Not sure but I thought there were items before.
Is this happening to those who saw status update??
Yeah its happened to a couple of us. My date changed on 11/18 and they were gone
I didn't have a date change and mine are gone.

That was my guess. This speculation was just fueled based on what happened with the boxes for Georgetown

What happened with GTown? I don't have any boxes on mine.

It was many moons ago, right before the first wave of acceptances.
Boxes briefly appeared and then vanished. Those who had the boxes during that brief window were accepted shortly thereafter.

Any guesses on when applicants will start going UR?

I don't have any requirement boxes on mine either, and it says "complete and ready for review." I really don't think I ever remember seeing boxes.

When I saw that on the status checker I was really hoping that April was a super late estimate. I don't think I can wait that long =(

+1 anyone else who saw the change?
and for those who saw the update how is your expectation regarding the decision considering your numbers?

Date change today, went complete mid-november

benwyatt · Post by **benwyatt** » Wed Nov 25, 2015 1:06 pm

I had a date change as well.
Not sure what to make of them considering there's a new dean. They may be using the status checker differently this year.

BertYoo · Post by **BertYoo** » Wed Nov 25, 2015 1:08 pm

probably going to still obsessively check, but agreed, not expecting or trying to read into the date changes for cornell

Apparently, at UT last year applicants didn't place much significance on date changes in the status checker either.

"Complete email over the weekend. Sitting tight until the decision since the status checker is useless."

"Don't worry, the status checker is worthless anyway."

For the record tons and tons of movement on December 9th there.

Forgive me if I'm missing something, but I'm not sure what UTs status checker has to do with Cornell's...

ETA: nevermind, I googled her.

the new dean of admissions for Cornell was the old dean for UT (i think!)

Probably not.
No way of knowing.

Anyone with a prime number of status changes by the first day of December will be admitted by the end of the year.

Status change two days ago for me....

I thought Cornell needed a separate essay for applicants seeking a public interest scholarship. But now I am browsing around and not finding anything. Maybe I am thinking of a different school....hmm....anyone care to enlighten me?
