confused.

<p>i read that CALS sends out the rolling decisions before march 15th. so why did my friend get a decision from cornell for CAS today?</p>

<p>Are you sure your friend got an actual acceptance letter or did he/she get a likely letter?</p>

<p>he just said he was accepted to Cornell.</p>

<p>If it was for Arts & Sciences, it’s likely he received something like this:</p>

<p><a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/cornell-university/880262-likely-letter.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/cornell-university/880262-likely-letter.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p><a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/cornell-university/881550-cornell.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/cornell-university/881550-cornell.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>hmm maybe. would internatioanl students that live in the US hear back early? or would those students have to wait until April 31st?</p>

<p>I mean April 1st</p>

<p>The likely letters tend to target minorities, so this could be quite likely to occur if your friend is an international student.</p>

<p>well he’s asian. not even really a minority right?</p>
