Has anyone who applied in late November experienced date changes or an interview request? I went complete 11/24 and it's pure static

I'm in the same boat, though I think this is normal. Cornell is known to be slow and those receiving action now submitted much earlier

Had my second date change today; last one was on 11/18 after going complete in late September. Hopefully not going to get stuck on this one for another month.

Do date changes signify anything important?

Based on how much they've varied both this and last year, they either don't mean much or we haven't figured it out.

Didn't people have date changes the day of the first/only big wave thus far?
IIRC, they did, but not everyone whose date changed got the email.

When should you panic if you haven't seen a date change?

Question: I want to add a "Why Cornell" essay, but there isn't an option for that on the application. Should I add it under "Addenda"?

There's no addendum option for it because there is a section in the application that asks you for a why Cornell in 3 sentences or so. Super condense it and put it there

Congrats!

Thanks! Also does anyone know if there's an official process for withdrawing from Cornell? I sent the admissions office an email stating I was withdrawing and included my name and LSAC number but I'm not sure if that's the correct process.

That's plenty. Watch how quickly they process the withdrawal. Happens all the time.

Same dates for me too… and then another one today 11/22… I feel like that's a lot of date changes, but I haven't heard a peep from them. No interview request or anything… This happening to anyone else?

Same. Exactly the same dates. I guess we're taking this ride together.
