Official FALL 2013 Cornell Transfers Thread

<p>@nyjetsknicks, I emailed admissions and explicitly made them know that I was using AP credit for one requirement. I also sent a scan of my score report. Just make sure they are aware!</p>

<p>@SMRSMR Okay I’ll see what they say in response to my email, and if I’ll need to send anything else. Hopefully not!</p>

<p>you guys actually get responses back from admissions when you email? I’ve sent 2 or 3 and never heard a peep. Sent my transcripts 2.5 weeks ago wondering if it’s time to harass them and see if they opened two files for me</p>

<p>@SMRSMR Turns out that self-reporting is fine!
This was their response:
“Thank you for your interest in CALS! You are correct in your understanding that you do not need to send official AP scores until you have been accepted. At this point in the process, the self-reported scores are sufficient.”</p>

<p>@yolocholo, They’ve been really good about responding to me. I’ve gotten responses the day of in a couple hours, or I sent one last night and got the response this morning. I send the emails to CALS admissions…are you sending them to your school’s admissions email, or just a general one?</p>

<p>General admissions I get 0 response…when I contact HumEc admissions responses are immediate…I wonder if they can get involved in any way w/processing though? May try emailing them saying this stuff was submitted weeks ago and worry about a 2nd file sitting there as my common app was submitted 6 weeks after my LOR was mailed in.</p>

<p>@Yolocholo, you should call and ask to be transferred to processing. I remember you said you emailed stuff to HumEc directly; that may have caused some errors as all stuff needs to go to Transfer Admissions (PO Box 516, Ithaca etc…)</p>

<p>@Ravidrim, solid numbers, good luck!</p>

<p>@Collegedyp, Obviously a B- isn’t as good as an A, but you showed improvement with the A+ in macro. Does ILR require courses to be completed with a B or better?</p>

<p>@SMRSMR, ILR does not have “official” prerequisite courses but courses in some fields are encouraged to take. I assume ILR considers quantitative skills important and microeconomics are usually associated with math while macroeconomics are associated with theories…</p>

<p>@collegedyp, I think you’ll be okay as long as your overall GPA is good. Once course shouldn’t drown you, and it’s not that bad of a grade.</p>

<p>@collegedyp I called ILR, and for courses that aren’t related to ILR, the admissions woman told me to aim for at least a B-. In my case, I was struggling with Financial Accounting, and managed a B+ midterm grade, so I’m happy haha.</p>

<p>Anyone else still have nothing checked? I hope they got everything…</p>

<p>transcripts I mailed in 3+ weeks ago are still not checked off, however, the midterm report I mailed in 2 weeks ago just got check off online overnight…not sure what’s up over there but at least some things are getting marked off by processing</p>

<p>So is this the final list, no one else wanna join in?!</p>

<p>@yolocholo Same thing happened to me yesterday. I sent my college transcript in on 2/7 and then again 2 to 3 weeks ago and they still havent received it. I called them twice, but they have been helpful. they said that if we’re missin anything they would email back us in april… some ppl get their decisions in april…</p>

<p>@Kane402 I called ILR today, and the guy there said they’ve received everything except for the midterm report, which I sent yesterday. My applicant status page has yet to update (i.e. only the first two are checked)… I’d give them a call to look you up on the system.</p>

<p>@Kane402, though some people hear back early april, decisions continue to go out until the end of may, so don’t worry TOO much. You can imagine the thousands upon thousands of documents they have, and the hundreds of phone calls they get a week asking the same stuff that you are. I think if it is something really urgent, they will definitely contact you.</p>

<p>As an aside, this final part of the wait is the worst! only 2-3 more weeks til the first decisions start arriving…toooo longgg…</p>

<p>I applied to ILR. Like last year, the waiting game begins again. Good luck to everyone on the thread!</p>

<p>@ravidrim So u didn’t call the transfer department, but called the school u applied for?</p>

<p>My application status said sent for review at the beginning of this week…before I sent in my midterm report. They should have received the report by now, but I hope they add it to my application before they review it…</p>

<p>@Kane402, yes, I called the school directly since I sent the materials to the school directly. I realized later on that I should have sent them to that PO box, but they said either way works.</p>
