Cornell Class of 2020 Early Decision Discussion

Hey everyone! I just got an account to join this thread. I applied to the SHA and I wanted to ask other future hotelies

  1. how much experience did you/do you have in hospitality? I’m concerned that I didn’t have enough seeing that 90% of applicants do.
  2. what other hospitality programs did you apply to? So far I’ve done MSU and UNLV but I still don’t like any program as much as I like cornells.
  3. why hospitality?
    Thanks guys, I’m excited (//stressed) to be part of this thread!

Does Cornell give likely letters for early decision? I heard from somewhere that they do, and I didn’t receive one. : (

I applied to mech engineering.
My common app essay was about the parallels between art (film in particular) and mathematics… So they’ll probably be wondering why I didn’t apply to CAS ahahahaha.
My Cornell supplement was 10 words about why I want to study engineering / what my passion within engineering is, and a lot of words on why I want to study engineering at Cornell. My common app was prob better then my supplement tbh.

@struggleissoreal
SquadGoals, marchmattness13, litlhoward2468, pipsteri, letmeincollege11, moonstar9869 all applied to SHA. They might be able to help you out. From what I have seen floating around the internet, you are expected to have worked in a service industry for at least a month.

Hi, guys! Like a lot of you, I made an account solely for this thread. Has anyone applied to DEA in HumEc?

Hey, just made an account.
Engineering, BioMed

The number of Engineering Computer Science students is too damn high. :stuck_out_tongue:
One of the reasons why I chose Cornell for ED was because I though Computer Science there wont be very competitive. Clearly I was very very wrong. :stuck_out_tongue:

Is there any parent or person from Cornell class of 2019. I want to ask whether you recieved any likely letter in the ed round. It would be great if someone could answer.
Thanks

Hey ppl
How does Cornell send its acceptance? Do they email it or send a snail mail?

email first @roaringtiger

thanks @Jubilantlearner
Can’t wait to see the result! I’ve always been told that ivy schools are crapshoots for even the top students so I’m just excited about receiving a letter (even an email) itself from Cornell. YOO HOO

Cornell does send likely letters, if that’s your question.

@polyglot05 My parents are from the country I was in and yeah they wanted me to study abroad somewhere for a full year so I chose the motherland

My son did not get a likely letter, he is studying for finals at Cornell today. Try to relax, he was deferred and still got in during RD. :-*

Cornell does send likely letters to RD applicants and doesn’t send to ED applicants.
