The acceptance rate is going to drop by a considerable amount this year. I can already feel it. :expressionless:

562

Last year ED grew by 10% and they accepted about the same amount of people as years prior. About a 1% drop accepted. Itā€™ll be okay everyone, relax.

@DennisYHi I have already been accepted to the University of Texas at Austin. so i guess thats my safety

564

I guess we just have to wait
:frowning:

@299792458 Congrats! I thought state universities send acceptance notifications in the spring. How did you hear so fast?

566

@Camchar88 Thx. I was automatically admitted because I was above a certain percentile of our school rank. I guess thats why they sent me the letter so fast

567

Wow, it seems like this year every single elite school is experiencing a dramatic increase in the number of applicants. Iā€™m feeling blessed that Iā€™m in-state for UVA right now.

568

Are we supposed to be getting an email from Cornell sometime this week about their decision portal? I think I read about this in a previous thread. Is this true? I initially thought the applicant portal we have access to now was where we get our decision hmm does anyone know

569

@Scorpion2000 I donā€™t see how my DDā€™s school is special it is just another public school. I understand how nervous you are but donā€™t read too much into the information given. Good luck!

570

Do you think its too late to submit things my DD has done or won since she submitted her app?

571

Did anyone else get the email???

572

@lisaol yeah. Itā€™s probably too late at this point. Sorry.

573

@lrandolph what email?

574

@stwide19 did cornell send the email to your daughter or did cornell send the email to your daughterā€™ school?

575

@David124 it was a newsletter sent by Cornell AO to my DDs school. My DDs school receives newsletters from multiple universities which they forward time to time.

576

my essays are like trash though. i feel like i am a pretty interesting person but i just couldnt express myself freely in the essays.

578

@coolandnerdyyy donā€™t worry even though I have the same struggleā€¦ since we already submitted the application, the best we can do is to waitā€¦!

579

My financial to do list still has a lot of initiatedā€¦
