Has anyone gotten their student ID yet?
@ruby21 I am a GT for Humec and didn’t receive anything today! More waiting for us i guess…!
For my Common App essay (why do you want to transfer), I wrote about how my previous and current schools have shaped me and gave me many valuable experiences and lessons (project related to my dream and passions, etc), making me ready to take a step forward to a 4-year uni. (Since I am from a community college I do not have to address why I want to move away from it. Its a given that CCs only offer 2-year AA/AS programs.)
For Cornell specific essay, I wrote about how I grew up around my grandfather’s botanical garden back in my home country and how my love for plants blossomed there. I also wrote about what I want to do with plants (my dream) and how a part of my culture is related to the dream. Then I link everything to what Cornell has, how and why I fell in love with Cornell, and an example of the resources I can utilize there. (Plant Science Major)
Congrats on everyone who made it today and good luck to everyone still waiting I’m confident it will turn out well for yall!
Anybody applying for school of engineering?
For Cornell specific essay I wrote about a unique story that shaped me to get interested in my desired major, and how Cornell will provide me with all the resources I need to succeed.
@ChadisWack I am. What is your major?
It said I was going to receive my decision at 10 today (the PIN trick did), but I haven’t received it? I am confusion has this happened to anyone else?
did you receive a transeval, housing, or finanical aid update prior to your decision?
@veganmom1223 not yet, the acceptance letter says that I will recieve a welcome packet with everything soon!
Was a lack of transeval, housing, or financial aid update the same for other people admitted today?
Hey guys! Been in a less active thread before finding this one.

What did I miss haha
I saw some people a couple pages back talking about a financial transfer transcript? I applied for financial aid and my financial aid to do list keeps giving me the same message: " No current to do item information found."
Is the transcript specific to a certain school? I applied to CAS btw, and I’m kinda panicking now about this. My application was completed and went for review on the second of April.
@DBaf20 Cool. I’m majoring in electrical engineering. So far i have my application under review but I didnt get notifications today about a decision. I’m assuming we are later than other schools
@ChadisWack yeah mine says it’s under review as well. They also said that they won’t make a decision until my midterm report is received. I’m sure it won’t take to long for us to get decisions since from what I’ve read, the school of engineering doesn’t receive a ton of applicants. Best of luck!
@DBaf20 Same to you! So did they email you regarding about your midterm report. Also, if you don’t mind if I ask what is your stats for applying. Thank you.
@ChadisWack No I actually emailed them about it since my current school doesn’t offer midterm grades. So they just told my not to worry about it and send an updated transcript once I’m done with the class! I’m applying for Civil Engineering y the way.
Also, my stats are back on page 4 of this thread if you’d like to go back and look at them. What are yours?
@DBaf20 You have amazing stats and that sympathy story would have me drenched lol I think you pretty much got in this school.
As for me, I used a symptahy essay about weight loss and have 3.65GPA with it. Some activities like student government, piano, and tutoring.
How do you guys know if your application is under review/ has been reviewed??? Mine doesn’t show anything.
