<p>is getting a small envelope as oppose to a large packet mean that cornell has rejected you? I've noticed that the college I have been accepted to came with large package with the letter of admission.</p>
<p>Nope, the small envelope just tells you that you're accepted and more information will follow. (This holds true for ED and rolling admissions, at the very least.)</p>
<p>well there is some validity in the envelope theory. the rejection envelope only has one piece of paper, while the acceptance envelope has two</p>
<p>cornells informational mailings were alot fatter than my acceptance. My acceptance consisted of 2 or 3 tri-folded pieces of paper and one "ticket" in a number 10 envelope.</p>
<p>Oh yes, who could forget their "Ticket To Cornell"!</p>
<p>oh i remember now, i was so excited, i mailed that thing out like the hour after i got accepted</p>
<p>does the time in which u turn in your ticket affect your housing?</p>
<p>no.........</p>
<p>No, I think everyone gets the housing forms on the same date. By the time they send the stuff out they should know whether or not you're attending. But there's about 3 questions on the housing so I don't think it makes much of a difference how quickly you hand it in, unless you desperately want a single or to be in the townhouses, ect.</p>
<p>At one of my info sessions, the admissions officer told a story of a boy who called up Cornell crying and screaming, wanting to know why he wasn't accepted. It turns out he received a thin envelope, assumed he was rejected, burned the envelope without opening it, and had really been accepted. So envelope size doesn't mean anything.</p>
<p>wow, what a dumb-ass...they should have rejected him after his whiney performance</p>
<p>that is terrible....</p>
<p>wow what a baby</p>
<p>They should've rescinded his acceptance, then gone to his house and laughed at him. It's what I would've done, anyway.</p>
<p>LOL. thats so incredibly stupid</p>
