Anyone who went into review 6/2 hear anything since then?

I was placed on the summer waitlist off reserve. Not sure what 'summer waitlist' means, if anything different than just...waitlist.

167/3.82

*shrug* whatever, add it to the list of five bazillion waitlists I guess.

Did you just get the email? And to all of those that have received responses, were they all sent in the a.m. or in the afternoon? It would help my sanity to not incessantly check my email every 30 seconds...

I just figured out how to get a text message whenever I get an email regarding Cornell

Do you use gmail?
You just have to set up a forwarding address to your mobile number's email address (--LinkRemoved--), then you can set up a filter to forward all emails to that address that contains 'Cornell'.

You've already interviewed?

I don't want to sound rude or anything, but why would a second one make any difference?

[gsat]

Any end of day movement to report from those who went under review on 06/02?

[Mr. December]

In off the reserve today. 167/3.78. Very surprised.

Congrats!! I was just looking at your LSN TLS Stats Page lol.

A nice surprise. Congrats.

Are interviews for people on the waitlist over the phone or in person?

[Kabuo]

All of these 167/168s getting in are making me depressed about my chances.

[MillerTime]

I just checked my status and my application has been "withdrawn." I did not receive an email informing me. I was placed on reserve 3/29 and had a 3.4/169. Good luck to everyone still waiting!

[SherlockHolmes]

Looks like I have been withdrawn as well. Good luck to all of those still waiting!

[CanadianWolf]

What does that mean ? Involuntarily withdrawn ?

Its certainly surprising given that mine was the first in the batch (or so it seems). But theres no real difference between our apps numbers wise as far as cornell is concerned, and holistic wise I didn't have an academic rec and had a downward grade trend, nor did I express a specific interest in Cornell. I have to think youll get in eventually and I'm certainly rooting for you.

I will note that they do not seem to be in a rush at all. When I was let in they gave me two days to decide if I wanted to explore attending (ie go through the finaid process etc. etc.) and THEN decide if I wanted to commit.

Thanks, and that's what I think too considering I have an upward trend and 2 academic recs, plus an expressed interest. It's just been so long and it seems like everyone getting in is a reverse splitter or below both medians (think I saw a 167/3.5)

[Bela]

Just FYI - my fiance was in the 6/2 batch then updated to 6/8 then got his decision this morning.

[mrwarre85]

I was wait list from reserve. Under both medians with a re-take pending.

Cornell must take the holistic approach thing seriously, as I'm sure other top schools do.
