No way to know. One school might have more applications to go through than the other, one school might have take a different/longer approach to going through the applications.

if you're waiting for cornell, just be patient. you'll find out soon enough.

Here's my theory:

Loyola: Screw this dirt poor applicant. Waitlist.
This may be true lol
Cornell: We like poor people with a story. Waitlist.
This I don't know. There are many Asians at Cornell. Too many. Especially women.

South Asians are more under represented though so maybe you will be looked at differently than Chinese.
