<p>Well then making the case isn't so important to some schools if they don't accept the students, so my point was it is sometimes irrelevant.</p>
<p>BTW I'm a Penn student applying to Harvard so maybe this is just the face I'm getting from other Penn, Columbia and Yale students who have transferred there - I think Cornell and Stanford have agreements with state community colleges to strengthen civic relations and impact the community. Each school has a different theory on what transfers should bring, and perhaps Columbia and Harvard are assess reasons differently; my reasons have to do with my writing career and the limitations of pragmatism in the pre-professional atmosphere, so it all depends on the scope of the committee's review.</p>
<p>So how about them packers?</p>
<p>Back on the topic. No regular transfer has yet made it through the iron gates of CAS.

<p>Standford definitely does not have any such transfer agreement with community colleges. University of California at Los Angeles and University of California at Berkley (apparently the #1 public university) have transfer agrrements with community colleges.</p>
<p>first question: are CAS decisions being posted tonight?
second question: if yes, any idea how many decisions will be posted?
third question: have there been any CAS decisions this week at all?
forth question: are they posting acceptances first and then rejections?</p>
<p>sorry for all the questions? just desperately want to go to cornell, instead of uchicago at tthis point</p>
<p>1: probably, but we don't know for sure because we don't work at admissions
2: again, how can we know? we don't work at admissions
3: yes (from those who have reported, most have been rejections :()
4: no</p>

<li>CAS decisions will be posted tonight.</li>
<li>Don't know. Heard the process will last till june. You do the math.</li>
<li>Yes, I was rejected along with others.</li>
<li>It is possible. I believe that they might be posting rejections first. My theory was that they grouped all the possible rejections together and then briefly went over them to see if any of them should be added to the potential acceptance pile. However, given the calibur of the people rejected,I suspect that they are doing it all at once. Also, some people have been accepted.</li>
</ol>
<p>I think only students who have received guaranteed transfer letters their senior year of hs have been accepted so far.</p>
<p>"I think only students who have received guaranteed transfer letters their senior year of hs have been accepted so far."</p>
<p>Yea, thats whay i was asking about, it seems like only GTs have gotten acceptanced. In which case, it is entirely possible that tonights postings (if any) are only rejections and GT acceptances.</p>
<p>sorry about the rejections, i feel for you. I got rejected from 6 of 8 schools i applied to. one school which raped me up the ass, deferred, waitlisted, rejected</p>
<p>lol</p>
<hr>
<p>edit: Sorry :/</p>
<p>If it follows that they are just doing rejections first, then it means admissions is a lot more F-ed up than we thought. Why would the separate such high calibur people as possible rejections? Something isn't making sense here. I guess another possibility is that people have been accepted but just haven't heard yet.</p>
<p>CC isn't well representative of the whole 900-people CAS transfer pool. Maybe they are posting only rejections, maybe not.
However, consider this:
1. It is a fact that most schools start by initially eliminating a substantial part of the applicants. Stanford eliminates 40% of the applicants with a brief initial reading.
2. Cornell is rolling, but only in the notification part of the process. I.e. they anounce decisions as they are made, they don't assess applicaions as they come. That means that they could still implement a procedure similar to the one mentioned in 1.</p>
<p>its cool, i can laugh about it now too</p>
<p>its also possible that the people who come to college confidential are disporportionally insecure and thus need a forum to serve as an outlet for anxiety and second doubts. consquently, the decisions being posted on cc are biased towards rejections since ppl likely to get rejected are the ones that post here in the first place</p>
<p>kekeke</p>
<p>They used to had just the same worries as us. Look at them now.

<p>i have been following ur comments martinibluex, ur comments make sense. but how the hell do u know these stuffs? u know what stanford does, and how harvard thinks, not to mention how other schools go on with their decision.
u better concentrate on Dif Eq. haha...u are taking it now rite?...finals are near.</p>
<p>and btw, i was rejected by Cornell ( to ppl who want to hear whats going on with Cornell deision)</p>
<p>tonight, militarythreat?</p>
<p>Ha, compared to understanding the motives and rationale of Harvard and Stanford adcoms -- differential equations must look like a piece of sweet, saccharine cake.</p>
