Sorry, but they are being bigger jerks for only giving me 5 days after giving scholarship info to make a decision.

Can't you just make an "if I get this much money I'm going, if not I'm headed somewhere else" decision? That seems easier than all this freaking out.

Sure, but I am also interested in scholarship matching programs so that is why I am worried. I wasn't trying to cause a fight here, just let people still waiting know that Cornell's office isn't the most diligent out there (yet they are still extremely nice lol).

I called last Wednesday and they emailed me my letter within a few minutes. Unfortuntely, I received $0.00 in scholarship assistance. I sent in my withdrawal email today, so good luck to everyone still waiting to hear back!

After all of that I only got $60k. I would expect more, but only because Duke offered me the same amount.

EDIT: Sorry for being grumpy :shock: I wish you all luck and hope my spot goes to good use.

If thats how you feel. I just honestly thought that they would be close to my Duke scholarship, but I was wrong. It just reaffirms my feeling that Duke is really treating me well.

Why is Cornell taking this long though, its the last school on the list, I need to know if I'm accepted or not because right now my choice is between Fordham and Cornell basically.
