Cornell ED Class of 2022 Discussion Thread

how many ppl have applied to human ecology? do ur schools do ranking b/c mine doesnt?

me too

@trustinlife Most freshmen accepted into Cornell come from schools who don’t rank. I believe last year only 21% or 26% of the incoming freshmen’s schools ranked. It is very common for schools to have a no-ranking policy.

I applied to HE and my school has no ranking policy.

Hi guys I would advise you all not to let your anxiety get the best of you because in my case it has manifested into the worst cold of my life. Whatever happens tomorrow, be grateful that you all can breathe through your noses (:

Any CAS applicants? if so what major? I’m Econ

my school has a ranking policy, but i’m guessing the reason why colleges don’t care for it is because it depends on the kinds of classes you take. someone could take all the “normal” classes and be ranked first, and someone who takes AP classes could be in the top 15%. It’s really subjective.

@prusty687 I applied to CAS undecided

I think they would have already created our accounts in this website.

@bobsagets at a lot of schools the ranking is based on the weighted GPA, so that straight A’s in the normal college prep track would still be lower than someone with As/Bs on honors/AP track

@cmustang1 The thing you said about HE (. Especially for CALS, Hum. Ec., AAP, and ILR, it seems like they focus a large part on how they think you will fit with them, and I think in ED, that might even be more important (if its possible) than in regular. I am only saying this because if you can show them that you really fit with their school AND have signed a binding agreement saying you will attend if accepted, it counts for something. That is why they accept a large part of their class from ED), is extremely accurate. I talked to Mr. Fisher after the info session and he said that the most important, if not as important as GPA and SAT, is fit; what can you do for cornell and what can cornell do for you.

@thekiwibird lmao i’m so scared to try that what if they see that i somehow gained access to that site early and somehow punish me for it… 0_0

I did the website and changed the password for my account, lol. But it still says decisions will just be at 7

I’m pretty sure they won’t punish me for being curious about a website anyone can access. Calm down.

does anyone know how to access the results once we get the email? like will it be a link to a website that we log into? because originally i thought it would be on the portal they already gave us, but on the portal it says instructions will be in the email and that it won’t be on the portal.

@prusty687 same, CAS econ here

yeah i think the email will tell us to access the link that thekiwibird just posted and also have our login credentials
