<p>I applied early. If I get in I'm going to thank God. Then I'm getting myself some Cornell gear, good food, and a movie night out with my friends. Maybe I'll splurge on some nice perfume or designer shoes. </p>
<p>Anyone hoping for something really big to celebrate?</p>
<p>I’m going to treat myself out to dinner with family, see a movie with friends, and then worry TREMENDOUSLY about financial aid. </p>
<p>As for actually seeing the decision, I would probably yell a lot.</p>
<p>Post how you would take a rejection too :)</p>
<p>I would probably stare at it, sigh a few times, then log off.</p>
<p>lol @Cortana, pretty much same thing here.</p>
<p>You know you gotta update that Facebook status so people know, that’s a given. No doubt in my mind I would cry, no freakin’ doubt. I always pictured myself being home alone so I would call my parents, sister, grandparents, professors, and anyone who supported me. Then I would have some champagne and just…relax.</p>
<p>Well, when I got in, I fist-pumped for about 20 minutes. I didn’t tell anyone outright that I got in (except my parents obviously). Instead, I wore my Cornell sweatshirt to school the next day. Since it was around the time acceptances were coming out, people asked “Are you wearing it for good luck?” and my answer was the simple, “No, I’m wearing it because I got in.” That was a good feeling.</p>
<p>Faint. Sob. Run the streets yelling. Pack my stuff. Faint again.</p>
<p>I always imagine myself leaving class (asking to go to the bathroom) to go to the computer lab and check if the decisions are up yet. If it’s a yes, I’ll probably scream my head off, get kicked out of the computer lab and probably sent to the office. If it’s a no, I’ll sigh, go to the bathroom, bawl, sigh, go back to class.</p>
<p>I’ve tried to convince myself that I’m not getting in though, so that I won’t be disappointed if I really don’t get in! Does anyone know when the results come out?</p>
<p>^Decisions don’t come out until 5 p.m. So your plan won’t work unless you can manage waiting until school the next day to find out. I don’t know if I could wait that long, knowing my decision is on my applicant account haha.</p>
<p>It’s 5pm Eastern, if aykayy lives anywhere west of EST, then he could very well still be in class.</p>
<p>mikeyc765, I wish I could do that! Like a boss! Haha. </p>
<p>I would be very upset if I get rejected. I’d still be in school when the results come out, and if I find out then, I feel like I would have a very difficult time not breaking down. 
But if I did get accepted and I found out during class, I would have a hard time containing my excitement. I would probably annoy my friends a lot, I probably won’t shut up about it. But hey, who can blame me? Hope it happens, haha.</p>
<p>Ah I live on the east coast so I guess I willlll be finding out at 5pm. I guess that’s good though, I would like having the ability to jump around and do a happy dance and scream my head off.</p>
<p>cortana431, Do you know what date the results come out? How do you know that they come out at 5pm? Has Cornell posted it somewhere? Because I can’t seem to find it anywhere</p>
<p>@CornellHub - fantastic idea and website, I like it! The interface is kinda confusing though - most people can just post anonymously?</p>
<p>@aykayy last year it came out I think december 7 or 8, it was a week early. And it comes out at 5 EST, not sure why but someone said that’s when the admissions office closes.</p>
<p>“it was a week early”? Does that mean results will come out on the 15th this year?</p>
<p>I think every year they say they expect results will be out on the 15th, since that’s mid-December. I don’t know how often the results come out earlier than the expected date, or if that will happen this year.</p>
<p>Okay from what I’ve seen on the CC posts, last year results came out on the 9th. Class of 2014 ED results came out on the 10th. Class of 2013 ED results came out on the 11th. I can’t find the date for the class of 2012. </p>
<p>Hopefully our year isn’t the one year that Cornell gets like a 50% increase in early applications.</p>
<p>amen to that stereotypical facebook status. i might add this
[Cornell</a> The Office Reference - YouTube](<a href=“Cornell The Office Reference - YouTube”>Cornell The Office Reference - YouTube)</p>
<p>I’d walk downstairs, sit at the dinner table really quietly, and keep my parents in suspense.</p>
<p>Then I’d take of my sweatshirt, reveal my Cornell shirt, and eat smiling.</p>
<p>It’d be assumed after that.</p>
<p>Then I’d go post on my Facebook, “Cornell '16.” And just watch the likes on my status go up all night.</p>
<p>Yes, on facebook i would put ACCEPTED CORNELL ENGINEERING CLASS OF 2016!!!</p>
<p>And if not, I would put: REJECTED CORNELL ENGINEERING!!! 
</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>I hate how it’s the day we have our senior field trip, and government planned a possible after school retreat that day (which I supported). I’m not gonna check at school, because I’m gonna break down crying :(</p>
<p>However, If I get in, I would text all my friends and go on amazon to buy the Cornell sweatshirt!! Once I receive it, I’m gonna wear it to school (we wear uniform, but who cares about one detention at this point?!) Then, I would treat my mom to dinner!</p>
<p>On the other hand… If I get rejected, my friends can find out when I get over it, and I’ll be really sad. I’d probably watch “dumb and dumber” just to feel better.</p>
<p>I’m worried about checking at school, too. I don’t like crying in public, haha.
The decision release date is close to my birthday, so I’m really worried it will ruin my birthday and the holidays. I’m praying I’ll get good results, though!</p>
