I put my dog on my stomach for a while, now I'm good.

Wow, this thread just gained like 8 pages since I last checked. Can anyone recap what's going on? Has anyone been accepted yet, or does it appear that they're just sending deferrals? :?

only deferrals have be stated on TLS. However, there are people who received deferral notices in CA and others who haven't closer to Cornell, which could lend to the hypothesis that some of the decisions are acceptances in bigger envelopes that take longer to make their way through the postal system.

There is one acceptance on LSN, while I really want to believe it, it is the general consensus that the person is a flame who has nothing better to do than make up fake acceptances... :| I want it to be real!

so, overall, we know nothing. But it was a fun afternoon :D

veritas. "fun" doesn't cut it. Also, it wasn't an afternoon, it was more like a whole day. lol.

I'm excited about this thread tomorrow morning. That is going to be fun.

I was deferred too. Not a surprise giving that im below both 25ths.

Is the consensus to send LOCI? or after a waitlist asuming not rejected.

Thanks for the update! Let's hope this week brings good news. I have a feeling the first two weeks of December are going to be very, very busy.

Isn't that their median GPA and 75% LSAT?

Just got back from Thanksgiving break to find a deferral in my mailbox.

GPA at median, LSAT well-over 75th. WTF?

That seems to be par for the course this time. We haven't heard of concrete accepts yet, so don't know what numbers they are cutting off at - just that about everyone who has heard so far has been deferred, many with numbers like yours...

Hard to say, because these aren't 174/3.8's being deferred - more like border-in, or a bit over border/in type numbers. It could be they have gotten so many good aps they will try to bump their numbers a bit, or just need to wait and see on anything that's not an autoadmit.

But until we see some accepts/denies we can call YP yet I don't think.

Yeah, so I was a little surprised.

so to everyone who has been deferred- have all your status checkers been updated prior to receiving the letter?

I'm interested as to the reason for the random reception of letters geographically.

Did Cornell accept anyone yet? If so, what are their stats?

Not that we have confirmed here.
