Cornell Fall 2018 Transfer Thread

2 things
1.) The transeval or the financial aid update do NOT need to occur for you to be accepted according to past threads. It does happen, but it equally does not happen as well.
2.) I am a CALS applicant, no PIN, but everything on my IDOC was waived this morning when I had previously had 4 things listed under Required Documents. Has this happened to anyone else? The papers IDOC said they needed had been sent over a month ago and have just been waived.

Hey everybody, i’ve been keeping up with this thread for like a month but this is my first time posting on here. I just did the PIN trick and i’m getting my decision tomorrow 10 am for ILR… but my financial aid stuff still all says initiated, is there like any chance that I could still be accepted or does that mean I’m definitely getting a rejection? I’m so nervous… Thanks

@hope2018transfer How did you do the pin trick?

@MsRazzleDazzle if you go to this link: https://decision.applyyourself.com/fl_login.aspx?id=cornellu you can click onto forgot your PIN or password and then it will say they couldn’t find your PIN or it will say that an email has been sent for you to make a new password. Then once I made the new password it took me to a page that said "your decision will be available for viewing on 5/1/2018 at 10:00 am

@hope2018transfer this week is historically rejection week regardless of financial aid update. Your financial aid does not need to update to ordered to determine if you were accepted because it is not always processed at the same time as your decision.

@veganmom1223 Ok, i’m totally expecting a rejection then i guess. thank u for telling me that tho!!!

@hope2018transfer @veganmom1223 I don’t think the same applies to ILR. Last year there were a few non-GT acceptances through the first wave: http://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/discussion/comment/20605659/#Comment_20605659

No pin yet I applied to SHA and got waitlisted last year

@hope2018transfer Okay, just did it and I got a notice saying my decision will be viewable at 10am tomorrow. Also expecting a rejection, but tbh it’s Cornell I didn’t set my expectations too high for this one ^^"

ILR applicants, I found this comment very interesting. I am wondering if Ian will call the accepted applicants this year as well.

Hm, I think the trend got broken last year:

But, I think most of the applicants got a call last year.

Pin trick worked, FA only “initiated.” Incoming rejection wave tomorrow for engineering. First among rejects, me

@scarletred what are your stats?

@DBaf20

Incoming junior,
All prereqs
61 credits
3.82 GPA
state university
non-traditional

Had a C on my mid-term report, unfortunately, which really sucks because I’m going to end with an A in the course.

@scarletred Be positive! The rejection is not for 100% everyone. I did saw occasionally some engineering applicants got accepted in early last year!

Good luck tomorrow!

Pin trick worked and it says “ordered” on fa. CAS applicant… nervous

@manshiwang

Maybe not, but I think it probably is a rejection. I’m hopeful I’ll get accepted to one of my other schools. I got waitlisted for UVA and rejected by lehigh so far, but im waiting to hear from NYU and USC still, which I think are my strongest applications and where my chances are highest.

Good luck to you, too :slight_smile:

@brilliant21 what is the pin trick haha

If FA does say ordered then, is it still possible to get rejected?

@scarletred I got my acceptance from NYU last week. I would feel confident if I were you, our stats are very similar.
