Cornell Class of 2020 Regular Decision Discussion Thread

@schroscat LOL. How did that happen?? And yeah, just withdraw your application.

@mjstewart1224 I saw the email, say “Wesleyan”, saw “Scholarship”, followed the link…and sent in an application. I’m sleep-deprived…soooo…

-o

@mjstewart1224 I’ve had rehearsals/shows for the past week or so…I need rest…

Wait, hold on: what’s going on with CAS? Is that just 3/31?

Okay Cornell keeps trying me with all these different dates for LL’s and rolling admissions and ivy day. It’s making my ratchet come out.

LL’s came out on 3/14 in 2014 (Friday) and on 3/12 in 2015 (Thursday).
I wonder if Cornell goes by day or date…
This year 3/14 is Monday.
My guess is that LL’s will come out on 11th (this Friday). And 11th is also 2nd Friday in this month.

Do Cornell likelies come via email? Is it possible for an international applicant to the college of arts and science to receive one? @HelloEveryone27

LL’s do come via email.
I don’t know the answer to ur second question. XD

Ok but do LLs go to just anyone or only women engineers or URMs or certain schools?

@CAMidwestMom From last years thread, only women engineers, and URM applicants got them from my understanding.

Thank you @CCSenioritis. We are sitting here with so many at the point where the wait is starting to get to us! I wonder if anyone is able to handle it better. Actually I don’t think my son is that stressed, it’s more me. Sad but true lol.

@CAMidwestMom The wait is definitely getting worse now that people are receiving acceptances and LL’s come out soon. It was a lot easier to deal with earlier in January and February. I’m sure your son is secretly screaming inside like me hahahahah

He actually did ask about it this weekend and I told him the truth, that there could be a LL. He hasn’t been too aware or hasn’t asked about it much up until this point. So, you are probably right. He is leaning towards our state flagship, but he has a very competitive little group at school and most of them are awaiting results on 3/31. Hang in there! Hoping for good news for you!!

Ditto for your son as well! thanks!

I’m an SHA applicant nothing in the mail today. Is it possible to get a midweek letter or will it most likely come at the end of the week? I realize that there are more waves but silence cannot be a good thing.

does anyone know if CAS applicants find out before the 31st?

you guys keep asking the same questions : /

@CAMidwestMom You sound exactly like me!!! I’m having the hardest time being patient and my son is handling the wait a lot better than I am. I’m trying to find things to keep my mind off of this, but I’m having a hard time waiting around!

In terms of URMs, what is Cornell’s criteria?
