<p>Congratulations to all accepted to Cornell.</p>
<p>You now are entering the place which has been the alma mater to many a great people. You have cleared the first hurdle in your journey to success and deserve to celebrate.</p>
<p>If Cornell couldn't offer you a place this year, it's probably because of the immensely large number of applicants this year. You certainly have a propserous path ahead of still.</p>
<p>If you were waitlisted, you were among the BEST...but Cornell has only limited number of seats. But there still is hope, so cheer up. </p>
<p>Please take a moment, though, to share your stats with the rest of us.</p>

<p>a request:
i was hoping to create some-sort of data-bank of all students with their stats, which we could make an IMPORTANT thread.
Since the other RD thread seemed to cluttered, i was hoping maybe u guys could also post a copy of ur stats here so that we could PM the mod and give the rightful status of IMPORTANT.
Thanking you
Yours sincerely
