Sorry to butt in, but what's wrong with having a lot of trees? š
15 min walks r possible but abnormal
Typical like 5-10 possibly outdors
Long walk from north campus (some dorms) to academics
Free bussing for firstyears
Iām going to ask them to match
letās hope they match it by Monday
š
Both beautiful in their own right tbh
Wha
U just said the same thing as me
And ik plenty abt cornell it was my top choice for a while
How u considering cornell over penn smh
cities skylines
@plain coral queen how r u
hellooo
im good
im retail therapying
Thank you! I want to get into penn
Bruh
How are u considering cornell over penn smh
Penn is the slightly less depressed cornell
i now need to start simping for cornell sorry penn
He said heās considering cornell
But hes going to harvard anyway
Hes just tryna have fun
if you take me off the waitlist ill love you equally penn
Smh
Not after the Cornell simping
Im reporting this to admissions
well they actually admitted me tho
penn didnāt
Penn wanted 2x what harvard wanted
I appealed and they still wanted about 10k more
Bruh
Greedy mfs š
They just didnt want a noob like u to attend
Me pro
š§¢āļø
What did you get
Half of this was free tho Dw
And a hotelie sweatshirt
All the cornell students were wearing cornell merch so idrc
Hotelie moment
A&S and coe get literally
Nothing
business majors living on easy mode fr
i just realized i submitted my waitlist reply form like two hours past the 4/10 deadline,,, am i screwed?
There was a very low chance you were going to get off the WL, so I wouldnāt say youāre necessarily screwed
What was free?
Wait they sent you an acceptance package off the waitlist?
Imagine being admitted to nolan
Would you say all T20 waitlists are soft rejections
Yes
especially for like ivies
There are exceptions, but most of the top schools just tend to have high yield rates so they donāt need to take many people off the wl
Woah
I feel like Iām annoying people by bringing it up but Iām truly shocked how an indian male beat demographics odds
Is that a compliment or a diss lmao
The packet, shirt, water bottle, pins, pen, and sticker was free. Rest was just my parents being cute
Admitted package takes a few weeks but is apparently pretty mid
ye my friend just got a t shirt
just got lucky, be humble, youāre easily replaceable by any other qualified person on the wl
How was it free
Go to admitted students day and they give you stuff lol
Kindest luck comment:
At least the free stuff I got was from the business panel! Ik some kids got others depending on which they went to
I didnt get anything from penn bruh
Basically a tote bag and stickers
They scammed me
Lollll not the stickers
Shocked they did that
Uflop
i havenāt had any admitted students days š„ŗ
Compliment cause nobody gets in
I agree I just feel like I donāt deserve it
If you donāt then why donāt you send it over to me? Nah bro relish it, Iām sure you worked hard.
There is a decent chance Iāll drop the spot because finances are important for me. If I do, I hope it goes to you man
Are you a chem major?
No math haha
I probably wouldnāt be able to afford it either
Are you southwest by any chance? (TX, OK, KS, MO, AR)
No, just the south (NC).
I definitely donāt match you at all šš
ohh ok
Step one, drop the impostor syndromeš
Aww thank you!
They definitely do tho
Isnāt it like the highest acceptance rate
š
how many ppl did they admit off of cas this year and how much off waitlist?
Iām talking abt Nolan
No idea for cas
Oh yeah idek for nolan
I didnāt even know it was the name of the hotel school until yesterday
Wait did you get off the waitlist for Nolan or rd?
Waitlist
And they gave merch for you?
I went to admitted students day so yes
You can always buy stuff too
Everyone gets the free shirt tho
ohhh ok makes sense
So you donāt have to commit for the free merch
no
just get accepted
the purpose of merch is not only to rep the school but as incentive to come
no way
they gave a lot of stuff in the lines
apparently the 1st year orientation at cornell is cooler
like faculty and classes and merch and stuff
the prefrosh days are less
hmm
not when itās ugly

@jovial field
<3
You committed to caltech or Cornell?
Youāre doing cs?
What laptop do you have
m1
What did
air
Size
fr
not when its a singular sticker saying I AM A CORNELL ENGINEER.
Oh
wait so you agree

yey
"just got lucky, be humble, you're easily replaceable by any other of the ivies i got into"
- luck to the school he ends up choosing, probably
/lh
The campus will be more Luck-y with you ba dum tss
itās not bad
At least the T shirt
@thick abyss how fast do they ship the Cornell merch
Will I be able to wear it to school š
This guy
Oh, it is BAD
Wait send a pic
Iām asking the real questions
you all get shipped merch?
i applied to CALS
Dude wait until you get official news š
you donāt even know that youāre definitely in yet man
I know idk why Iām doing this š
I am just getting hyped for it lol
Fr
I'm in the same position and I'm still worried that I won't actually get it. I'm just waiting and hoping for tomorrow.
praying for u guys š š
The tshirt any admitted student can get with the link
Guys if you are debating on whether to commit to Cornell do it šlove yall
Iām debating haha
pls send letter today @cedar crescent
any more continued interest emails from CAS?
Sorry Cornell
Upenn commit ā¼ļø
Yeah, I need to give the noobs a chance to build up at Penn
otherwise itās too easy for me
Im literally the next elon musk buddy
Did harvard give aid or nah
have you already declined cornell?
Yes
what major / school?
Math, college of arts & sciences
Math major pre med??
I said Iād maybe switch to premed
oh š³
I applied engineering or math at most places
ew why engineering
thank you ā¤ļø
Np
Do applied math
Im going to be 100000x richer than u noob
š§¢
hello, when do we hear back from the waitlist? Or is it just from now to july or something
Now to july
Maybe even august
Rolling
Started on the 21st and can technically go to august
Ok, happy birthday fr this time @plain coral

TY LMAO
Thank you, I want penn
I dont get how penn is better premed than cornell
penn just better š¤·āāļø
Cornell STEM > Penn
Stanford > Berkeley > Cornell STEM
wharton >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> harvard > any other school
least obvious berkeley admit
lol @vernal raven where you off to/
yes wharton is good business school.. but STEM, no way
cool congrats
upenn seas is pretty cool imo
m&t is like one of the most prestigious stem degrees from what ive seen
it's pretty cool sure but there's ton of better options than upenn seas - even cmu gtech and caltech are better STEM and engineering schools
among the ivies tho i got penn seas at 2
maybe columbia at 2 actually idk
lol ivies is just a sports conference..
if you wanna study business or finance, wharton has no comparison, it's number 1!
but if you wanna study engineering or computer science, there're ton of schools better than penn seas - mit, stanford, cmu, gtech, berkeley, caltech, michigan, cornell, list could go on
yea
i usually say ivies are overrated
but ppl are like "ur only saying that bc u got in to one"
nah they have prestige (from old times) but it's overrated for sure.. tech companies hardly go to any ivies other than cornell maybe
they definitely still have recruiting, but i wouldnt say its as much as a school like gtech or cmu
ppl typically go ivy stem just for the better student life from my understanding
exactly
LETS GOOOO
if thereās nothing for cals imma be so sad
Has anyone who applied to CALS get off the waitlist yet?
^^^ or heard anything
congrats!!
Thank you!
So the email did actually mean you got accepted! Congrats all
It turns out yeah
CONGRATS!
Thank you!
is there an admitted students instagram
yeah
just look up cornell2027 on ig
Welcome back to Instagram. Sign in to check out what your friends, family & interests have been capturing & sharing around the world.
oh wait yeah ive seen this
why are people so good looking in every admitted students group
do they just avoid posting the ugly ppl or something
Selection bias perhaps
only the people who are good at taking pics and/or think they look good post on the pages
Facts
You gotta remember that the people posting candid pictures on these groups are probably frequenters of Instagram and thereās a particular demographic there for sure.
i should follow u on insta
š
i mean come on you Cornell nerds canāt all be so aesthetic
Girl do u even follow me
I think Iām the only Riley on that page at least š
omg
dm me urs
ill follow
Slay
@cedar crescent you didnt get FA yet right?
hi
if iām getting FA requests on waitlist does that mean anything
or is it a cope

i thought thereās no way they would accept me off waitlist given that i accepted waitlist 20 days late
and iām not submitting a loci
but if by some chance they do pull me off waitlist
hopefully FA comes thru and i can send the offer to columbia
Ah I see
im just trying to force them into appeal money
yeah, thatās good
To answer your question though, I think it could be a good sign?
A lot of the people that got off the waitlist today and in the coming days were on the priority waitlist
if the class isnāt full from the priority waitlist then theyāll prob move onto the regular waitlist
idt it hurts to send the fin aid info if you have it cause you never know
yeah idt iād be on priority if i accepted yesterday
are you thinking to go cornell vs berkeley eecs?
congratulations
probably berkeley
tyty
congratssss
what college did u get in for?
engineering
i mean u waited like a whole month to accept so it rlly doesnt seem like u prefer cornell š
the point isnāt really to get off the waitlist i just thought it would be nice to compare FA offers if by some chance i do, i donāt want to get off waitlist and decline i was just curious about aid
most wls send aid offers even if they dont want to take u
like cmu and case sent it to like evryone
so ull likely 100% get an aid offer 
but cornells like
ass with their timing LMFAOO
lots of RD admits got their aid like in the days before may 1
still havenāt gotten mine
iām privileged enough that aid isnāt really a factor + thereās a cornell financial aid calculator thatās super accurate
also it was between this and harvey mudd and berkeley so i wanted to stay close to home
I feel like cornell does that on purpose
likely
so they donāt have a chance to match other offers
Cause they sent me my aid offer 2 days before commit day
so their offices are closed on the weekends and then thereās only 1 day to negotiate anything which isnāt enough time
Computer science
is there gonna be any more wailist movement for cornell cas or is this basically it
anyone heard anything from cals
someone on cc apparently called the cas office and they said theyāve made about 100 offers for cas alone š„² i think thereāll be minor movement in the coming weeks based on if wl admits decline cornell or cornell admits get off other waitlists - but atp i think the large waves are over :(
source
Any more on CoE?
college confidential lol
this is just for cas not for cals btw
do they just send the grades?
yes
but itās on a weird scale ā some of classes are given written evaluations with grades on the failure ā exceptional scale, instead of the traditional F-A scale
my apologies good sire
My school didnt either
No idea if cornell recalculates but they prolly do to some extent
And compare ur transcript to others from ur school
Verify
Whats wrong with a TO
nothing I would just prefer first year admissions
TO saves u money 
God I hope I get off the waitlist
did anyone get off the coe waitlist for cs yet
hey does anyone know anything about research opportunities at cornell?
plentiful and fascinating
can earn a letter grade, class credit, or money
or nothing
do we know if the CALS waitlist has moved yet
only seeing CAS and COE stuff and losing hope
has there been much CoE movement?
my brother in christ cals might as well be dead
this shit got me hella depressed
yeahā¦. itās also by major and ofc i applied to like the smallest one
i shoulda done coe instead lmao
i should have done CAS
yea a bunch got off on cc i believe
i would assume coe has less spots but idk
i saw some cals movement on cc as well iirc
just got off CALS waitlist
Congratulations! What region ?
Congrats!!
NYC
im nyc plsss cas

Thanks for confirming. Congrats.
i couldnāt believe it bc two ppl from my school were already going to CALS for my major, a very small program
can i ask what major?
Global Development
yep out of nowhere and legit 15 min after i was having a cheer up talk w my friends bc i thought none of my waitlists would come through
funny how the world works
lmaoo
best of luck all waitlisted people !!!!!
nothingš„²
Any Dyson/Nolan WL movement?
I got off Nolan
There was a wave on the 21st and then a few days later
Nothing since then?
Hmm⦠thanks
Dyson
Thanks!
i saw scholargrade say somewhere that cornell doesn't take ppl of the wl if they don't send a loci
iām pretty sure theyāre done taking off waitlist
but idk
i got put on wl in a niche major w/ hooks
what college?
CAS
also how dyk
ah im coe
rippp
yeah itās ok
i was just going to use cornell to negotiate columbia
but i applied to scholarships so i should be fine
im praying i get off the columbia waitlist tbh š
i got waitlisted at 10 places lol
thatās crazy
you must be so cracked š
i got rejected everywhere except for one place i was guaranteed admission and columbia
ayyyyy
it would be more cracked if i got into them lmfaooo
columbia fr a massive W
we stan
lol how many did you get king
thanks yeah
it was nice to get in to one of my reaches
it's funny
in august i arbitrarily ranked colleges safety, target, reach, and super reach
i had 1 acceptance until ivy day and i was going to commit that night š
got into all my targets and safeties
and except for one reach that i got rejected from
i got waitlists from all my reaches
rejected from all my super reaches
damn
thanks <3
idk last yr they were accepting till the 13th
im prob delusional
sent in a loci and additional lor on like 25th april and scared i was too late lol
well i am also international + full ride so it was prob bound to happen š i hope they at least give me the transfer option cause i got 0 US acceptances plus a columbia and princeton waitlist
cornell is the only out of my 3 schools i could find evidence of intls getting off the WL but still none of the ones i found had applied for aid anyways so
Has anyone received any communication from Nolan/Dyson? In the WL letter it said they would communicate after May 2? I thought they would send an interest form or something similar to CALS š¤·š»āāļø
Most likely, tomorrow if anything
Any cs news?
Will the waitlist for cas move or not?
someone on college confidential called cas to ask https://talk.collegeconfidential.com/t/cornell-waitlist-2027/3635571/818
proof cornell is a fake ivy
Yale over harvard bruh
@solemn sleet defend ur school
only people who didnāt get into Harvard say that
Makes sense, he goes there
When I think about it, all Iāve been doing is hating on Cornell
everyone i know who got both yale and harvard picked yale tbf
@night valley dƩfend
everyone i know picked harvard over yale š¦
id do yale over harvard
yale clears harvard sorry
Why do people even create general college rankings? They have basically no meaning when they are that general and not specific to a major or field. At a minimum, it should be split up into STEM and humanities.
Me if i lied:
cornell still is at the bottom sorry
typical emre L
i have 0 Ls
cornell trash school ill steal their merch, wear it for a week and then hate on them for the rest of my life
unless they decide to grow brains and fix my unreasonable aid
you canāt just say something and not back it up
"Yale is literally discount harvard"
fine ill drop my reasons (also this is partially satire bc it literally is splitting hairs but i still do prefer yale LOL and some of my reasons are def gonna be exaggerated):
-way better campus architecture imo
-yale food blows harvard food out the water no question
-generally attracts more art/hum types than harvard that attracts more business fanboys, overall more collaborative and fun culture
-harvard kids literally pick harvard for the name and make it their personality bye
- ok, this is fair but who goes to these places for campus
- Iāve never had yale food but harvard food was actually realllllyyyy good imo
- how is this a con? itās a pro cause humanities stink
- true but itās harvard so it doesnāt matter
have u seen the what i eat in a day at yale girl on tiktok
i swear they eat better than ppl at 5 star hotels LMAOO
wait r u a harvard commit
Yeah
that is insane and impressive wow i cant shit talk harvard cause i didnt get in LMAOAOA
Nah itās fine lol
maybe if we were debating harvard and mit but like harvard vs yale is Harvard easily š„±
no
lmao debating yale vs harvard in the cornell thread
cornell asking me for more fin aid stuff while iām on the waitlistā¦
stop playing with my emotions pls
@cornell heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy š„°
its me again
youre so cool and i want to throw my life savings at you ā¤ļø just give me the A
Anything from WL recently??
youre so real for that
i really hope cas sends out a wave of interest emails today
holding out for a hero (cals)
someone got off for cas psych major yesterday bye
they got continued interest email on 18th
must be the day they sent those out for this next round then
im losing hope now atp theyll probably sending transfer options out soon i hope i can get it š
damn š
thatās wild though i havenāt seen anyone else get it,,, mustāve been a super small round
Itās not over
May 22, 2023
Earlier this spring, you asked us to keep your name on our wait list in case we were able to make any more offers of admission for the 2023 fall semester. We now have a clear picture of the number of students who will be enrolling in the fall and, unfortunately, we will not have a place in the class to offer you.
We appreciate your interest in Cornell and your patience while you were on the wait list. You are a student who has much to contribute to a college community. We are confident that you have other fine opportunities for undergraduate education and know you will thrive wherever you enroll.
If, after a successful year or two elsewhere, you continue to believe that Cornell may be the right school for you, we hope you will consider applying to transfer here. Cornell enrolls between 600-700 transfer students each year, and you will find information for transfer applicants on our website: admissions.cornell.edu.
In the meantime, my very best wishes for every success as you continue your education.
Sincerely,
deniedš„¹

Iām sorry bae š
im sorry š
i got that too
rejected :(
i had significant updates and even a project i was working on w a cornell prof
intl full ride cs major was too much to take off a waitlist i guess šš
wheres my waitlist update bruh
Thatās good!
They said theyāre holding onto a few kids
So if thereās space, youāre in
Nvm
lmao š
time to hope for TOs,,, unless theyāve already given those out as well š
Nah itās over
For coe
cas also released people today from wl
nah im cas too and got the update
maybe ur staying on
mine was dyson
Iām CAS and I got an update
same
but honestly I wouldn't even have gone if I got in
CornL
fr
Yāall didnāt get in
who wants to go to farmer school anyways
L
Thanks dick
I didnāt either bro
L
Nah itās a W
has anyone from cals received the email?
samee
Got into CAS off WL but I donāt think I should go
today?
Yeah they sent an email
Idk I think Cornell would be a downgrade
aint nothing topping that besides like mit/stanford
Yeah but āname valueā
Today I felt sad cuz everyone was wearing college shirts and no one even knew where CMU is lol
oh cmon dont be like that
cornell is literally cornL
its a negative
literally
fake ivy
Idk how much name value actually matters tho
Cuz itās the same reason I chose CMU over other schools like Duke Dartmouth and UCLA
Facts
i mean i chose stern over JHU Cal and WashU for like the same reasons
Business?
ye
Wait where you OOS for Berkeley
yeah
Ah makes sense
NYU stern is goated congrats dude
Wharton is oversaturated with finance bros imo
and stern isnt? ššš
Columbia ā¤ļø
full
boutta see if I can finess scholarships next year
thatās like 300k plus right š
...t-t
I got full ride CMU cuz of some outside scholarships
But if I went to another school Iād have to deal with scholarship displacement
what does that even mean
They reduce your finaid if you get outside scholarships
that's fucked
Congrats!! Iām biased but come here
Nvm Cmu full ride is impossible to beat lmao
lmao
Cornell would be 100k+ more š
Yeah not worth it tbh
My rly good friend is going to Cmu for physics
Incredible school
Employers know it and thatās all that matters
cmu name value is way better for cs
look at cmu placements
cmu full ride for cs is unbeatable other than like mit/stanny full ride
fr thatās me im also minoring in business
Major in dance bro cmu is the best
CS + dance combo kinda fire
Yessir š
trust bro cmu is pretty much the best name you can have for cs lmao
for anyone on the cals wl i emailed them and they said we might have to wait till june
yoo i didnt think they'd accept cs majors off of cas
congrats!!
i was cs too but rip lol

Hi, I come bearing (unofficial) good news for those on the Cornell Waitlist. Since 2009 number of students offered admission has ranged from 0 to 260, with numbers as low as 24 just 2 years ago. So with my son on the waitlist, the question was how many will be offered admission off the waitlist in any year, and 2023 in particular. Cornell curre...
They went on a whole ranting shesh
lmao the cc mod yelling at them š
lmfaooooo the comments got flagged
did anyone get off dyson waitlist
i heard a lot of people got rejected on the waitlist but im still on the waitlist
I was wondering the same thing for CALS
is there a chance of getting a TO?
Wondering the same for Nolan, I assumed they were done since early May but I havenāt gotten the rejection letter yet
From what I recall dyson typically extends an encourage to transfer but not a guarantee
i emailed them
they are not done with their waitlist
Def some TOās at least I bet
Gl man!!
looks like many people got rejected
so maybe weāll hear good news soon? š
Hopefully, even a transfer option would be amazing
See
They accept the ppl who dont want corn
Yall who would 100% enjoy transfer option r amazing
if I reject, does the spot go to other people on WL or does it just disappear
did dyson get wl rejections?
i wasnt sure if it was only for the other schools
im on dyson wl no rejection email
^^
some dyson kids got rejected
ig ill still remain hopeful š
i called and was informed that I should hear something by june 1st
š¤·āāļø
do u think the cas kids who didnt get rejected are the only ones who might get a transfer option
i got the portal update of WL being closed but some cas kids didnt
i really wanted the transfer option damn š do u think an email expressing my continued interest in it would be worth it atp tho i did highlight it in my loci
some cas kids didn't get rejected?
but yeah ngl if that's the case i'm guessing the TOs are going to them š
I didnt
ooo dang congrats
i've heard ppl that didn't get the TOs but were on the cornell wl did have luck transferring in thru the normal process,,, but it does still mean u have to go thru the whole app again
dam looks like cornell has a crush on u š
I had a crush on them for a fat minute lol
But idk anymore
yeah no way im getting in the regular way i was an intl student who needed a full ride i doubt thats happening in transfers if i couldnt do it for first year admission lol
tho ive talked to 2 intls who needed significant aid and still got the TO from cornell and it worked out aid-wise which is why when i got waitlisted lowkey it was all i wanted š
HOLY DUCK
WHATās UP
I GOT OFF CALS WL
HOLY FUCK CONGRATS!!!!
COME HERE BRO
CALS IS AMAZING THATās INSANE
CONGRATSS
Gjgj
my friend did a few weeks back but she turned it down
Whereās she going?
did she get off the waitlist?
š
Is anyone here a food science major at cornell?
this true?
i never got an email telling me that im rejected from the waitlist
Which major
dyson
Not applicable sadly (or yay?)
The rejections were only cas and engineering (I believe based on cc)
thereās been like no Dyson activity
Most likely theyāre waiting to do TOās at the least
Def good luck! Are you at Ross rn?
Naw i didnt apply to ross i applied for CS
but i might transfer in
i was considering my options for both didnt really know which one i wanted to go for at umich
thx
kinda forgot i was on cornell waitlist
just remembered so i checked this server to see how the activity is going
Same lmao
I was Dyson and got rejected š
I just declined my spot so hope you get it?
me too
L corn
rejected from the waitlist?
Yeah
hoiw longago
Idk but there was this mass rejection last week probably
Chose tulsa? Or did u get off a wl
oh okay
and what if u didnt get rejected
how long does it take to get finaid package after receiving acceptance letter?
So if i wasnāt denied off of the waitlist should I send in a second LOCI or just leave it
Or maybe just send final
Transcript
when itās available
iām also on dyson WL
i heard many people got rejected for dyson WL though
anything would help your case as long as itās not bad
yes my friend got rejected too i think they cleared out over half the people on dyson wl
kk i dont have much to add though
do we know much abt engineering waitlist?
are we still thinking no rejection yet is a good sign or am i just getting my hopes up lmao
Tulsa
good choice!
I think itās a good sign but I would say donāt get ur hopes up just because nothing is guaranteed
i think someone on college confidential called engineering and they said theyāre keeping a few ppl over the summer just in case things change, but looks like their class is full rn :(
