Cornell c/o 2016 Applicants (2012-2013) Forum

[LLLPLLL]

But LLLPLLL, read it again. It says you're certifying that you've withdrawn from all other schools to which you have been admitted. You don't have to withdraw from any waitlists if you don't want to.

I could be wrong, but I think they're simply asking us to withdraw from ALL the schools to which we applied? So that they'll know by April 1st whether to take back the $$ and give it to someone who's more likely to attend?

I'm 100% sure about this. The language is very clear (unless yours says something different lol). In fact, if they did ask you to withdraw from all schools, they'd be in conflict with LSAC's own rules. You can read Yale Admissions Dean Asha's take on it here. Of course, you can always call and ask Cornell about it if you're not sure.

I have no intention of withdrawing from Chicago's (or anyone else's) waitlist, although I will be sure to withdraw from all schools to which I've been admitted.

Oh thanks alot! That's even better news!!!

Yeah, it sounds like 4-6 weeks is the standard wait to go complete.

[UselessKnowledge]

Cornell seems like a great deal for so many. easier to get in than other T-14s and yet better or equal employment to many and small class sizes.

1+ Like I said, top choice

Mine too. If I get in, I'll be so stoked!

UCR2 today...

Anyone else? Any time line here?

Had my first date change since going complete today. I submitted 1/3, went complete 2/1.

Same for me, submitted 1/7, complete 2/1, movement on 2/28

For others who interviewed...

In the email it said to expect a decision within a week of the interview, but mine was last Wednesday and I have yet to hear anything. Should I just wait for them, or is this a cause for concern? I suspect the answer is the former.

[drive4showLSAT4dough]

Just got the "we are emailing you because we are reviewing you application" email. Anybody respond to this? What, if anything, should I say to convey that I'm serious about Cornell.

Nothing

[Homelandsagreatshow]

Yeah, I got it too. Just an automated update email.

[LRGhost]

Same.

[Ned Racine]

Got the "we haven't forgotten about you" email just now as well. I'm going to forgo replying, especially since the message isn't signed with a name.

I remember a wave of these emails being sent out a while ago.

Did those who received that email weeks ago get a decision? What's the time frame ?

When I got that email I think i got in around ten days later.

UR3 just now!

Submitted in early December.

[SAlpha]

I receive the "we're currently reviewing your app" email exactly a week ago and haven't heard anything. That 10 day wait you had would be pretty sweet though. Does anyone else remember how long it took them from the initial review email to receiving their decision?

[CMHCLT]

Today is 14 days from receiving this email. no word yet.

[LRGhost]

I think they just send it out whenever people have their first UR update?

Did you get this email before going ur 2?

[ks2499]

I never received this email (was held after 3 updates in December).

[syd625]

Did anyone get a "we hope to reach your file in the coming weeks" email?

Was immediately after, but I'm not sure if this is UR1 or 2 for me.

[romanticegotist]

yeah got one today...small comfort, eh?

I think I was overly hopeful before the email. My reaction was more like, "Wait, no one's even looked at it yet?! "

[VeeD101]

anyone hear anything back since their 3rd complete date of 2/22 (i.e. 2nd UR date)?
