First Wave of Rolling Decisions

<p>Well, they are coming soon for CALS, COE, and IRL, so I was wondering if anyone had any information on what day they will exactly being. Also, do the best applicants only recieve the decisions at this time, or everyone? Also, are there only acceptances sent this early?</p>

<p>The College of Engineering doesn't have rolling admissions.</p>

<p>I would assume that only acceptances are sent early.</p>

<p>I applied 5 yrs ago CALS bioloy, and I received my acceptance letter on March 19th i think.</p>

<p>Sorry I mean College of Human Ecology, my bad.</p>

<p>I hope they let the deferreds know right away and end this torture!</p>

<p>Last year the first round of rolling decisions came out March 6. Good luck everyone!</p>

<p>Oh wow, that's later than I thought starbound. As for SVMMom, I don't think deferrals come out until later due to the purpose of seeing what the regular pool is like. Anyway, I thought I remember reading somewhere that contract Cornell schools are going to start in February, but I can't say that for sure.</p>

<p>I just wanna know my decision. I'll be more than happy to get a Guaranteed Transfer, considering the fact that I am an international applying for a contract college. I hope to go to UC Berkeley for my first year if I get a GT.</p>

<p>the hotel school has rolling as well. How they do it is they send out the first wave of acceptances to the best candidates. As these students either accept or not, the schools then go to their next best candidates and so forth. The time you hear back depends on the strength of your application.</p>

<p>Ugh, I wonder when ILR'll get back to me.... :(</p>

<p>Rolling admissions at Cornell?!?!</p>

<p>When did this happen!?</p>

<p>what does guaranteed transfer mean?????</p>

<p>Rolling admission has been there for a while
Guaranteed transfer means that if you maintain a certain GPA(~3.5) you'll be able to transfer to Cornell for your sophomore year.
Btw, I thought rollin took place in the middle of February....damnation</p>

<p>College of Human Ecology has rolling admissions??</p>

<p>Wait, wait, wait.</p>

<p>How can you take advantage of rolling admissions, and when is the first wave?</p>

<p>It's really not rolling admissions in the classical sense, it's rolling acceptances, in that some of the schools will start informing the stronger applicants of their acceptances. </p>

<p>Everybody still needs to apply by the same date -- there is no advantage to applying earlier -- and everybody rejected will hear on the same date.</p>

<p>I thought that all the schools in the Ivy League had agreed to a common notification date. How can Cornell maintain this agreement and also send out some decisions on a rolling basis?</p>

<p>At first I thought it might have to do with whether or not a particular program was likely to have cross-applicants at other Ivy League schools. For example, there's only one Hotel program in the Ivy League, so sending out acceptances in February wouldn't really give Cornell an advantage over the other schools. But that doesn't make sense because there are lots of cross-applications between ILR and other Ivy League schools. </p>

<p>So what's the deal? How does Cornell get around the common notification agreement?</p>

<p>I think only CAS, maybe Engineering, is bounded by that agreement. It's similar to U Penn's Nursing school - it is also rolling admission.</p>

<p>bcos the state contract schools are exempt?</p>

<p>CALS faq.. if this helps.</p>

<p>When will I be notified of a decision?</p>

<p>The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences will notify select regular decision applicants in early March (before March 15th). However, a majority of applicants will be notified on the common Ivy League notification deadline. No decisions will appear on a student's self-service account until the Ivy League notification deadline. If you apply Early Decision you will receive a decision in mid-December. Fall transfer applicants will receive their decision between the end of April through early June. Spring transfer applicants will receive their decision in mid to late December.</p>
