<p>Did anyone get a likely letter today? My son got one. Obviously, we are thrilled. I was surprised they started sending them so early.</p>
<p>Congrats. Did you get a call too, or just a letter in the mail?</p>
<p>Letter in the mail…</p>
<p>You’re a junior in HS with a kid :O?</p>
<p><a href=“Chance me please!!! - Cornell University - College Confidential Forums”>Chance me please!!! - Cornell University - College Confidential Forums;
<p>Are you an athlete?</p>
<p>Not an athlete. He submitted his app pretty early - mid November. That may have helped.</p>
<p>I received one as well! I’m ecstatic right now! Also, I did get it in the mail and I am not an athlete. I sent in my app very late, around January 6th. I actually wasn’t going to apply until they sent me the letter to apply. Thank God for that letter! I feel so blessed rigt now. Congrats to the OP too!</p>
<p>Son got one today as well. We are estatic.</p>
<p>sooo jealous 
:)</p>
<p>congrats guys!!! you’re all so lucky :D</p>
<p>How close to New Hampshire are those of you who received letters today? My S is a student there and packages/letters from us can take anywhere from two to five days to reach him.</p>
<p>Congrats everyone! A likely letter must take a lot of the stress off of the entire process.</p>
<p>You guys got me so excited that I actually ran to my mail box and I threw it open and guess what!!!</p>
<p>… My parents got their W2 for 2010 in the mail! YES! :)</p>
<p>OMG! I got my likely letter today! Im so happy. This made my week.
BTW I am not an athlete and I live in Houston, Texas.</p>
<p>I hope I can get in! 
AHHHH
congrats to everyone</p>
<p>Can those of you that got in post some information like when you applied, did you have an interview and your stats. I know every situation is different but it’s fun to compare and hope! Oh and congratulations to you all!</p>
<p>I got one today. I’m really, really excited. I’m kind of surprised because I submitted my app relatively late (Mid-december) and didn’t interview yet but this is really really exciting for me.</p>
<p>For the people above, I live pretty far from NH and am not an athlete.</p>
<p>I got one today too, soooo freaking excited! I’m not an athlete, live in CO, don’t really have any hooks (sorry, I feel very unhelpful!). Is this pretty much a guarantee? To be honest, I <em>really, truly</em> was not expecting to get in, so this entire thing is so surreal. My family and I are just so, so excited, I’d hate for it to not come through… Thanks and congrats/good luck to everyone else!</p>
<p>We live in New York. My son also has no hooks — he has a high gpa, good SAT scores, is a National Merit Semifinalist and decent extra-curriculars. I wish I could be more helpful…</p>
<p>SJMATHUR- I think it is a guarantee unless you fail a class, get arrested or plagiarize.<br>
Congrats to you!!!</p>
<p>Can the likely letter recipients please briefly post their stats?</p>
<p>agree with mathematicism, when were the letters postdated?
congratulations to all those who received it.</p>
<p>I had a 2300, 36, and 4.0 as far as stats go.</p>
