Cornell RD 2017

So my friend applied to Cornell RD and she got a letter saying that SHE GOT IN on March 1st. I though decisions came out on March 30? I still haven’t heard back from them, so when should I be expecting the notification? also why did she get hers early?

The ivies (and other schools) send out “likely letters” guaranteeing admissions to entice a handful of very competitive students. (% of total applicants vary for each school)

I have not gotten a likely letter either but I choose to remain optimistic! March 30th will be here before you know it! Keep the faith and just know that at this point it’s out of your hands and that you will wind up at a college and whichever one it is it will be a great experience!

Important to know that very very few people get likely letters. Don’t worry about it in terms of your own admission.

Only SHA and ILR are able to receive acceptance letters before Ivy Day. All other schools will hear back on March 30th.

Which school did she apply to? SHA or ILR?
