<p>how are people finding out so early? I thought they didn't let people know until like March 31st or something...</p>
<p>I think thats for engineering.</p>

<p>what exactly IS the hotel school?</p>
<p><a href="http://www.hotelschool.cornell.edu/%5B/url%5D">http://www.hotelschool.cornell.edu/</a></p>
<p>so when can you apply to the hotel school? you said rolling admissions? when can I apply for fall 2007 freshmen.</p>

Essays: i am actually really proud of thems, cornell supp kind of weak
Teacher Recs: I only read one and was amazed, i learned characteristics about myself i never knew I had.
Counselor Rec: great, spent a lot of time preparing and discussing
School Type: Competitive Catholic school, 600 students
Ethnicity: Hispanic
Gender: male
Other Factors: My first language is Spanish so that might explain my low SAT score.
Why I think I was accepted/deferred: strong GPA with the strongest courseload available in my school, History buff with international science awards? My ethnicity might have also helped.
Other thoughts: I was suspeded a total of two times for dumb things and was in both times part of a larger group.</p>
<p>This "official" thread is so cluttered. Can we make a new one with JUST acceptances/rejections/waitlists?</p>
<p>when did you guys find out? was it online or through the regular mail?
is it a bad sign that i haven't heard yet? (please say no, but be honest . . . ahhhh, i'm scared)</p>
<p>i agree with comflsomh. -_-</p>
<p>hopingforthebest, this is the worst sign possible...ur a certain reject...</p>
<p>common...u obviously know that hardly a few pwople here have recieved likely letters and actual letters of acceptances...also, likely letters are given out to only 5-10% of the app pool...it, BY NO WAY, means that ur out of the race</p>
<p>How do u get in with a 1800 SAT !!
Edit: NM</p>
<p>i was wonderin the same thing...r u a counter-thesis to Darwin's 'Survival of the Fittest'???</p>
<p>by being an URM</p>
<p>i don't think you can just say URM and that's it
not to be a wet blanket here, but sharkie clearly has much more going for him/her than that (impressive list of ecs, tough courses, etc.)</p>
<p>although that might've helped, i'm going to have to mommy the thread and say 'just say no to labeling others!'</p>
<p>I actually think sharkie's likely letter shows some hope for us all! It proves that Cornell is NOT just looking at numbers... (like some schools. <em>cough</em> WashU <em>cough</em>) they actually look at extracurriculars and internships and jobs and GPA and course load and so on... sharkie, you are my hero :)</p>
