Cornell University Fall 2020 Transfer

@aspiringgirl @kavan716 have you guys tried the pin trick?

I have this same problem too actually. However, since I’m a new member, I can’t initiate private messages. Could you shoot me a message? Much appreciated man.

@DrewGonz19 pin trick didn’t work for me. I am not expecting a decision during the first wave or even this month. I submitted my app last week, so I do not believe they have reviewed it yet.

@kavan716 when you say “things were removed on my portal” are you referring to your applicant portal or to your financial aid portal?

and when people refer to your transcript status changing, which portal is this in regard to?

@ingsquid finical aid portal. also, they’re referring to the finical aid portal.

all of my financial aid information was removed from my portal but my transcript still says initiated. It has been like that for a while.

The spring thread said that when the fin-aid portal disappears, the decision comes out the next day but not sure if it’s accurate.

It should change from initiated to order if admitted but that’s supposed to happen like a day before the decision is released I believe

Sometimes we try to look for answers in every little thing. My fin aid portal disappeared but I know for a fact that I am not getting my decision tomorrow

I feel like the only verifiable theory is the pin trick

There shouldn’t be decision coming out this week, but if your transcript changes from initiated to ordered this week it means you are in and will receive a decision next Tuesday

@Newyorkkidd So this “ordered” status is only supposed to show up on the financial aid portal, yes? Bummer I didn’t apply for aid. Any other way of knowing for those who don’t have access to the fin-aid portal? :frowning:

Yeah only for people who applied for financial aid, if you didn’t well you will have to wait until you get your decision

or the pin trick

The pin trick only works if you’re getting a decision the next day

How do you know if the pin trick did or didn’t work? I tried it today and received an email to reset my password.

@seattle77 That means it worked and a decision has been made for you.

@seattle77 text me privately I think it worked for me too and my decision was made, but did you applied last year?

Yeah nvm it was the pin from high school

How do you guys know when decisions will be released?
