Cornell Fall 2017 Transfer

Hey guys! Haven’t posted on this thread until now but I’ve been reading it almost everyday haha. I’m a CAS applicant, still no pin or any updates. The wait is slowly killing me lol

I don’t see anyone saying they got their PINs…is nothing coming out next week? lol

international CAS no pin

@mmmmmmmmmmop i know an international student who got rejected

Yesterday I got an email from CALS saying that they didn’t have my midterm report even though I sent it and it was checked off online?? Anyways I called and resent it in but they didn’t give me a date for CALS… If I had to guess I think they’re just starting with CALS now.

@chingchingli which college did he apply for?

@boboboddd he applied to cas. rejected this tuesday

@chingchingli thanks for the info

Does anyone have any idea when they will be releasing decisions or when they did in prior years for SHA? Deposits are becoming due and need to know. Thanks!

Any of my CALS friends get any updates?

@panicattheapp nope! But I also haven’t really bothered to ask them or anything. I got into Penn and most likely will be attending.

@VaishS Just curious, in the situation you decide to go to penn, are you expected to withdraw your application to Cornell? And in the scenario that you get an offer and don’t accept it, is it given to a weightlsted transfer applicant?

CONGRATS BTW!!! You must be estathatic!

@CorTransCHE So I did decide against withdrawing my app. I still wanna see if I get in and what FA would be. But I should get my Penn FA in the next few days and will then know if I will attend or not. So if I am attending I will immediately turn Cornell down so it can go to someone else in the next wave or on the waitlist! I wanna see my decision but I dont wanna take up the seat from anyone!

@VaishS
What school in Cornell did you apply to btw?

@HopefulCollege95 CALS!

Oh please give me my decision on Tuesday; I’m losing my mind…

I have to put in a deposit on the 20th at another school (Duke or Northeastern) so I’m really hoping it’s this Tuesday or the next.

@Ukulele98 wait dude did you get in Duke? I thought decisions aren’t gonna come out before Friday
