I attended an online webinar and an admission counsellor named Amanda confirmed they would review both apps from Dyson & SHA haha.
Donāt sweat it! If you are a competitive applicant to Cornell in general, itās very likely that youāre a competitive applicant to Dyson, acceptance rate be damned.
how to determine if a person is competitive?
Checklist just disappeared. ILR non TO.

It seems that checklists are disappearing throughout the day. Looking at last yearās thread, they seemed to continue to disappear until late afternoon.

Anyone who applied to engineering get a decision yet?
Not that Iāve seen. I was really hoping to get one this week, but I guess not.
Me too
for those that have their checklist gone, tell us ur decisions!!
Wait, thatās really interesting! It seems the relationship between Dyson and its placement in CALS and Johnson are more complex than I thought it would be.
Take a look at this flyer from the Dyson Undergraduate Council, which appears to address when Dyson joined SC Johnson (formerly CCB) in 2016, while also staying within CALS. It notes that for most purposes (including tuition, major requirements, and based on this separate Daily Sun article, student gov representation), Dyson will be staying within CALS for the most part.
So then, under the combined system, it seems that Johnson reviews the applications, but after acceptance the students technically ābelongā to CALS (though the actual education is in both).
Regardless, I get the feeling that this doesnāt change the initial question at hand ā which is whether CALS AEM and Dyson AEM applicants are reviewed by the same team.
I think what you said was right ā that Dyson students are reviewed by Johnson admissions ā but that just means that people who listed CALS AEM just get their apps forwarded to Johnson for review. On the CALS AEM degree website, it notes that it is ā[a]t the Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management,ā which means CALS AEM students are in Dyson. Correct me if Iām wrong?
From the staff directory, the admissions team people are different for both schools tho. You can check it out here:
For SHA: https://sha.cornell.edu/about/directory/departments/239/
For Dyson: https://as.cornell.edu/people
And if you dig a bit more about the history, yes Dyson used to belong to CALS but it seems to be independent now? I think this was mentioned in the webinar but Iām not so sure since I focused mainly on SHA. 
FYI this is the webinar: Cornell Business School Info Session - YouTube
Is Cornell really rolling admissions? Wondering since some who applied later are hearing sooner than the ones who applied earlier 
I donāt think itās rolling in that sense. I applied super early but still havenāt heard
Itās sort of random. Not very āfirst come first serveā kind of thing. I submitted my app around March 5th-ish and my decision is coming out today
anyone a rising soph who applied to cas with a checklist that hasnāt disappeared yet ??
