i only applied cuz i love ilr

[grave herald]

[supple pendant]

i liked mine i remember

otherwise i wouldn’t have applied 😭

[haughty crown]

Yeah with my school and u met her

[supple pendant]

ohh for us we didn’t get to meet her

[grave herald]

ilr hates when you mention proffessors and stuff so i didnt even mention any

[pseudo tartan]

tbh idk much about ilr. what do you love about it?

[haughty crown]

We had lunch at the hotel and met with people

[supple pendant]

i just did research on professors online and her mission matches up with the theme of my essay

[haughty crown]

Wait why didn’t you like your tour?

[supple pendant]

oh that’s so cool

[candid atlas]

🙄

[grave herald]

ilr is so interdisciplinery and thats why i love it so much also i really am interested in working class politics so thats a big part of it

[haughty crown]

I talked with an admissions officer and she told me to talk about my visit and experience

[grave herald]

why are you here

[candid atlas]

why are you here?

[supple pendant]

that makes sense

[grave herald]

youre right

you are the disvord mod

[candid atlas]

[grave herald]

WHY DID YOU DO THAT

DID YOU SUBMIT IT

[supple pendant]

i didnt really talk about my visit that much tbh lol

oh well

[haughty crown]

@supple pendant do you have a lot of hotel experience?

[pseudo tartan]

whats wrong with mentioning a professor?

[candid atlas]

i was talking about how she did research in something im also researching

[haughty crown]

That you talked about in your app?

[grave herald]

oh they really hate that from what i can tell

[supple pendant]

i wouldn’t say “a lot” bc i didn’t know i wanted to go into hospitality until pretty recently

[candid atlas]

well it was only one sentence in the middle of my why ilr is a great fit part

[pseudo tartan]

why? and why just ilr?

[supple pendant]

but i have had multiple jobs which i talked about

[haughty crown]

[haughty crown]

SICK

[grave herald]

this really long interview

[haughty crown]

working experience is the best

[grave herald]

they say they hate stuff from the website

like even proffessors they dont like being mentioned

[candid atlas]

ok then im good

[grave herald]

its an ilr only thing

[supple pendant]

i also talked about how like

[haughty crown]

They do hate the website

[grave herald]

they mention proffessors in specific too

[pseudo tartan]

okay so if i did that for engineering im good?

[grave herald]

yea

[haughty crown]

Dont just write about how amazing Cornell is, they know that.

That’s one thing she told me.

[supple pendant]

there was this school wide cultural food festival that had been going on for years

[haughty crown]

Where are you from?

[candid atlas]

wtv i doubt one sentence is gonna kill me esp if my reason isnt even to namedrop

[supple pendant]

but then it got cancelled bc the club that was running it got disbanded

illinois!

[haughty crown]

Sick

[supple pendant]

wbu

[haughty crown]

DC

[supple pendant]

oh nice

[haughty crown]

can I follow you on instagram?

[supple pendant]

sure!

[haughty crown]

Yasss

[grave herald]

idk ilr said smth like they dislike when students mentions profs cuz they dont know if they still teach that class, are researching the samw things, or still at the cornell

[candid atlas]

makes sense

[grave herald]

i didnt mention any thing such as classes or profs or that for ilr

i just mentioned vague concepts im interested in

[runic spade]

oh shoot gotta change up my essay lmfao

[grave herald]

https://open.spotify.com/episode/1clTAUYDC0kyePHPZaNYs8?si=bHRQbRk3S--wuEce13gFxg

listen to this podcast

[runic spade]

aight

thx

[grave herald]

he is the head of ilr admissions

its long but so worth it

[runic spade]

ah

i'm applying to dyson so similar ig

[empty hedge]

shiit

I didnt know that shit before

[elfin thunder]

does it apply to dyson or nah

[grave herald]

its an ilr thing

ik people that got into dyson got it with mentioning profs and shit

its only ilr that has this as an issue

[runic spade]

oh

my essay is still prolly gonna change

[grave herald]

its also part of the wording of the ilr essay question that hints at that

[pseudo tartan]

seems like you know what youre talking about but to me that seems less specific to cornell, like that could apply to any college essay

[grave herald]

oh i made the concepts very connected to ilr

not like vague concepts as in any concept

it was unions, intersectionality, and classism i think

its very specific to ilr

but not specific enough as a class or prof

[ionic belfry]

@weak valve do you have any Dyson friends

I’m taking a Dyson class next semester and I’m scared lmao

It’s all the way at the food sci building

[hybrid canopy]

holy shit congrats

you killed it

[hybrid canopy]

oh willy

love that guy

[pseudo tartan]

current cornellians, how much meaning do you all think a caaan meeting request has? have you known anyone who has gotten one and not gotten in?

(or anyone who knows)

[grave herald]

clearly not a cornellian but from what i can tell its not that important becauss its non evaluative

i think archeticture is evaluative

[pseudo tartan]

ik the meeting itself does not carry much if any weight, but i mean does the fact i got a request mean something about my application?

[grave herald]

but unless your applying to there i dont think it matters that much

[grave herald]

not sure about that

it depends on the ammount of alums willing to do it i think

so nicher majors will have less

[pseudo tartan]

ok. my thinking is why would they waste an alums time telling an applicant how amazing cornell is if that applicant had no shot?

[onyx blade]

AAP does not have evaluative interviews this year

[grave herald]

probably but im genuinely not sure tbh

[grave herald]

oh my friend that got in a while ago said they had it but ig im wrong

[onyx blade]

What year did your friend get in

[grave herald]

theyre a family friend they graduate this year

[onyx blade]

Ohh I see that’s a long time ago. They got rid of interviews this year because of lack of ppl available in the department

[grave herald]

yea thats prob why

[ionic belfry]

It’s based on location

They’re chill

Don’t impact anything

It’s just to get the alumni network involved

[pseudo tartan]

okay. have you known anyone who has gotten one and then been rejected?

[ionic belfry]

I’ve never asked lmao

[thorny violet]

I'm sure there are people, like it's unlikely that every single person who's ever gotten a CAAAN interview was accepted, especially if it's just based on availability of alumni and area

[maiden beacon]

This is just speculation, but I feel like they wouldnt bother giving the CAAAN meeting to somebody they weren’t at least considering

[ionic hearth]

Yea

our interview was us just trashing like berkeley football 😭

[ionic hearth]

!!

[thorny violet]

I wish I got an interview really bad because I don't even live in a rural area or anything

[maiden beacon]

can any cornell students answer? and if people do get interviews and get rejected, did admitted students in cornell proportionally tend to have MORE interviews compared to the general applicant pool

[ionic hearth]

😔

yea i feel like interviews can be weird cause i know people who are more competitive than me who didn't get interviews

fwiw every single interview i've gotten (for every school) has lived within ~10m of my apartment by car/train?

[maiden beacon]

idk if its indicator of acceptance. But for mine, he just answered basic questions and talked about his personal experience

[heavy marlin]

its prob just whoever's in your area tho

[ionic hearth]

Yea it was pretty helpful for learning about cornell

[ionic belfry]

They rly aren’t a testament to if you’re a good applicant

At any school

For some majors with portfolios like architecture it matters tho

[maiden beacon]

Do you think they would give one to a completely uncompetitive applicant though?

like somebody with a 2.0 gpa

[ionic belfry]

I’m not sure, but probably some very small initial screening

[maiden beacon]

thats what i was thinking

[ionic belfry]

But people can and do get in without an interview

[maiden beacon]

its probably minimal though

[maiden beacon]

not that an interview is necessary for acceptance or anything but

did you personally get admitted without an interview

[ionic belfry]

I personally had an interview

Sweet lady but was p mid

[maiden beacon]

mine was also pretty mid

like 15 mins

guy was super nice but I got the feeling that there wasn’t much to discuss

he did give me some useful numbers about admitted cornell students in my geographic region though

[ionic belfry]

Yeah for sure

Oo cool!

[maiden beacon]

I live in a REALLY bad state for education so the numbers were actually relevant for me

I believe he said around 25-30 get in from my state each year

considering im doing ED to a super niche school (Brooks), i might be the only applicant from my state in that school’s system atm

pure speculation though

[ionic belfry]

Nevada?

[maiden beacon]

Okay psychic

Yes

LMAO

[ionic belfry]

LMAO

[maiden beacon]

Las Vegas specifically

[ionic belfry]

I’m sitting next to my best friend from Vegas rn

She’s studying for her final at 2

[maiden beacon]

oh thats sick

not to doxx but did she go to Clark HS?

not where I go but its the probably most competitive school for colleges in vegas

[ionic belfry]

Nah northwest

There’s a kid from Clark here tho

Cs kid

[maiden beacon]

thats sick I just did a debate tournament at northwest a bit ago

[maiden beacon]

impressive

Its good to know that there are some Nevada kids repping at cornell

thanks for all the info btw

and congrats on your high final exam grade

[thorny violet]

I live in the suburbs so idk... I literally know someone who's mom went to Cornell

I did not get an IDOC request. It’s not a problem right?

[merry wasp]

I think I have four LMAO

[merry wasp]

thank you!!! are you in cornell? whats ur college?

[merry wasp]

Don't worry about it

those things mean nothing

[pallid lichen]

Really ?

You know people who got in without it

[merry wasp]

I would say don't fret about it

The problem could be with your financial aid, not that there's something wrong with admissions

there's no way of knowing and its pointless

[heavy marlin]

right believe you’ll get in

apply to 20+ colleges if you dont

[merry wasp]

but wait to apply after you get your ED

cause you don't wanna be wasting all that money

[twilit current]

good luck!!

[twilit current]

wait what are you majoring in

[near harbor]

To the current Cornell students, how’s the healthcare and mental health services there?

[weak valve]

bme but transferring to cog sci in cas

hoping to transfer*

[twilit current]

rooting for you

[weak valve]

good imo

honestly my therapist was good but hedidn tseem super profesional

and also i was paying for it when i didnt need it

so i stopped

he was friendly and appeased me but he largely just

trusted my self diagnoses

which was weird

[near harbor]

got it ty

[twilit current]

ive only accessed the physical healthcare and it fixed the issue i had. my friend had a tragic loss of a sibling and he was bumped to the front of the line for mental healthcare but he was only given 30 minute sessions every week and he felt they were trying to push him out

its hit or miss

[weak valve]

yeah it was 30-60 min meetings per week

[near harbor]

ah

[weak valve]

but usually

he struggled to find a spot for me

since i do 20 credits

and i didnt want to swap therapists

so it was like

[near harbor]

is it because there’s a lot of students wanting care or bc you’re busy

[weak valve]

every 3 weeks

💀

[weak valve]

busy

[twilit current]

both

theres a bunch of students needing healthcare

especially mental healthcare

also anecdotally alot of ithaca therapists are mehhh

[near harbor]

aw
I live near NYC so part of what’s somewhat unsettling about Cornell is its location in the middle of nowhere and not near any big hospitals

How’s the safety too? Do you guys feel safe at night

[twilit current]

yes

youll notice how little sirens there are

also ive like

been stupid

and left my laptop OUTSIDE for hours

[manic ether]

whats up ell university

[twilit current]

and it was

in the same spot

very safe uni

safest of the ivies outside of maybe like.. dartmouth?

[near harbor]

Yay that’s reassuring to hear

[weak valve]

last night

the 6 cops to morri was crazy

😭

idk what happened

[twilit current]

wait whattt

6 cops

oop

[weak valve]

there were 2 at dickson too

[twilit current]

prolly someone got a little tew drunk...

FR?

[weak valve]

yeah

idek what was going on

[twilit current]

i live in dickson and didnt see shit

[weak valve]

dickson loading dock

allegedly

[twilit current]

oop

[weak valve]

honestly it feels safe

i just am scared by the locals

💀

[twilit current]

huh

why

[weak valve]

i had a recent iffy experience

w korei

and it was

so weird

[twilit current]

what happened

[weak valve]

if i was alone i would probably have liek ran

[near harbor]

locals? like non student ithacans?

[weak valve]

idk we were waiting for the bus stop past dark in deep downtown

[weak valve]

yeah

not on campus

[weak valve]

and then some guy pulls up in his pickup truck

gets out

starts crying to us abt how his goldfish died

says we're cute

cries some more abt it

stares at us

walks away

[twilit current]

lol whatthefuck

[weak valve]

i wouldve like

shat my pants

if korei wasnt there

💀

[twilit current]

lol crazy ppl

i mean ive met some locals and

[manic ether]

i mean upstate ny

[twilit current]

interviewed them for the sun

[near harbor]

poor goldfish ig

[twilit current]

and they're normal people

[manic ether]

i dont think i would be surprised

[twilit current]

most of the locals you'll interface with at cornell are working class white people from upstate new york

or the surrounding areas

if you actually venture into the urban areas of ithaca its a bit more hippy dippy

less blue collar

[near harbor]

I’ve been upstate once
just for my Cornell + rochester uni visits

[twilit current]

how was roch

[manic ether]

ive only been to nyc

[near harbor]

I like urochester, they have pretty buildings lol
not a big fan of rit and my dorm tour was delayed by almost 20 mins because one person didn’t arrive yet but I’m still applying to it as a safety

[twilit current]

rit is stinky

[weak valve]

abbots ice cream

is good

near rochester

😭

or is it closer to bear mountain

[ionic belfry]

You’re in the sun? Sick

[near harbor]

Is the sun a big thing at Cornell

[manic ether]

can i make a podcast even though i have nothing related to communcations or journalism

or take part in it idk

[ionic belfry]

Eh not rly unless something big happens but the newspaper is cool

[near harbor]

nice nice
Is it open to all majors? How does it work

[ionic belfry]

Yeah you just have to apply

Same with all the newspapers

[empty scroll]

damn i would’ve gotten him another goldfish

[weak valve]

ive heard

more abt the cornell chronicle

than the sun tbh

[twilit current]

haha ty

[twilit current]

just show up to a meeting - there's no application process!

the sun is the only real newspaper

the chronicle is pretty much state media

its written by cornell staff

and sent around to alum and donors, its pr

the review is the conservative site

[weak valve]

they did a piece on a club im in

and took the photos

and theyre publihsing it in 4 months

💀

[twilit current]

LOL

[twilit current]

yeah
