a Cornell interview. #awkward

^never got one either, and I applied ED #awkward

@cakeandtears‌ @Zenithar143‌ We’ll probably never know. I searched all over and it seems like Cornell doesn’t release stats for that.

Heck, I don’t even think they released the number of ED apps they got! They’re like the only ivy that didn’t.

Facts

So btw speaking of interviews I got emailed by some dude asking me if I wanted to interview. I emailed him back like a week later saying I’d love to be interviewed, and it’s been like a month and he hasn’t gotten back to me. Now I know it’s just informational, so idrc, but at the same time, I’m worried that ILR’s gonna be like “Whoa he was offered an interview and didn’t take it?” which kinda worries me. Should I contact Cornell or just chill? Again, it was like a month ago.

^probs should have contacted Cornell two weeks ago…

^this lol

I wasn’t offered an interview either, but I’m in NYC so I wasn’t expecting one really

@jamesjunkers yea you’re probably right :o3

Eh whatever, yolo

@zenithar143, my D, who applied ED, was contacted by a CAAAN volunteer for an informative interview, and she replied right away to him that she would like to set up a date/tiime, and he never got back to her at all. So thinking the reply might have gone to his spam, she called on the number he provided in the email and she still never heard back. Oh well, she got accepted ED anyway.

I never got one either, and I applied ED #awkward?

I am curious about the financial aid application process. Does the admission office communicate to the Financial Aid office? Will Financial Aid office process all the applications, or will it wait for a notice from the Admission Office?

In other words, if all the required documents on the Financial Aid -to-do list on the portal were received/processed, does it mean that the applicant has a better chance to be admitted? Personally I assume that there is no need for the Financial Aid Office to process all applicants’ files. Any thoughts?

Cornell is need blind
Financial aid is completely separate from admissions
Financial aid is calculated for all applicants, regardless of merit

Those who submitted supplemental materials, is it showing up on your online application portal?

Is it true that if you applied RD to ILR and do not receive an acceptance sometime next week or the next two weeks, you will most likely receive a rejection when all the decisions come out in late March?

Had an interview over the phone that was said to last “only about 15 minutes” (lasted probably 20 in the end). I just thought it was really weird to be so short and on the phone because the guy lives in my town of only like 20,000 people (and he was the first person I’ve met to have graduated from ANY Ivy). We could’ve just met up at Starbucks or something…

Oh well, it did relieve some stress and it went pretty well for what it was.

@isl4ndsurf3r where did you hear that? I thought all decisions were released at the same time?

@isl4ndsurf3r‌ @writeallnight‌ Cornell ILR releases a few early acceptances. If you don’t receive one early, don’t worry. Most don’t come until Ivy Day (March 31st)
