Cornell 2011 applicants Forum

[chasgoose]

So i put my vanderbilt seat deposit in the mail at approx. 1pm.... I got the acceptance e-mail from cornell at 3. Two hours too late cornell!!!

I mean Vandy hasn't received it. You could call them and say not to cash your check if you change your mind...

[rjh456]

anyone know how long after the acceptance letter they send schol information? or should it have been in the acceptance letter if i was getting merit aid?

I just got in! Shit now I have no idea what I should do. Frick I wasn't expecting to get in!

Congrats!

Is Richard Geiger still the Dean of Admissions? Need to write my LOCI for reserve!

[cinephile]

Even though the chances of getting in off reserve are probably slight for me, I'm going to send a LOCI and hope for the best. Cornell was my top choice and I suppose I should be pleased that I wasn't outright rejected.

Hey thanks!

gtown is the only t14 i got but i'm pretty happy with it. Who knows what will happen with reserves and/or wait-lists but haha yeah not exactly the expected cycle.

Just got reserve at Cornell and Columbia within about an hour and half of eachother.

Can I ask when you applied to both?

I applied right on the deadline for both schools--so what Feb 1st for Cornell and Feb 15th for Columbia?

If it is your top choice, I would definitely include a statement like, "If admitted, I WILL matriculate and withdraw any other commitments."

I'd write this in there even if it isnt true.. law schools lie to us all the time.. even Cornell staff who have told everyone still waiting on decisions in this thread that theyd have decisions already and they still dont

Don't write an untrue statement in your LOCI.

I'm preferably looking for any anecdotal info, but in the meantime I've found this person a few years ago: http://lawschoolnumbers.com/mccoykn

Just follow the instructions. You need to fill out needacceess (click the link) and the cornell fin aid form (also on the page). You also need to send in your tax return and both of your parents'.
