Cornell Waitlist Class of 2025

Hi, do you mind clarifying about getting the waitlist decisions after decision day? We were notified of the waitlist option on Ivy Day (decision day).

No, like they got notification of whether they were admitted off the waitlist or not

is that a past trend? i hope we will start to hear back starting monday

Are we still late to send materials?

i’m not sure. last year might have been different because the yield rate was at a historic low. but yeah, i think waitlist decisions should come out next week or next next week because cornell housing apps are due on may 16th, so i’d assume waitlist people get their results before that

I do realize that some students will receive their waitlist decision close to the decision day and that might be the case for students this year, but I think that the student sent in their loci before May 3 and they’re likely fine. My guess is no better than anyone else but I do think that waitlist decision will be slightly later this year (not just Cornell other colleges too).

Oh gosh, that means our chance of getting off at this point is even slimmer…. Didn’t know some got taken off already.

nope! that’s not what they mean to say: i think what they’re talking about is last year’s decision day. ie May 1st. so after committing on May 1st, many already got their decisions from the waitlist by May 2nd. by decision day, they mean commitment day. no one has gotten off the cornell waitlist yet.

Thanks for clarifying.

I heard people got off the wailist today
