15

or 17

twilit nebula
#

lower than that i think

brazen vine
#

i don't think their acceptance rate would drop like >5%

#

in one yr

twilit nebula
#

19% got ed last year

brazen vine
#

yea

#

ed is prob gonna be 17

Are there any internationals who got tax form request?

yea

that's what i'm thinking also mesu

green wind
#

I feel like 2019 isn't accurate anymore

forest heron
#

well, columbia defers 60%

green wind
#

too many things changed over the pandemic and after

#

imo but idk

spark glade
forest heron

looks like around 24?

#

i saw someone talking about their deferral policy (columbia)

forest heron
#

ig that means if you get deferred, you actually have a decent chance of still making it in

#

compared to other ivies

spark glade
#

think that they make it clear if you're going to be deferred earlier itself?

green wind
#

did not know that

#

interesting

brazen vine
#

yea

#

lmaoo

sonic smelt
crude creek
#

I would rather get a deny then get deferred

green wind
#

defer gives you that uncertainty but at least you didn't get flat out rejected

rain dust
#

I'd always take a defer personally, so I was curious.

forest heron
#

esp since cornell seems to admit a greater % of its defers than smth like pton or columbia which defer 65%+

green wind
#

columbia deferring 65% and sifting through their applicants just to still be the #2 school in New York

#

truly unfortunate

sonic smelt
#

deferral over rejection always

green wind
#

if I got flat out rejected I'd be so sad

sonic smelt
#

literally

green wind
#

huge ego blow too 😭

sonic smelt
green wind
#

I mean I can understand where they're coming from

#

since if you get deferred your changes go down significantly so you might just end up getting rejected

#

so in that sense, a defer is just a longwinded rejection

#

but you gotta believeee

fallow sand
#

i would also rather get denied

#

my ED2 Is NYU

#

and i’d hate to not ED2 there on the slight chance i get into cornell in RD

#

like I hope these mfers want me, or not

#

not sum pussy ass maybe later honey

green wind
#

eh, I think it's still good that they consider you a competitive applicant

#

just a game of roulette at the end of the day

graceful coral
#

does anyone know what the ED acceptance rate for CoE is?

green wind
#

Rough estimate would probably be 15-20%

#

iirc A&S was ~20%

#

or am I thinking about the acceptance rate as a whole. Who knows

#

I think it's overall 20% but schools like CALS, HUMEC, SHA pull up the statistics a little bit because they have higher acceptance rates so

ornate moth
#

CoE ED is not 20%.. really?

#

whens it coming out man

green wind
ornate moth
#

are u sure?

green wind
#

last year it was the 13th so

green wind
#

iirc last year it was dec 13th at 7:30 pm EST

ornate moth
#

dec 15th

green wind
#

hm I remember getting mine on the 13th

#

yeah I'm looking at my email and I received an email on the 14th that confirmed the decision on the 13th

spark glade
#

yep

#

this years it'll come out 15th

ornate moth
#

yeah

green wind
#

ooo fun fun

why else would i be upset over not getting idoc request 😦

spark glade
#

ahh okay

#

Just wanted to confirm my bad

forest heron
#

wait u just didn’t get a request??

vale pond
#

yeah i didnt

#

its prolly cuz they rejected even before the final round of consideration

forest heron
#

noo don’t say that

vale pond
#

i realize that maybe a bit too pessimistic

forest heron
#

were ur stats competitive

vale pond
#

well considerably

#

top 2-3 positions of class, soon to be published author, india's IOAA team finalist etc

#

but then idk, its cornell and you never know how competitive your competitors are

forest heron
#

i mean that’s definitely good enough to ensure u don’t get filtered out

#

there’s no way they would’ve decided that early for u

vale pond
#

yeah well lets hope for something postive

forest heron
#

so dont fret

vale pond
#

ohhh

#

so they are seperate? like doesnt fin aid office decide who to give tata scholarship to?

muted hearth
#

yea for intl financial stuff is confirmed too cuz need aware

#

Do yall know how many ed applicants there were for cornell?

#

I heard yale was like 7000+

ornate moth
#

9,500

#

approx

#

Cornell has not yet released their ED acceptance data from the 2021-22 admissions cycle. We do know that there were roughly 9,500 ED applicants to the Class of 2026.

There were 9,017 early decision applicants to the Class of 2025; 1,930 were accepted. This works out to a 21.4% acceptance rate. This was a lower rate of success than the 24% figure encountered by the Class of 2025. There were 6,630 ED applicants for the Class of 2025.

glacial delta
#

Damn wtf 😭😭

ornate moth
#

thats very good tbh

glacial delta
#

Holding onto that 20%

#

Better than other ivies

#

Yeah

ornate moth
#

i think its around ~23% acceptance, 25% defer

glacial delta
#

25…

ornate moth
#

so 50% reject

#

assume 30% of the class is people who dont have any shot because they shotgun to the "easy" ivy

#

decent odds

fading eagle
#

do different majors have different acceptance rate

ornate moth
#

for sure

fading eagle
#

do they release historical data categorized by majors

glacial delta
#

Ik for human ecology college the acceptance rate is like 20 smth

fading eagle
#

hmmmm i'm applying for the hotel administration, it's not that popular like cs, so just a bit curious whether the acceptance rate would be higher

lusty chasm
#

isn’t the human ecology one technically a state school?

#

ig the acceptance rate accounts for more in state applicants

glacial delta
#

The farming techniques ones is a state school

lusty chasm
#

yeah the suny stuff. i’m not too familiar with how that works but i heard more in state applicants get into those cause there’s favouring

glacial delta
#

Idk the name, but its smth w agriculture

#

Yeah cuz sunys and cunys are usually for new york residents

lusty chasm
#

yeah cals is one

Seeing smart kids w similar stats getting rejected from their ED’s at my school just scares me that I’m not gonna get into Cornell 😭

there are so many online tools that can do it

probably refresh rate

why do I have a feeling that isn't going to end well thonk

#

I didn't get finaid mail, probably gonna be rejected coolcry

forest heron
#

was there a new finaid mail?

crude creek
low pasture
#

no but they requested tax forms from intl students I believe

#

That can mean 3 things;

#

1- Rejection 2- We don't fill tax returns in my country 3- I wont get finaid

Middle East?

ur overthinking it lmao

just wait 5 days

they request it from everyone that applied for finaid

i think

Yeah they do

I didn’t apply for finaid. I didn’t get it

I mean I didn't get it, and it didnt even appear on my IDOC

That means your all set p sure

#

My docs are jst sitting there

What’s IDOCv

#

?

low pasture

If u dont, that means they have all ur documents

glacial delta
#

Wait did u request fin aid?

steady lava

#

@glacial delta Did Cornell appear in your idoc just after you submitted your css?

glacial delta
#

If u applied thru common app they ask you if u want fin aid

#

Yeah

steady lava
#

Just share a screenshot and everything will be cleared up

glacial delta
#

^^

low pasture
#

checked with 2 people

sonic smelt
#

yeah cornell doesnt have a question like that in the commonapp

#

you just need to send them css and that stuff if u want to be considered for finaid

glacial delta
#

Oh my bad, i think i was talking about another college.

#

Just email the financial aid department

#

Thats what i did

steady lava
#

Did people match through questbridge for Cornell

glacial delta

They’ll help with it

Sorry I barely have an idea what Questbridge is

Multiple lmfaoo

😦

glacial delta

Bc i havent submitted anything

crude creek
#

yeah if you are domestic, cornell will ask for the forms

low pasture
#

i mean it didnt even appear on my idoc

#

some indians and sri lankans got asked for finaid docs

crude creek
#

idt anyone will know the answer to you question. your best bet is to email the office and wait out the 5 days

#

I respect that

especially now that we're actually getting rain. if i don't get in i won't have to deal with real winter 😁

hollow cedar
#

does being a girl and applying CoE give an advantage?

sonic smelt
#

i think so

#

defo higher acceptance rate than male coe

hollow cedar
#

does coe not accept by major?

low pasture
#

I believe so

#

because engineering has a core program

#

then you choose a major

hollow cedar
#

wait so if u apply cs its not any different than other engineering majors?

low pasture
#

I've no idea

brazen vine

crude creek
crude creek

so it gives a lot of advantage

its the same for georgia tech

which is cool

yeah overall is fairly close

Are there any internationals who applied for finaid but didn't receive an email asking about tax documents?

#

Omg, what major?

next gulch
#

biometry and statistics

#

i don't know anyone who's applying under that major yet 😭 it seems like it's pretty small though

versed notch
#

It sounds cool!! I want to apply for biological sciences with a focus in ecology and evolutionary biology, but I'm afraid it might be too competitive of a major because biological sciences is really broad and I don't know if admissions consider the focus you want to go into as well

next gulch
#

i know in CALS you go in declared (even though it's not difficult to switch within the college), so i would assume it does affect how they view your application

What's bme? 😅 Biomedical engineering?

but i don't think BME is in CALS?

#

sometimes they will request additional docs

#

which is a pretty good sign this late in the process

#

i think it mostly applies to intl

low pasture
#

they didn't request anything from me (intl)

#

in website they say only css is needed unless specifically asked for

#

that means if they are gonna accept they ask for docs

#

and I will be rejected salute

forces???

#

i mean we're required to have at least 5 classes but

#

i've never heard of required APs

crude creek
#

yes meaning you are unable to graduate. if you have a certain circumstance it is possible to not take them but I dont have any circumstances

next gulch
#

is this a public school 😭

#

or a private

crude creek
#

yes its public

next gulch
#

that's so weird lol

crude creek
#

idk why its required either

muted hearth
#

i mean i guess in some schools honors are foregone in favor of aps

ornate moth
#

i mean

#

its good tho

muted hearth
#

so its just the norm to load it up

#

yea

ornate moth
#

but jus a lil bit overkill

next gulch
#

"lil"

crude creek
ornate moth
#

i mean i would force APs to be completely honest, it makes u a more competitive applicant

next gulch
#

our school doesn't allow APs freshman year and you can take one sophomore year (assuming you aren't like 3 years ahead in math)

ornate moth
#

or like one of the AP/IB programs at least

muted hearth
#

our school doesnt allow aps until junior which is kinda sad

#

tho i did take exams before then

#

do y'all know ~ how many kids from your schools are EDing cornell

crude creek
#

~40 most likely

im at like 6ish

#

200 ish ppl

#

last year 6 ppl got in ED out of 6

#

inshallah me too

crude creek

#

the good thing is i don't talk to many people so only ~2 people at school know where i'm EDing 💀

#

School portfolio???

#

You lost me sorry

ornate moth
#

does it matter for ppl to know where u ED

next gulch
#

no i just don't want people coming up and asking if i've gotten in

crude creek
next gulch
#

my school is pretty sweaty and i feel like it can get competitive

crude creek
#

so type your school in gooogle + profile and you should see some basic stats of your school

versed notch
#

Ok, let me go check, I did try and check my school a few weeks ago, but idk if they release who goes where

ornate moth
#

how are these rates for cornell

Screenshot_2022-12-11_at_8.13.28_AM.png
#

imo, good

next gulch
#

maybe search up "[high school name] matriculation" and check to see if your school paper made an article about it

crude creek
#

theres also naviance

#

but its only good if its not self reported

#

and you can always email your counselors for stats

crude creek
versed notch
#

My school doesn't do naviance

next gulch
#

my school does matriculation but they don't list numbers applied/accepted, just what schools people went to :/

crude creek
#

my school just doesnt give any of that data, so the students just compile data themselves

#

but not everyone answers so its incomplete usually

versed notch
#

I only know from my sister's year one person got into Columbia, another to Harvard through recuited athlete, and my sister to UPenn, everyone else at my school seems like they were instate

vital shore
#

my school gives a lot of data, but i kinda don’t want to focus too much on it

#

still have that “you never know!” mindset lol

#

im very average in comparison to my classmates but it’s okayyy

#

haha this

crude creek
#

I always believe "anything can happen" bcs there are some things I never thought would happen in my life, but here I am in life seeing it all occur

next gulch
#

if i think about it too much i'll freak out

versed notch
#

I just like to have data, so I'll probably have to dig through my school's career counseling twitter because I think they post every prestigious acceptance, but I could be wrong 😭

crude creek
vital shore
#

LMAO my college office emailed us this week basically saying they’re glad it’s almost over

versed notch
#

My school has 700+ per class, we have one college and career counselor and like 6 regular counselors. If we want to talk to them we have to schedule appointments ourselves, and I don't think she'll tell me any of the data because it's probably "for privacy" or something

vital shore
#

we have two weeks to get in any questions before they close for winter break

vital shore
#

ur school is so big

crude creek
versed notch
#

My school's above its limit by like 50% and they won't hire more teachers 🤷‍♀️

crude creek
versed notch
#

I heard the freshman class was like 900~ so at least I'm not in that mess

versed notch
# crude creek have you tried this before or are you assuming?

Assuming, the school's really bad at communicating, and since I'm not a senior I feel bad scheduling when a senior might need it more right now, I'm planning to get all my questions ready and schedule an appointment after application season's pretty much over

crude creek
#

yeah that would be a good idea. you never know what will happen in a conversation and you dont know if the counselor will slip some helpful info by "accident"

muted hearth
#

bro going to the UC high school edition

versed notch
#

I guess it doesn't hurt to ask, I know for most people looking at stats stresses them out but I think it makes me overly confident because I think I can be part of the outliers 😅

#

I don't live in California 😅

vital shore
#

my hs is also around the 900~ range per grade but they seem more organized ab it

#

for us juniors are guaranteed meetings w their designated counselors sometime in the spring semester

#

and we fill out the naviance forms so they can write recs for us

#

maybe there’s something like that for ygs as well?

crude creek
versed notch
#

Idk, they focus so much on high school graduation because our graduating rate ends up being like 96% or something that they kind of neglect pushing more college stuff, but we also have a CTE school built into our district so a lot of kids end up going the technical school route
