Cornell c/o 18 Applicants Forum

[WeeBey]

Got super excited when I got some mail from Cornell, especially with the size of it. Sadly, it was just the view book sent last week.

[WeeBey]

Tuition for 2014/15 was $59k. Cornell is gonna cross the $60k mark for 2015/16. Thats fucking nuts.

Checking in.

Do you guys know how much, if any, boost the Early Action or whatever is called has on your app?

It gives a boost, but it also leaves you paying sticker and graduating with $300k in debt.

Checking in. Applied ED, really hoping that it's enough to pull me through.

Good luck!

So for Cornell they ask why the interest in 2-3 short sentences, should we also submit an addendum for why Cornell?

Just write the 3 sentences unless you've got some really compelling reasons you want to come here.

Sweet, thank you!

I'm visiting next week. Do you think it's worth asking if Cornell will cover travel costs, or is that laughable?

Pretty laughable.

At least, I'm laughing.

Yea I talked to someone at admissions yesterday. She said they're going on break Nov 24, so ED decisions will be in by then.

Correction: Dec 24*.

Super sorry.

At present, it says "ANSWER THIS."

lol

That's awkward.

I guess send an addendum. Probably better than the adcomm seeing "ANSWER THIS" and laughing at you for just plain forgetting.

My SC got updated for the 2nd time today after getting updated once on 11/13. Went complete in early October. Is Cornell like Mich with updates as well?

Just had my first date change. Went complete in late September, now showing complete with today's date.

Did you apply RD or ED? I applied RD, went complete late October, and still no date change. Only been a few weeks so not exactly alarmed.

RD. Looks like there wasn't much of a pattern to the date changes last year.

[supersplittysplitter]

it says i'm complete but the "dean's certification" box is unchecked, and i know i sent one. does this mean i'm not really complete?

will they not review my application until that box is checked? my last status date is 11/8, although it says on the status checker i got my complete email on 11/11, so it's also weird that my last status date isn't 11/11

Hopefully decisions come out soon! they came out today last year

[LoganCouture]

I thought some decisions would come out today but it looks like we'll be waiting until Mon/Tues at the earliest.

[90convoy]

Darn because Cornell is likely my best bet if accepted

[Mmmzai]

I think they followed last year's trend. I was accepted today at around 16:00 from an e-mail from Associate Dean Richard D. Geiger.
Anyways, I hope y'all hear favourable results soon!

[90convoy]

when did you apply?
