Cornell Transfer Fall 2021

Any other applicants for CAS feminist and Gender studies//interest in Indigenous studies minor?? Did not receive decision today, so just trying to stay calm. Good luck everyone, and congratulations to those who received decisions, no matter what happens just having enough drive to put these applications together during this difficult time is a great achievement:)

any CALS acceptances today?

Nope, I have not heard of anyone from CALS getting a decision today including myself.

hopefully next week then! Good luck everybody, and congrats to those who got acceptances today!

I know applications are reviewed by the school you apply to, but is it reviewed based on major? Like would a CAS Math applicant and CAS English applicant be evaluated by the same people at CAS, or would they be evaluated by specific groups within the college (humanities vs stem for ex)?

Rejected from CAS

GPA: 4.0 in adult life and at my current institution, got a single C back when I was 16 at my first CC

Major: Chemistry

Other info: Essay was risky but I liked it, Iā€™m Native

Other decisions so far:
Accepted: State school
Rejected: UCI
Waitlisted: UCSC
Pending: Lot of others

Kinda kills my confidence about getting into any of my reach schools ngl

Thank you, Iā€™m still trying to keep my hope up for another acceptance from a reach school. I still got 15 or so decisions left. Congratulations to everyone that got in today and I hope everyone else doesnā€™t need to wait too long!

Did any TO get accepted yesterday? If yes, which college? Thanks.

15?!??!!?! Wow. Cant imagine dealing with so much stress. Best of luck

Yeah itā€™s not ideal for my stress level and applying to 19 was not fun lmao

That said, if I get literally /any/ acceptance from a reach school I applied to I would immediately feel calm. I hope that happens soon but Iā€™m also doing my best not to get my hopes up too high. The previous decisions do not bode well for that outcome but different schools look for different things. If I do get accepted to one of my reaches I hope itā€™s soon so I can stop stressing tho lmao. Pray the Native boost is as real as some ppl say lol

Did you guys see the message ā€œyour materials have been received. Your application has been forwarded to the admissions staff for reviewā€? I was reading the 2018 thread and someone said she saw it.

I dont

I got an email around April 1st saying that they have started the review process and mine would be sent it was rly odd though.

But no msg on the portal or anything like that

They said that it was under the portal.

Btw, one of my grades in my mid-term was N/A because there was no assignments at that time. However, I got an A after the mid-term exam. Do you guys think I should update them about it? And since I thought mid-term reports have to be submitted before march 15, I asked my professors to fill in the form on mid to late February. Do you think it hurts my chance?

I donā€™t think it will hurt you can update them but if they already reviewed your application I doubt they will take it under consideration.

I did the same thing! I wouldnā€™t worry about it honestly, but you can always email them ^^

Anyone have anything other than ā€œinitiatedā€ on their financial aid portal? Reading last years posts, if you have ā€œorderedā€ than that pretty much signifies an acceptance, but Iā€™m assuming thereā€™s many other variables such as when it switches and stuff. (I personally still have initiated)

i only have ā€œinitiatedā€
