<p>I just called the school today and one of the representative told me that the CAS has re-evaluated the candidates. They said the notice will either go out later this week or early next week. DAmnnn....I wish i get off.</p>
<p>sounds good...</p>
<p>well, at least that means they are taking people off the waitlist</p>
<p>DAAAAMN.
I called on Friday and they gave me the "we won't know if we have to go to the waitlist till May 15th."</p>
<p>for which school kayrlis?</p>
<p>i was just wondering how long do schools usually keep people on waitlist and about how many kids does a school like Cornell put on the waitlist?
E</p>
<ul>
<li>good luck to everyone waiting</li>
</ul>
<p>they put a couple thousands on a waitlist</p>
<p>karylis - i got the same response last week</p>
<p>i think 2500 were offered a spot last year, 1500 accepted a spot, and in the end, 200 were taken off the waitlist</p>
<p>I just called CAS . . . they said the quota was met and no students are going to be taken off the list.</p>
<p>Well, there's always the transfer application . . .</p>
<p>well, that sucks.
that really surprises me, canadaeh, cause when I initially called (early april), they told me that they usually take a "couple hundred" off the waitlist.
i'm really disappointed.</p>
<p>edit: oh, and I'm talking about CAS too</p>
<p>anybody hear anything about engineering. I cant believe they arent taking anyone off the waitlist for CAS.</p>
<p>If i only knew, I would have applied to a less competitive college within Cornell. There is always the opportunity to transfer between schools. Gosh...if I only head how popular CAS is.</p>
<p>has anyone heard anything about human ecology?</p>
<p>so no one hasn't gotten even gt or anyting?
hmmm and i have a question. when i call them do i have to sound really formal and stuff? i am actually kind of fobbish if u know wat i mean (fresh off the boat.... came to the us like four years ago), so i am not really that good at sounding all fancy and fluent and formal. so frankly im kinda scared to call them cuz i might sound stupid.</p>
<p>u dont have to give them ur name...</p>
<p>what about CALS... are they done with that wait list?</p>
<p>I'm as dissapointed as you are guys, especially since chamnan said CAS was re-evaluating candidates. I thought for sure they were going to take some off the list.</p>
<p>I called, and asked when waitlistees could hear back. She told me "Letters will be mailed next week". I thought this was a good sign, you know, acception/rejection letters. Then she told me "But I'm sorry, we met our quota this year and we aren't even going to look at the list."</p>
<p>did u ask her whether they will give out gt's, though?</p>
<p>lol i'd take a guarenteed transfer, I'm not sure if I'd ever use it but it couldn't hurt ; )</p>
<p>i just realized that I mistyped beofre:
a couple hundred on the waitlist, 30 or so taken off last year.</p>
<p>I'm surprised that such a jump from 30 to 0 would be made in a year.</p>
