Haven't seen a thread for Cornell yet, so here we go. Good luck to everyone. Anyone hear anything yet? Anyone under review according to their status checker?

Good luck! I applied EA too. Is there any reason NOT to apply EA, since it's non-binding? I don't know why anybody would apply RD if they're early enough to do EA, unless I'm missing something.

A little off-topic, but wow, is Cornell beautiful or what? Nice picture. Good luck to all the applicants this cycle: I'll be in your shoes next fall. :)

Just submitted my application tonight for EA. A Cornell acceptance would be a great Christmas present.

I don't suppose anyone here has heard about people who took the Sept 2009 LSAT receiving Cornell fee waivers yet?

Submitted on Friday and got the email today saying my app has been received. Applied EA as well. If I get dinged from Chicago this would be a nice consolation.

One of my top choices. Submitted my app on the 17th. They have me listed as "applied" so I guess they are still waiting on the LSDAS materials.

I'll join this waiting room. I like the decor.

Just created my "status checker" user id and password. I opted against using "monkey85" as my user id.

Good luck everyone! I think Ithaca would be awesome.

+1. Pretty sure I won't end up in Ithaca, but you never know...

No. I filled in the three lines provided on the application itself but did not write a separate essay.

There is about 5% chance of me getting an acceptance at this stage, but you never know :shock:

I submitted 3/4 page attachment, I'm bad, but probably not getting in anyway.

Another Cornell ED candidate, checking in.

Just submitted, although LSDAS is holding me up with slow transcript processing. I see no reason why I shouldn't be complete by the 15th, however.

Incidentally, I know that general admissions are rolling -- is the same true of EA and ED? That is to say, will someone who submitted their app on September 1st have an advantage over us end-of-monthers?

For what it's worth, CU is a legitimate reach for me, but not totally out of my grasp; a letter of admission from Cornell would be a wonderful Christmas gift.

Here's hoping we all have a chance to matriculate "far above Cayuga's waters" next fall.

Yep, one page. EA as well, so we'll see.

I thought about it, but between several transcripts, multiple addendums, etc., my file's going to be thick enough as it is. The admissions officers have enough to read from me; I don't want to put them in a foul mood with superfluous materials.

Boo_Pragmatism, I really hope you have no problems getting in; if they give you a hard time, that means I'm totally screwed.

One can only hope. However, given the fact that your username just oozes machismo, I think Cornell would be downright mad not to admit you. Good luck, but I'm sure you won't need it.

Thank you, that's awfully kind. With your numbers and background, I'd be surprised if you were anything less than a lock. Here's hoping lady fortune smiles down on both of us.
