@Scorpion2000 I was wondering the same thing. Anyone from the south or midwest? Texas/Oklahoma/Kansas/Arkansas?
Guys I have applied for ED.Suppose I get admitted is there anyway I donāt join Cornell?
@LIONKINGGGG I suppose only if you can demonstrate that you canāt afford it. It is a binding decision and your school Guidance Counselor and parents signed it, right?
@LIONKINGGGG the only allowable breach from the binding agreement, is if the financial aid isnāt sufficient for your attendance. There is not stated criteria for that, so itās really between the Student, their family and Cornell to determine it. That said, thereās nothing but your personal ethics that would prevent you from just refusing, but bear in mind, Cornell could contact other schools, and your decision would not make your HS counselor look good.
@bipedalhumanoid Hey! CoE and u? I thought I was the only applicant from Europe here:)
Hi @LIONKINGGGG , my D has EDād to another school. And we have demonstrated need. How I understand it is if Cornell admits you, the only way you and your family can get out of the agreement is if the financial aid does not come in where it is supposed to be. Then you can get out. A financial person from my Dās ED school even told me that itās up to us as a family to decide if that offer is enough for us, itās not up to them to decide. Now, if you do not have financial need, I donāt think there is wiggle room. Even if there are promising things happening with other schools youāve applied to (like my D), when we signed the forms for ED, we said if accepted, sheād go there AND weād pull any other applications from other schools.
If you have really tough details involved in your situation, I would encourage you to talk to your GC.
I am not sure how Cornell would contact other schools if they donāt know where @LIONKINGGGG applied. However, some schools do share info. automatically within their consorsiums. And I have read that the Ivy League automatically shares the names of ED acceptances with each other so that there is no funny business. But the financial aid issue is a real one, and I am sure it happens to many families once the offers are made.
@Daniel5664 CAS but hopefully doing dual degree with CoE although that might be too much work)))
does anyone know if Cornell has number of available slots for each major within each of their seven colleges?
@flagship2000 I believe CALS does. Iām not sure about the rest.
