thank you note

<p>I was going to write thank you notes to my teachers and counselor who wrote me recommendations, but I never considered writing a thank you note to Cornell University.</p>

<p>Apparently, a lot of students send thank you notes to the college also?? Are any of you guys going to?</p>

<p>haha I also am giving cards to my teachers, but I don’t think I’m sending anything to Cornell. That 400 dollar deposit is thanks enough</p>

<p>Have some dignity man, they didn’t do any favors letting you in, they accepted you cause you deserved it. A thank you card seems kinda weird imo. Definitely send to teachers though</p>

<p>haha ok
this was the random article that i read about it [Thank-You</a> Note Enters College Admission Game - New York Times](<a href=“Thank-You Note Enters College Admission Game - The New York Times”>Thank-You Note Enters College Admission Game - The New York Times)</p>

<p>@concretepencil94 - if you had an interview, then it would be appropriate to send a thank you note to your interviewer. Alumni who conduct interviews are typically not paid for their time, so a note of thanks is appreciated. As the article points out though, notes sent in to an admissions office are typically strategic in nature (ulterior motive) and sent before the decision is made. The fact that you would think to send a note of thanks after being chosen speaks well of your character.</p>

<p>As a member of the Admissions Ambassadors Network, there is no need to send a note to us (besides, you should have sent a thank you note after you met with an ambassador). We’re thrilled for everyone who gets in, and also disappointed for the ones who don’t. The person you met with won’t find out until early this week that you were accepted (Cornell wants those accepted to find out without being told by a local alumnus), so you can drop them a note and say, “hey, I was admitted to Cornell and I’m super excited. I would enjoy getting together again before the summer,” or something like that. </p>

<p>It’s always nice to hear from those we speak to who were admitted. But we do it because we enjoy moments like these, not for the thank yous.</p>

<p>Congratulations, by the way.</p>

<p>oh, my alumni interviewer emailed me already saying congrats yesterday lol. i emailed him a thank you note in response.</p>

<p>Writing a thank you note to teachers is always nice!</p>

<p>Writing a thank you note to Cornell – will not make any difference as you’ve already been accepted. However, it’s always nice. If you want to do so, go ahead.</p>
