Applied!

[SteelPenguin]

Checking in! Ready to submit Is a why essay preferred by Cornell?

Last year I think they just had a small part of their application where you could write a few sentences about your interest in Cornell. I wouldn't worry about it too much, but I'd take the time to fill it out.

Applied!

Me too as of November 7. I hope it works out...I'd love to consider 3 years in sunny Ithaca

I'm a current 1L at CLS right now who turned down two T5s for Cornell. It is truly an awesome place with awesome people and everything said in the OP minus the striked portion is true.

lol, guinness is a 2L, bro.

Anyway, I like it.

It's a decent place with some chill people. And I am a 2LBro

[Yea All Right]

Hey all, Cornell 1L here. Thought I'd stop by and post a few pictures of the gorge outside the law school to stir up some interest, yea Ithaca's gonna get real cold soon but as you can see the fall scenery has been great. Good luck with admissions everyone

I went complete on 10/31 and mine still says complete and 10/31

I applied ED btw. this is my second app complete update.

1) received 11/03/14,

2) first application complete update 11/05/14,

3) second application complete update 11/11/14.

From prior lurksearch, I take it there is no standard number of updates that come before each decision - so it could come as early as tomorrow, or as late as mid December.


Also, I called the admissions office on Monday and was told that several committee members were "out of town" or "on vacation". This might be why decisions are taking a minute for some.

are you RD, wary? taptap?

Okay. I think that might be the reason why I'm getting my updates a bit more frequently. I will pm you guys as soon as I get my final decision email.

Wish you the best
