Cornell waitlist 2026

Just got the TO from Human Ecology

could you share what the email said?

I donā€™t think so. At this point Iā€™m hoping for a transfer option from CALS, which is still possible for all of us. Also CALS accepts by major, meaning that they waitlist by major, so one personā€™s acceptance off the waitlist in CALS should be independent for another (unless youā€™re in the same major).

Earlier this spring, you asked us to keep your name on our wait list in case we were able to make any more offers of admission for the 2022 fall semester. We now have a clear picture of the number of students who will be enrolling. While we regret to inform you that we will not have a place to offer you this fall, the College of Human Ecology to which you applied has decided to extend you a Transfer Option to join Cornell after study at another institution.

You will receive more information from the College of Human Ecology and should you have questions, please contact the college to which you applied and have been offered the Transfer Option.

For those who have gotten in at Cornell off the waitlist, are any of you receiving a financial aid package at the time of your acceptance?

What did it say?

Have you?

Is this the same for CAS?

My child heard back yesterday from Human Ecology and the email contained no TO, just an option to apply to transfer at a later date. Iā€™m curious whether you took any steps to demonstrate interest and, if so, what they were. Thank you.

Hi all, Has anyone heard from CoE wait list yet?

ā€œI hope this finds you well. Cornellā€™s College of Arts & Sciences would like to consider you for an offer of admission for the fall 2022 semester. We are given a short window of time to move forward with our waitlist enrollment process ā€“ if you are still interested in attending Cornell, we request your response to this email by 8am EDT tomorrow. If we do not hear from you within this time frame, we will move on to considering other applicants for admission.ā€ Its language feels slightly different from what earlier waitlist applicants received last week.

Can you tell us what major? Did you receive one of the emails asking you to confirm your continued interest before you received the admit?

I doubt so because CAS accepts by school, not major. CALS accepts by major

Congratulations. Yes it is slightly different but it still means you are most likely admitted. It seems like they are rolling out email to applicants one by oneā€¦ I havenā€™t heard anyone else say they received this email yesterday.

I just got accepted canā€™t believe my eyes biomedical engineering

Congrats. What was the process? Got an email, asked to confirm, then offer?

Thank you!! I got the same email as the others did, basically saying ā€œThank you for waiting, we would like to offer you admission, please respond in 24 hours.ā€ Basically if I accept I will receive a portal update with the official acceptance (basically the same as regular decision applicants) and from there I can submit the deposit and everything. I hope you get the same email sometime soon, best wishes.
