Cornell RD Class of 2016 Discussion Thread

<p>Accepted to Michigan State University-James Madison honors college with scholarship. Accepted to University of Michigan with a scholarship and invite to honors.
Accepted to USMA-West Point via Senatorial and Congressional nominations.
just waiting on my two ivies now. It’s not looking good though because even if I’m accepted I don’t think we’ll be able to afford it, so i’m not as enthusiastic as before… but one can hope</p>

<p>I just received an email from an alum saying she wanted to interview me. I applied for ilr and arts and sciences and I thought Cornell didn’t normally do interviews except for the hotel school and aaap…</p>

<p>That’s not really what Cornell considers an interview. DD had her information alumni “meet and greet” - these interviews have little influence on actual admissions. At the most, they gauge your real interest in the school.</p>

<p>I graduated from the Hotel school back in the day (required interview on campus) , while my sister graduated ILR (alumni interview). Standard fare.</p>

<p>how does cornell notify you of your decision and how long does it typically take from the time you apply, thanks?</p>

<p>It’ll be at the end of march and they’ll email you what to do 2 days before or so</p>

<p>dah thats so long</p>

<p>Any Hotelies haha?? I don’t think there’s any other program in the country I’d rather be in come September…</p>

<p>hi guys! international asian applicant here :\ the wait is killing me, and it’s not even halfway through february yet. ughh.</p>

<p>@pch430 hotelies have to dress up on Fridays for participation grade?</p>

<p>@lilredboxes, I completely agree with you, waiting for the end of March is extremely difficult especially since I am so impatient lol. I am hoping for the best since my friend was accepted ED and my GPA and SAT scores are much higher than hers.</p>

<p>@lifeisbeautiful, yes, I heard that too haha…not sure if it’s true or not. We were required to wear a full suit for the interview so I wouldn’t be surprised.</p>

<p>anyone apply to CALS? with what major? i applied for interational and rural development</p>

<p>Anyone know when like letters come out?</p>

<p>@lexie…if you get one, it would be in mid-March, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.</p>

<p>@pch340 how do you know that? A lot of other ivys already sent out likely letters…</p>

<p>@lifeisbeautiful </p>

<p>that’s when a lot of Cornell applicants received them last year. Late February - mid March</p>

<p>@pch340. Thanks for the info :)</p>

<p>Are likely letters mainly offered to URM’s and female engineers?</p>

<p>It looks like notification day will be March 28th. I went to the Cornell housing site to check out housing options and it says that we can start to sign up for housing on March 29th at 12:00 pm. </p>

<p>Go Big Red!!!</p>
