Cuny Admissions fall 2016

How long after it says “your application is complete, the colleges listed will contact you shortly” do you receive a decision

Idk and this frustrating me! Did any of your college links disappear on your home page though? Hunter did for me…

@ems2016 Baruch did for me

If you don’t mind me asking, but did you get rejected?

@ems2016 No decision yet

I just found a forum on this same subject from last year, 2-27-2015, (member, Roosey) “So i discovered something in the CUNY portal, when you log in and see “College Links” if one of the colleges you applied to isn’t there, that means you got rejected. Cause Queens disappeared for me a few days ago and i just got an email saying they rejected me”

In my case, my portal is telling me that I will “receive notification from ONLY ONE college choice shortly” and the link for York has disappeared. When I called the hotline, it basically just repeated the same message, but only mentioned that I’ll get an answer from Hunter. So it looks like if a link is gone, you’re not in, if the link is still there, you’re in?

I can’t believe Hunter would accept me, with a 35% acceptance rate and a top 50 regional-North ranking, but York would reject me, with a 65% acceptance rate and NO ranking to speak of. What is happening!?! I really don’t want to take a bus and a train and a walk to class and back when I could just take a nice 15 min bike ride in my neighborhood. But I guess I’m grateful to have gotten in at all? I’m so confused. I graduated in the top 1% of my public HS, and my SAT was 2020, and I have a degree from Vassar… and York rejected me? YORK?

More on my situation: I already have a degree from Vassar, I’m switching career paths and going for my second degree so technically I’m a transfer student. Only 3 CUNYs have BSN programs, I applied to York as a first choice (it’s in walking distance from me) and Hunter (45 min trek away) just to give myself options.

im so sorry! im trying to get into hunter, but my sats are soo low, but gpa is so high! i think im gonna get rejected

you might get in! my friend had a high gpa and low sat score and got into hunter! so keep your hopes up!!

Its been a week since my status has changed to ‘will contact you shortly’ and I still havent heard anything from anyone. I called the hotline and they said my first choice (Baruch) has made a decision already. So maybe 2 weeks.

@msrbl08 i called the hotline and they said they would contact people as early as this week or the second week of april the latest.
i just got my result and I applied January 20th.

@lama101 and what did your portal said? Did it ever show nothing? Is cause I applied around that date too but my portal doesn’t say anything

I got mine too few hours after I posted a comment :slight_smile:

Hey I’m transferring from a university in PR and my application status changed today I think but when I call the operator says that City College will contact me in two weeks but when it repeats it it doesn’t say any college and non of my colleges have gone away

Chances are that you have been accepted to City College.
