I just want to say that, at least for me, the point was not to derail the thread. I simply was pushing back on a user who was being vindictive against a fellow TLSer who was proud to get into Cornell. I am proud of everyone who strives to reach their goals. I hope you all have an amazing cycle! Now- back to your regularly scheduled broadcast of talking about Cornell Admissions...

I really like Cornell and I know someone who recently started working there and he says he LOVES Ithaca.
I submitted way back in September, interviewed last week, still stuck at "interview requested." Not sure what's up!
If you don't mind sharing, what are your stats?
Not sure if you were referring to me or subpoenacolada, but I got 172/4.02 I'm really hoping the delay is just because my app was submitted later (around the end of October) or something!

ETA: not urm

lol.

. enjoy CLS/NYU!

They might just be yield protecting you.

I hope not! My mind is not 100% made up yet, but I really like the idea of being in a smaller town during law school! I definitely wouldn't write off NYU or Columbia or anything, but at this point in time just thinking about cost of living is giving me a heart attack. Plus I was in Virginia over the weekend (couldn't stop by UVA unfortunately because it was a family trip and I didn't pay for the travel expenses) and I LOOOOOVED the hiking, the nature, the four wheeling (lol). Apparently I'm a small town girl at heart and I think Ithaca and the area around it would be great

I submitted on 10/18 and my status checker still says: "your application is ready for review." Is this normal?

My impression from this thread is that Cornell doesn't use the checker the same way others do - that basically you'll show 'ready for review' until you get an interview or a ding.

I had a date change on my status checker yesterday so maybe there will be some movement soon.

Has anyone gotten an acceptance this week? Was really hoping they wouldn't leave me at "interview requested" for this whole week, I'm losing it over here.

Does Cornell send a physical acceptance letter? I've been in for a few weeks, but nothing physical has been sent to my address.

Submitted around 10/15, but haven't gotten an interview request... should I be concerned?

App has been ready for review since 10/18.

Mine has too, also haven't gotten an interview request. Hopefully we shouldn't be concerned, but I don't really know.

I'm feeling a ding and/or acceptance wave tomorrow. It's been quiet this week and surely they want to get to some people before Thanksgiving. Wishful thinking probably.

You can sign up for Informed Delivery through USPS. They have photos of mail that is coming to your house that day.
