Weird thing is people with similar CCN numbers to r6 have gotten acceptances.

4.0 170 and deferred? that's odd...

yeah, i am on the opposite end of you. s/he's got 170+ and the 3.9......i would not imagine you need a 175 and 3.9...that's harvard. i am confused.

wow, now im hoping to get a deferral email.

[Bildungsroman]

Does any school hate their applicants as much as Cornell?

YOU were deferred? Unless they're YPing, this means I'll be deferred at the very best.

Well I suppose I didn't really explain in anyway why I would attend? No connection to the school/area?

This is weird because I see multiple 170/3.8+ acceptances on lawschoolnumbers for this cycle.

Edit: Were you multiple LSAT taker by any chance?

No. TBF, I am a current grad student at a better school and they probably figured I will just stay here. I am also older with kids so maybe they are not convinced in anyway I would move to Ithaca.

[justadude55]

was there a why cornell essay or anything?

can they see you got into michigan?

This is just weird. I've heard from people that Cornell adcomms told people that writing/not writing a Why Cornell essay won't affect admissions.

And I just don't get why you would get deferred. People with comparable numbers have gotten acceptances and Cornell isn't famous for YPing. This is crazy.

[justadude55]

at least we know they're giving answers.

I figure if something is wrong with my app they should just ding me. Also I sent the exact same package to UT and got acceptance + $$. I would have liked to have them as an option, oh well.

Maybe they secretly hate Asians. ORM, you need 175/4.1+ just to get in.

[justadude55]

with ur #'s and urm, u should be at HYS anyway.

I was under the impression that r6 wasn't a URM.

Cornell? Aren't they stereotyped for the opposite?

[Arbiter213]

Does any school hate their applicants as much as Cornell?

Minnesota flashed accepted to people on their status checker and just put them back in review. So yes.

[Deuce]

Seeing people with better #s than me get deferred isn't boding well

[whymeohgodno]

16% Asian population. Maybe they get tons of Asian people applying lololol.

Um, this happened to me today as well. fml.

Applied 10/30. Still processing. Wasn't worth the $12 app fee.
