<p>I know there's an Official Spring Transfers thread.
But it's kind of confusing to read ALLL those post when they're honestly not related to one's specific admissions.
So I created this thread SPECIFICALLY for prospective students who applied to ILR to make things much simpler and basically because we have a lot in common.</p>
<p>i sent my midterm report last saturday.
does anyone know how long it might take to get a response?
and omg. I checked my application yesterday to see what I wrote and apparently, my response for the “extracurriclar” experience got cut off. And I didn’t even realize it. omg.
and did most of you speak to Ian for the phone interview?
can’t wait til we get a response. good luck yall</p>
<p>spoke to Ian last week for my interview and he said we should hear during the last two weeks of November…have you heard anything different</p>
<p>that’s also what I was told. I think we’ll hear either right before thanksgiving or right after. at least we will most likely be home to receive our letters!</p>
<p>When I had my interview with Ian he said 1) ILR won’t start to review your app without the the midterm report and 2) expect notification anywhere from ‘mid November to early December’. Also, I’ve heard that we may receive phone calls from ILR if we get in?</p>
<p>I’m curious, do you all have ECs/work experience relating to the ILR program? I have a fair amount of relevant internship/volunteer experience and got some great comments on it during the interview. Really hoping this gives my app the edge it needs…</p>
<p>Thanks so much for creating this. It’s been difficult to skim through all the posts and see which ones apply to ILR. Do we have any idea of how many people on CC are applying this spring? </p>
<p>@transfer soon, I have work experience related to ILR because that is what got me interested in it. I would imagine that most transfers have something because we’ve had time to figure out what we really want to do and had time to do something relevant to ILR. I’m sure that if you got comments on your interview then you will do well and that it helped you a lot. That’s great!! :)</p>
<p>@transfersoon possibly a notification by phone? wow, didn’t know that.
then for the next couple of days/weeks im gonna have to check my emails, mailbox, AND pickup all my phone calls. wowww…<br>
and if you don’t mind, what did they comment on about your experiences? or your app?</p>
<p>@qawsed without revealing what my specific experiences were, my interviewer mentioned that it was good to see someone taking on lots of things/being busy. Additionally, there was a company I worked for which he thought was ‘impressive’ and wanted to hear more about what I did there. Same goes for a volunteer activity I did that relates pretty closely to ILR. He didn’t comment on my application as a whole though and actually said they had not started to review it yet.</p>
<p>Just got accepted to ILR at 1:30 today!! Mr. Schachner called me and said he would be pleased if I were to join Cornell in the spring. I didnt receive an email but he said reg mail will come to my house on monday.</p>
<p>Good luck to all of you! Praying for you</p>
