Cornell ED Class of 2022 Discussion Thread

Because everything on my to do list disappeared after I submitted everything before 11/21 and I just checked again an it came back. I really confused.

Hahha got you!!XD two more days!!

How many items total in ā€œfinancial aid to do listā€ when Cornell receives initially?

I applied ED, and with a few hours away from announcement, I still have 4 items in to do list. Here they are:

Aid Application Certification
11/21/2017
Initiated

Federal Tax Return-Parent
11/21/2017
Initiated

Federal Tax Return-Student
11/21/2017
Initiated

IDOC Submission
11/21/2017
Initiated

Did Cornell process one or two items already? or nothing at all?

I have the same list! Exactly 4 items on the to-do list. However I checked with my parents and IDOC says they submitted everything and it was received by Cornell shortly after the financial aid deadline. Iā€™m only going to call them about financial aid after Monday depending on my decision. Do other people have this problem?

Yeah I have a feeling that theyā€™re still trying to process a lot of peopleā€™s financial aid stuff if so many people are having this problem (literally nothing was cleared off my list until I emailed them this Thursday night and I was really nervous too!). Emailing them definitely wouldnā€™t hurt, but Iā€™m sure if you submitted the forms on time thereā€™s no actual problem, theyā€™re just busy :0

@TST2022 Hi! Besides SHA, I have also applied to the hospitality programs at BU, NYU, UCF, GW, Ohio State, UMass Amherst, and UDel, among others. My second choice is likely BU, but there really isnā€™t any school quite as amazing as Cornellā€™s. How about yourself?

ok, thanks @pythankorean I think I will just wait until I get my decision. I did everything right so they have to give me some financial aid depending on their admittance decision.

Maybe financial office knows I am not selected, so just donā€™t bother to process?

@ningve dont worry! The way its set up is that FA does not know decisions and Admissions does not know FA. They get matched up at the end

@sf0617 BU is my second choice as well and I feel the exact same about Cornell, however, I am majoring in Nutritional Science :slight_smile:

@kiwifanatic @pythakorean I have same thing - all items show ā€œinitiatedā€ as of 11/21ā€¦but we had submitted all docs by 10/28ā€¦fingers crossed!!

@sf0617 Iā€™m also applying to UMass Amherst! Itā€™s actually my second choice after SHA along with James Madison.

@mcgoobear cool Iā€™m applying to nutritional science as well but in CoHE not CALS

Is everyone elseā€™s Application Self-Service System being updated every day at 5:20ish in the morning?

mine was

Results are outā€¦

Just kidding

@mcgoobear thatā€™s so cool! Best of luck to you!!!

@sokibuscus cool! good luck to you!

Hi everyone! Whenever I check my Financial Aid to do list, it brings me to an Oracle PeopleSoft login page. Is this happening to anyone else?

just close that browser tab and try againā€¦ iā€™ve seen that happen beforeā€¦ and doing one or two times usually it works
