<p>I'm unable to create a Cornell account, even though I copied the pin # straight from the email and I know the date of birth is correct (I checked the commonapp). Is anyone else experiencing troubles? Should I call the office?</p>
<p>how long after u submitted the application did it take for the email to arrive? cuz 6 hours passed and i havent received any email from cornell.</p>
<p>Umm, I would think it takes a fair bit of time to process your application, process the fee, send everything to the right place, etc. The common app server must be flooded right now, think about it.</p>
<p>so there is nothing to worry about?</p>
<p>for me the email arrived in about 5 minutes. does ne one have the answer to my original question?</p>
<p>i have the same problem!</p>
<p>I emailed the office and they responded, with the EXACT SAME email as the one they first sent me, with the EXACT SAME pin #. btw, my B-day was correct too...I have no idea what to do -__-</p>
<p>haha aright i'm glad i'm not the only one stuck in this situation. Do u plan to just wait and keep trying?</p>
<p>i am gonna wait for 2 more wks...let them sort things out...but yeah, what r u planning to do? i seriously have no clue -__-</p>
<p>i'm gonna wait it out too. I figured if they're missing ne thing, they'll contact me.</p>
<p>OMG. I don't know what's w/ CORNELL, but they sent me another email with the exact same thing. exact same PIN. and guess what? I still can't log in. Who checks their emails? A robo?</p>
<p>ask them to make an account for you while ur on the phone with them</p>
<p>yea right now i have 3 identical emails from cornell sitting in my inbox</p>
<p>how long does it take to come if u used postal mail?</p>
<p>last year there were some issues with similarities in the apppearance of characters, like capital "i", number "1", and lower case "L" try seeing if that does the trick.</p>
<p>i copied the pin # straight from the email though. Are you saying the email may have errors? It's just CU and a 10 digit number</p>
<p>but they sent the same email with the same PIN...I think it's an automated system...</p>
