Well It says either you are not logged in or your session has ended or something. Doesn’t get into housing
@waterfountain yes and I’m CAS
yes, I’m also getting that same phrase when I try getting onto the portal. I’m an ILR applicant
I called admissions for CHE, they told me they’re not sending any e-mails this year. Only letters… (insecure because it’s the smallest college so it has to overcompensate with the fancy snail mail) But they told me they sent it out days ago! I still haven’t gotten it!
@bugsy123 Well. What should we expect to receive if we do not get accepted. Nothing or a rejection letter by mail? They moved the anxiety from online to offline :">
Rejection letter by mail. this only applies to CHE applicants
@bugsy123 I’m so sorry! Despite the rejection letter I’m positive you’ll do great things. Thank you for sharing your result, I’m sure others will find it extremely helpful to know that getting onto housing isn’t indicative of anything…@mrsblaileen
Lol bugsy123 didnt get denied…they are just explaining what a rejected HE applicant can expect. Bugsy can log into housing and past threads mean that is almost a certain sign of being accepted.
Yeah I didnt get denied… yet…
Ah silly me! Yes, @ILR2017 I was like wow that certainly would be a game changer if someone could get onto housing but still be rejected. @bugsy123 good things to come, stop thinking you’re going to get denied !! (:
@waterfountain I applied to CALS as a sophomore transfer!
First post on CC but I’ve been following this thread. My transeval updated with my name and major on Tuesday, and yesterday my transfer evaluation link was updated. Did anyone else applying to CALS check their transeval?
@jesstess678 Do you mean on “https://transeval.cals.cornell.edu/”? Mine shows the major I applied for with a link to a credit-evaluated transcript (from my current university).
Does this mean anything significant?
Or does every applicant have access to this?
@Davemit @mrsblaileen @hf1234 @bugsy123
@waterfountain I think that means you were admitted!!
PSA that link is only applicable for agriculture and life science applicants
Yeah, they wouldn’t formally evaluate your transcript just to deny you. You’re most likely admitted 
Has anyone ever been admitted with a failing grade? I failed a class because of some really extreme extenuating financial circumstances (explained in additional info section). I literally just stopped going because I missed the withdrawal date. It was anthropology, not a class related to my STEM major.
Also in all of these threads I’ve never seen anyone applying for statistical science. What’s up with that? Does no one like statistics or something? Is this an advantage for me?
Is a 3.7 a low GPA?
Are there a lot of non-trads at Cornell?
I’m freaking outtttt
@mrsblaileen I’m not sure whether anyone’s been admitted with a failing grade, but as long as you thoroughly explained it, I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Of course grades are important, but that doesn’t mean that the 4.0-perfect-SAT- student is going to certainly get accepted over someone with a lower GPA/test scores. I wouldn’t consider a 3.7 low at all. They want smart, dedicated people, yeah, but they want interesting people, too.
I can’t remember which spring transfer thread it was, but I remember seeing that the people with lower GPAs were getting accepted, while the more ‘qualified/perfect’ students weren’t (i.e. the 4.0s were getting rejected, while the 3.7/3.8s got in). It’s not a concrete fact or anything. Just something I noticed.
I know it’s hard, but I’d just try not to think about it right now. I mean, hey, you already got into a school you’d be happy attending. And if anything, you’ll probably have just as awesome a time there as you would at Cornell. So right now, try to put your mind towards something else. Maybe read, watch some Netflix, see a movie, listen to some music, etc. It’ll be alright.
(I’ve mostly been a lurker here, but I also applied for spring transfer to CAS, and couldn’t not comment as we all wait for our decisions).
@waterfountain Yes that’s link I’m talking about- in past threads if your transfer credit evaluation is updated, it’s a good indication that you are accepted! I really hope we’ll be able to find out next Tuesday ahhh
@mrsblaileen if you want to talk about non-trad’s here’s my story:
I graduated high school in spring 2015. I had applied to cornell for RD three days before the deadline, really wasn’t sure what I was doing with my life, was pretty sure Cornell would not take me. They didn’t…! Through e-mail, at least. The e-mail began with: “We regret to inform you that…” And after I read that I was in tears for days. A couple of days later I get a letter in the mail from Cornell’s CHE that read: “Congratulations! You’ve been given the TO option… etc etc etc”. Let me tell you something about TO option: There isn’t much info on it at all! Essentially the gist was that all I had to do to be admitted was take the classes on the required coursework page, get above a 3.5 GPA, and I was good to go! But, I wanted to take a gap year after high school to sort of figure out my career goals and save up some money before going to college, and so I asked the CHE if it was okay for me to defer for a year. They said it was fine.
Halfway through the following year I get a call from my advisor requesting additional info as to what classes I’m taking, etc etc., and I told him: I spoke to admissions last year and they said it was perfectly okay to defer for a year! And then my advisor told me that I could defer for as long as I wanted to, but I had to get the required course work done within a year of when they gave me the decision or else the option would be taken away! So I had moved halfway across the world and spent 6 months on a farm not taking any college classes, and all of a sudden I had to move back home and get in to the first and cheapest city school that would take me! I was hopeless and I knew I wouldn’t be able to get all of the courses done in time. It just doesn’t work to start school in the spring, especially since I would have to apply for the following spring and it is rare for cornell to accept science transfers in the spring according to my advisor. But I did it. It wasn’t easy, and I didn’t finish every single required course, but I went to school straight through the summer and finished as much as I could. I now stand at around a 3.9 but my advisor still cautioned me about getting my hopes up.
And now here I am, anxiously awaiting a decision that may or may not make the last difficult year worth it! I’m more than sure Cornell will hear your story and be flexible. They stand by the statement that anyone can pursue any study that they are passionate about! I would be hopeful!
@jesstess678 Oh wow that’s great news (assuming the connection between the transeval and acceptance is solid)!!
I really hope we hears back on tuesday…
