** CORNELL AAP THREAD **

<p>Yo comment if your applying to Cornell AAP! Art? Arch? Urban Planning? </p>

<p>Applying ED for architecture. I don’t know how I’m going to make it through this next month, the wait is killing me!</p>

<p>@designdreamer‌ nice! December 15th is when you find out??? Im applying for arch RD! </p>

<p>@thegrant Yea, somewhere around then! I’m thinking around December 13th maybe, but I’m not completely sure. Good luck to you and everyone else!</p>

<p>Hi its night to meet you :smiley: Applied ED for Architecture</p>

<p>@Terminatio‌ cool! just wondering, how many pieces did you have in your portfolio??? I’m sending mine soon soon so im getting nervous </p>

<p>@thegrant I’m not too sure but i think i hit 20 pieces :open_mouth: </p>

<p>@Terminatio‌ oh my god 20 pieces I have like 14… I’ve seen so many portfolios that people posted on college confidential and its so much better than mine. Do you know any other schools that i should apply to??? </p>

<p>Applying for architecture regular decision. Super nervous because I’m still finishing like five pieces for my portfolio and I don’t have my alumni interview until December 19th. Oh well, I hope that my ‘creative vision’ shines through!</p>

<p>@silverarch‌ I remember last year ther was a solid amount of kids applying to AAP from CC, im thinking theres a lot less this year! </p>

<p>Haha, yeah, I can only hope. In the info session I went to at Cornell, they said the regular decision admit rate last year was 7%. I’m also applying to the arch school at cooper union, which has an admit rate of like 2%. I guess that’s why I have safety schools…</p>

<p>@silverarch‌ CMU and NOTRE DAME! lol </p>

<p>@thegrant Cal Poly, Pratt, and my local state school if worse comes to worse for me</p>

<p>@silverarch‌ I was looking at an old Pratt admission decision thread and some kid got denied to Architecture with 2200 SAT, idk how thats even possible(prob couldnt draw maybe???) </p>

<p>@thegrant You don’t even have to submit a portfolio for pratt architecture if you you have at least a 3.7 UW! With my SAT and GPA I’d think I would be an automatic admit. Maybe he showed no passion for architecture in his essay? I don’t know. I’ve heard that Pratt is mostly a mix of brilliant Cooper union rejects and others that put in minimal effort, so that does seem strange that someone like that would be rejected</p>

<p>@silverarch‌ im also applying to Pratt and cooper union! my teachers friend went to pratt for his b arch and i never heard of stories of people getting no sleep for 48 hours at pratt arch yet, though the craziest stories i heard of are from like RISD, AAP, and Cooper lol — btw are you ready for the home test in january??? I think we should just take each prompt and do crazy and trippy stuff to mindblow the admissions people lol </p>

<p>@thegrant Yeah I’m actually currently doing the first year architecture courses at my local university and I already go a lot nights with close to no sleep so it’s probably like that just about everywhere if you’re dedicated. I’m honestly really looking forward to the hometest. I actually do better with abstract prompts than straightforward ones and I took a few philosophy classes in high school so I guess I’m about as ready as I’ll ever be </p>

<p>didnt have a chance to ED arch i RDed arch :DDD exciting</p>

<p>Wait, I thought all ED results were coming out on 12/11?</p>

<p>@irishen16‌ yay!
