<p>Sorry to disprove your theory, but I got in.</p>
<p>No rej/WLs yet. Three more schools left :D.</p>
<p>And why do they deny the practice? Honestly, I can't say that I want to go to CMU so much anymore...</p>
<p>I'm in the rejected batch for Cornell's "hour theory"</p>
<p>.. I LOVE THIS GAME! LET'S PLAY AGAIN SOON!</p>
<p>al62, don't and give me your spot? lol</p>
<p>but what for though? wait for agony? i don't agree on this one...</p>
<p>I'm going to deny the waitlist so that one of you fine people can have my spot, if you still want it. This is such a disappointment, not for me, but for the school and admissions process.</p>
<p>I LOVE the Cornell conspiracy theory! YES!
Seriously, this conspiracy theory gave me hope of acceptance at Cornell!!!</p>
<p>Yeah... I don't want to go to a school that blatantly lies to its potential students.</p>
<p>I paid the same fee for my application as did those who got in - I deserve to be treated the same way. If they insist on doing this, they should send us a refund on the application fee.</p>
<p>mmm, I am not really sure what I am going to do now, I'm kinda that leet computer kids that writes programs for FUN...CMU was like..the thing for me, the only other school i got going for me is BU and Rutgers...</p>
<p>what's cornell's theory?</p>
<p>The emails detailing the instructions for getting results on the 31st were emailed at different times.</p>
<p>The primary times were between 1 and 2 (these are the accepts, at least according to the theory), between 2 and 3 (the waitlists or the rejects), and at 12 PM. (whichever one the 2-3 one is not)</p>
<p>I got mine at 2:38, which is either a reject or a waitlist. Considering my past performance (2 waitlists, including this, and a rejection from NYU), I think this theory might be accurate as well.</p>
<p>The ONLY reason I could see for any of this is like...Its monday...they need to get their stuff out....and they know its going to take 5 days to process all of it...so get the good news out first??</p>
<p>Rejected :( kinda sad that the whole theory turned out true I suppose.</p>
<p>o.o I dont quite get what you mean by the 12pm time, i got my cornell letter at: Tue 3/25/08 12:41 PM</p>
<p>bah, probably rejects, Cornell was a HUGE stretch for me...</p>
<p>Waitlisted...this is sad :-(, atleast JHU wants me!!</p>
<p>I meant at the 12PM hour. (which includes your time)</p>
<p>so.. for the waitlisters.. when do we get a final decision?</p>
<p>until cmu tells you you are off the list...</p>
<p>so hopefully tomorrow.. lol</p>
<p>It'll probably say on the letter we get. (probably on Monday)</p>
<p>Meh, I'm throwing it in the garbage as soon as I see it. I'd be willing to risk waiting on the waitlist for an excellent college; not for one that lies to its students.</p>
<p>my status is still blank..</p>
