congrats
Thanks everyone, I did send a LOCI the weekend before May 1st to the portal as well as via email to Cornell University and CALS. Cornell sent a basic confirmation email, but CALS sent me a long email on May 2 that said (among other things):
âWe also appreciate you reaching out to share your recent updates, more about your fit for Cornell CALS and that that you remain highly interested in fall 2023 admission. It sounds like youâve had a busy, exciting and productive past few months! We can confirm that this letter of continued interest has been successfully added to your application file.â IDK if this is a generic email but I was definitely pretty stoked about the implications.

Congratulations RiShi! Its been such a tough application of male Chinese stem students, hopefully I can be in your position next week, also as a student at CALSđ.
Congrats! How did you know you were admitted? Did they send a email to you saying you were admitted or there was an application update on your portal?
Haha, Iâm Indian-American myself in bio (and also adding CS when I get there), but best of luck next week!

No, there was an email saying like [IMPORTANT] CALS Admission waitlist update or something along those lines

does the Cals base on gender and region for selection? I was puzzled for this. Guess my chance is getting slim to none!

Congratulations. Itâs super frustrating as our college counselors will not let us do anything other than input the LOCI into the portal.
Our counselors told us that CALS admits by gender as well as major (but who knows!)
** they also told us to only submit the LOCI and any grade updates 
through the portal
Iâm thinking at this point if my son received an email from them on 4/21 and submitted additional information probably has no chance in getting in anymore.
Congratulations
Lowkey I donât think I was supposed to either but idgaf not like they would have said yes and by sending an email they would be like oh this guy doesnât follow directions and rescind it â how are the college counselors gonna monitor this?

I assume it is optional. Does a student have to send the updated grade?

I am thinking that they did say to reach out to them if you have any questions so I donât know how that can be a bad thing.
