<p>What the hell? You probably would've gotten in had you applied for Freshmen.</p>
<p>I think the difficulty of transferring into Cornell was dramatically increased because they accepted more freshmen this year.</p>

<p>I am not sure.</p>
<p>For some reason, the Ivys that would otherwise be construed as "transfer-friendly," seem to be as harsh as their highly competitive counterparts.</p>

Yeah... Cornell and Brown finally getting fed up with being a safety for transfers or something :D</p>
<p>Why would it matter that they accepted more freshmen? The class you are applying to is the junior class, which is not increased due to the larger freshman size. And... did they even accept more freshmen to begin with?</p>
<p>i heard last week through the mail and i was accepted! good luck to everyone!</p>
<p>congrats schmitty. what school you get into?</p>
<p>congrats there, and hey! do u guys think this thread is really old?</p>
<p>ACCEPTED TO CALS BIOLOGY AND SOCIETY.
stats listed on previous posts.
i found out this morning on the app. status checker</p>
<p>I already sent my deposit to SUNY Binghamton, but if I get enough money, i'd probably go to Cornell.</p>
<p>GL to all.</p>
<p>hey all. I was rejected CAS. Good luck to those who haven't heard!</p>
<p>@MFtransfer, are financial reasons the only issue that would hold you back from Cornell? Does Binghamton even compare to Cornell on any other level? Because you are in NY and accepted to CALS, is your tuition somewhat reduced? How much cheaper is it?</p>
