<p>I know Cornell requires only one professor recommendation, but do you guys think getting more could be helpful or harmful? I'm thinking of getting three, I don't know if the extras will be great, I'm fairly sure they won't be bad, but they are probably generally comments since the I don't think those two professors know me that well enough to write a spectacular recommendation from a semester of mere interaction during lecture. But should I ask for it anyway?</p>
<p>well im getting three too- i dont think theyll mind a couple extra, from what ive been told. however, if theyre really not going to add anything, u prob shouldnt even bother.</p>
<p>I'm sendin in two. One from my prof. and the other from my HS English teacher.</p>
<p>you're better off sending 1 good one rather than 1 good one and 2 other medicore ones.</p>
<p>I'm sending 3 outstanding ones.</p>
<p>Hey kkl230, you sent in part I right? Did you get any sort of confirmation? Are we going to be able to check app status online?</p>
<p>I got my login info already.. so yes, I'm able to check on the status online.</p>
<p>Ahh I haven't received anything, it was sent a week ago.. I'm seriously starting to worry if I put enough stamps, I knew I should have put two...
Did they send your login info by email or snail mail?</p>
<p>by snail mail.</p>
<p>maybe u can call to check.</p>
<p>so CNCL, ur done with ur apps completely?</p>
<p>No I wish... Still struggling... with the essays. I am hoping to get the entire thing out by mid-feb... that's a month early, but I doubt I could with everything thats going on. How about you?
Plus I sent the secondary school report earlier than I did with part 1, do you think that's a problem? Since by the time they received my secondary school, there wouldnt be an open file for me yet... now excuse me for being an annoy worrier</p>
<p>Hey,</p>
<p>Not sure if that will be a problem. But wait until you get your login info. Once you get it, you can check. How long has it been since submitting part I? Don't want to wait too loong before telling them that you haven't received your login stuff yet.</p>
<p>I'm done with my apps. Just going through the final revisions with the essay. Should be in the mail midweek.</p>
<p>I ended up with following recs:</p>
<p>2 HS recs: from college advisor and school principal
Dean of Arts and Sciences from current college
College counselor
English professor
World Bank </p>
<p>Total 6 recs...and I was accepted to Cornell Arts and Sciences :)</p>
<p>This year I will have: College Dean, College President, Accounting Dept Chair, English Professor, and World Bank :)</p>
<p>I sent part i on last Friday or Saturday, so it's a little over a week by now, and I haven't received anything in mail... Does it really take that long for them to process this?</p>
