<p>The submission time for me is March 24, 1:44:00 PM E.S.T. time. Of course, I obviously didn't submit my application just yesterday. However, I assume it's the time when my decision was made.</p>
<p>So, any one please follow the same procedure and post their "submission time"?</p>
<p>it explains right on the page
"Please Note: The Application Submitted Date listed is a system generated date and does not reflect the actual date your application was submitted."
it says that right above where it says the date</p>
<p>wow, that's interesting. It's actually more than an hour different. Maybe we can try to plot a pattern here too.</p>
<p>So, in addition of posting the submitted time, please also give your first letter of your last name, and your location, and which section of Cornell you are applying.</p>
<p>As a starter, my surname starts with "m", and I apply to Cornell engineering from Europe.</p>
<p>Ok, I definitely know it's not the time when I submitted my application.</p>
<p>Since, it's like more than an hour different between my submitted time and you people's, what I speculate is that they are doing it manually. </p>
<p>Since now, we have a specific time of PIN account creation, it's something reliable to kill our time now in investigating why the difference. :)</p>
<p>does this page give you your online decision for March 31st? Somehow, my CU web thing got disabled, so I was wondering whether I need to contact tech support ASAP or if this applyyourself thing will suffice.</p>
<p>Manually? They couldn't pay someone enough to manually register 30,000+ applicants to the applyyourself website. It's all done by computer, and the hour difference doesn't mean a thing. It takes computers a while to register 30,000+ applicants, too.</p>
<p>it might take a while. But unless both servers are extremely slow it should not take up to an hour. That's quite a long time for a computer and only 30,000 entries into the applyyourself database..</p>
<p>california_love8, I can still access my CU web, but of course, you won't get your decision from there.</p>

<p>I read it as a joke, and was about to post a "lol" - but now you've got me kind of second guessing myself. Wow, I /really/ hope you are joking - haha</p>
<p>What we also need to acknowledge is that 1 hour is the LEAST possible time difference. There can be people whose time are after mine as well.</p>
<p>What I mean by manual is that the adcoms are making their final decisions now, and that submission time probably indicates the time a decision is made for a particular applicant.</p>
<p>Maybe there must be a trend, if it's not random. I think the closer the time between two applicants, the more is in common between them in some way.</p>
<p>jackwang - even if the times indicate similary between applicants (which I doubt) since we don't know how got in or not, how would it make a difference? Like if our times are the same, and someone else's is completely different, what does that signify? </p>
<p>I'm just gonna hold on 6 days and find out...I'm expecting rejection because unlike most of you, cornell was a super reach for me. I have a low gpa and applied to the most selective school - CAS, so the odds aren't in my favor :(</p>
<p>to molly4190, what I was hypothesizing is that maybe there exists certain trend in the submitted time. If so, we can compare the two applicants in terms of their stats, location, or surname.</p>
<p>Btw, I don't think CAS is the most selective school, but the engineering school is , but it depends on your gender.</p>
<p>Hmm I thought I read a thread here once where someone ranked CAS as the hardest because of the multitude of candidates - I'm female so I guess engineering would be easier for me to get into. </p>
<p>As for the first part of your post, no offense but I don't think a trend is worth finding, so I'm just gonna hang on and wait a few days. Nothing will really help alleviate my anxiety at this point</p>
