It is absolutely brilliant and enables you to see acceptance rates by school and gender!

@Cornell20 I agree. It is brilliant!
@princetonian9 Yes, Cornell will send you a letter and a nice certificate if you are accepted.
I just checked the admissions rates for the school of engineering, and it’s pretty skewed.
The acceptance rate of the School of Engineering is 13.5%, which is in line with the rest of Cornell.
Splitting it up by gender tells a completely different story.
Women have more than a 26% acceptance rate, and the acceptance rate for men is under 9%.
I expected women’s to be higher, but I didn’t expect the acceptance rate to be so skewed.
Damn arts and sciences has 18,000 applicants…
did deferred ED students get LLs or Diversity letters, or anything?
@blerghnn I was deferred ED and got the diversity letter
Engineering acceptance rate for men is 8.9% and moreover, I’m an Asian (Indian technically). :’(
@efebrkn idk if you consider diversity hosting to be equivalent to a likely letter as some do but if so, I’m post #5 at http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/cornell-university/1867304-cornell-class-of-2020-rd-results-only-p1.html
Everything went well but maths! What about you?
That’s great
hey there! where can i find the acceptance rates for specific schools? I applied to AAP for Urban & Regional Planning; does anyone know what the acceptance rate for AAP is?
Does Cornell not take Writing scores of the SAT in consideration?
If it does, then any idea whether the rest of the data on this link is trustable because it doesn’t show the range of scores of writing that Cornell applicants have :((

@blazedragon @Zummies My financial aid list to-do list isn’t empty. I didn’t submit some of my financial aid stuff though. Did you guys submit everything they asked for (W-2 statements, etc)?
@gxssipgirl Being an international applicant, they said I needed to submit only the CSS profile… So that’s the only thing I sent to them. Also, our financial year runs differently, so asking for tax returns at that time would have been an impossible request anyway (Princeton did mention that it was the reason they didn’t expect my family to submit in the tax returns of this year )
Guys is it weird that i haven’t heard from Cornell since I applied? Is it an obvious sign of rejection?
I am multi-racial, but technically half-white and half-Asian/Indian.
Would that be an advantage or disadvantage in my case?
@positron311 in that case, it doesn’t matter. I think you will be considered with the white applicant pool
So apparently for one reason or another Cornell can’t determine my financial aid, which is really weird because I haven’t had any problems with any of the other colleges I’ve been accepted to??? I guess this is another reason why Cornell is off the list.
@dpasa86 While an LL or a DL is obviously a sign that you’re in before you get the official letter, I don’t believe that there is any indication of a rejection that you can get before the letter comes. Stay strong friend, only a few days left.
