[mild oyster]

[ionic hearth]

[restive raven]

ok ill run you down on what i had for my process

[ionic hearth]

ngl this is crazy but not as bad as us healthcare 😭

[elfin thunder]

Healthcare fucked here

Go Canada

[teal plover]

or europe

[mild oyster]

Yoon are u in the Stanford snap gc

[teal plover]

not currently but im grounded rn 🥲 🥲 🥲

[elfin thunder]

How

Your mom

[restive raven]

so first u go on those bed things
then they wash your face super clean
then they put anesthesia cream on your face (this is important or else u will die 😭 )
then they get those pimple popping things and literally squeeze the shit out of your face
then u do like light treatment thing idk what its called
then u go to laser room
and they shoot lasers at your face
and for places with big pimples they get syringes and give u shots

it hurts like SHIT

but worth it

SO worth it

[mild oyster]

and u did that 6 times

[teal plover]

i fell asleep while being on my phone and mom thought i was ignoring her when she called my name from downstairs 💀

[elfin thunder]

The pimple popping is so bad

Ik wym

[restive raven]

the worst part is when they give u shots on your face

[mild oyster]

over how long of a period

[teal plover]

bro the anesthesai cream

istg that didnt work for me on my arm

[restive raven]

like its way worse than when we do it ourselves cuz they dont feel it

[restive raven]

😭

[elfin thunder]

Is 6 ivies not enough Jheez

[restive raven]

the anesthesia cream saved me

[restive raven]

i did it once a week

[teal plover]

😭 😭

[elfin thunder]

Yeah exactly

But tbh

[teal plover]

popping pimples is kinda satisfying

[elfin thunder]

Cerave + exfoliate is all needed

[mild oyster]

Noticeable change after 1 treatment?

[restive raven]

lil pro tip but being a dermatologist at korea will make u insanely rich

[restive raven]

6*

[teal plover]

FFR

[restive raven]

after 6 i was a whole new person

[teal plover]

my childhood dreams

[mild oyster]

6 weeks is crazy

[restive raven]

like i was so white

i stayed for 8 weeks last time

[elfin thunder]

Doctor yoon …

[teal plover]

nonexistant 😀 😀

[mild oyster]

Korea might be the move this summer

[restive raven]

i think going to korea and becoming a dermatologist might not even be bad for me

[teal plover]

COME TO KOREA ‼️

[restive raven]

ok but ngl staying there for 6 weeks without a house is kinda hard

its easy for me cuz i have a house in korea

but like airbnb/hotel for 6 weeks might be uncomfortable

[elfin thunder]

If I go Seoul what I do

[teal plover]

no fs or a plastic surgeon

[teal plover]

go to hongdae

[restive raven]

come to my house

[teal plover]

[elfin thunder]

[restive raven]

yeah theyre rly rly big

no joke korea is sm better than america

[teal plover]

i think south korea and japan actually has a lot of simliar attractions

japan is a bit more xenophobic tho i think

[restive raven]

everything is literally walking distance and u dont need to do anything everything just takes care of itself

[teal plover]

that prob is controversail

[restive raven]

i dont have to drive 10 minutes to get milk in korea

[teal plover]

bes tpart tbh

[ionic hearth]

[mild oyster]

I wanna go skiing in Japan

[teal plover]

and also it's generally really safe

[teal plover]

that would be so fun actually

[restive raven]

ok personally speaking korea sucks ass if youre poor but its way better than america if youre rich

the wealth gap in korea is p insane too

[elfin thunder]

Japan > Korea > China

[restive raven]

[elfin thunder]

India perfect for u if u get cs tbh

[restive raven]

[dull rover]

Nooo child labor

😭

[main cedar]

Called the office at 10:00:20 and I'm on an hour hold 🔥🔥

I feel so bad for many calls the offices are going to get today

[rugged gull]

Why will they get so many calls again

What did i miss

[main cedar]

RD decisions

Admitted students asking questions for whatever, waitlisted asking whatever, rejected asking whatever

Everyone will call after the university released decisions for thousands of applicants lol

[rugged gull]

Whoooo

[main cedar]

I'm working hard to work out my dorm situation because with how many students Cornell admitted this year I'm making sure I'm not sleeping in the Gorges

[ionic belfry]

My strategy was to rank female housing first

[main cedar]

Wait what

[ionic belfry]

I mean you get to rank housing on the form

They’ll ask if u want female, coed or program houses first

Female is all AC and nice dorms so I did that and got lucky lmao

Coed is either not great mid or rly nice

Program u know exactly what u get which is a benefit

[main cedar]

What are program houses

[ionic belfry]

Based for certain minorities usually

There’s an African American one

International one

[main cedar]

Ah ok

[ionic belfry]

But also like a theatre one

And an ecology one

[main cedar]

First year are required on North campus right

North and smth else

[ionic belfry]

Yeah north

[main cedar]

Ok cool

[ionic belfry]

Second year is north, south or west

Or Greek life

[main cedar]

Oh cool

And we can select our roommates if we have a friend right?

[ionic belfry]

Yeah

[main cedar]

I'm just confirming what I think I know atp 😭

[ionic belfry]

Most people pick their roomates

[main cedar]

Ok cool thanks

Yeah

I'm trying to get in contact with one of the 6 other male NROTC scholarship admits to Cornell so my roommate won't kill me for waking up for PT 3 times a week lmfao

If I can't get an rotc roommate I hope they're an early bird!

[ionic belfry]

Pick ur roomate then

Or u can go random and say u wake up before 7 on the roomate survey tbh

[main cedar]

Yeah I'm looking around. I'm using CUonthehill and insta to look around

[ionic belfry]

Def

[main cedar]

Chatting with some people and making friends

[ionic belfry]

Insta prob better

[main cedar]

Really?

[ionic belfry]

No one rly uses cuonthehill

[main cedar]

For class of 28 it shows 2k active users

[ionic belfry]

Active just means they have a profile

But if it works for u that’s good lmao

[main cedar]

Right

Theres 500 online it shows

[ionic belfry]

For dorms on north I’d prob rank them

[main cedar]

Did you find a roommate or random

[ionic belfry]

RBG/HU SHIH/MCLINTOCK>mews/CKB>low rises/high rises/donlon/dickson

[ionic belfry]

Found mine

She’s cool

Ilr kid

[main cedar]

That's awesome

All my friends found their roommate before attending so I'd like to do that too

[rugged gull]

hi, im panda, im from india

[main cedar]

Lmfao

Hi Panda

[rugged gull]

hi syntch

ok roomie or not?

[main cedar]

lol let's talk first

[rugged gull]

worth a shot.

[weak valve]

Single >

[main cedar]

Study buddy >

[rapid sedge]

hello! so i kind of accepted the waitlist spot on a whim but want to withdraw now after committing elsewhere… what do i do

[young linden]

email them?

[main cedar]

Email or call. It's the Monday after decisions so if you call now expect a wait

[lavish marlin]

same but im scared to just dm ppl on instagram 😭

[main cedar]

Lmfao same

Imo find people with interests and just talk a bit

If yall seem like you're hitting it off I'd ask

[lavish marlin]

yeah i was looking through the 2028 page and saw some ppl with similar interests but i dont want to them out of nowhere

[main cedar]

Better than finding out your roommate randomly and never speaking once before

[lavish marlin]

and they think its weird or smth

true

[main cedar]

Are you on the page

[lavish marlin]

nah i havent posted yet

bc i havent committed

[main cedar]

I've been trying to get on it I'm so impatient 😭

[rain burrow]

I found my roommates randomly and now I live in a single :)

[lavish marlin]

are they slow with it lol

[rain burrow]

well triple sized so no le

Single*

[main cedar]

Well it's student ran so they're busy with stuff

[lavish marlin]

ohh

thats fair

have u already dmed them

to put u on it

[main cedar]

So you had a roommate then decided to go single?

[main cedar]

You apply using their link

[rain burrow]

Both my roommates dropped out

😭

[main cedar]

It says I'm 5th in the que

[lavish marlin]

oh wait yea

[rain burrow]

One never showed up

[lavish marlin]

i saw that

[main cedar]

Oh damn 😭

[rain burrow]

Anyways I didn’t mind having a random roommate they just dropped out for family emergency

Though I will say

Most of my friends weren’t so lucky

[main cedar]

Oh that's unfortunate

[rain burrow]

So good luck finding ur roomies!

[main cedar]

I need to contact my unit to see out of the 8 nrotc scholarship students how many are actually committing so I can start bugging them

[weak valve]

Ur not suppswd to live w friends

It can make it significantly more tense

Hence, single >

[weak valve]

Agree

Many met on insta

And since u can be rlly fake on socials and not be ur real self

[ionic belfry]

Agreed

[weak valve]

Its rlly easy

[ionic belfry]

I do think it’s better than random tho

[main cedar]

[weak valve]

Yeah ig u can coordinate more things but my friends roomie like

Lied to sound ideal and nice

And turned out a freak show

[ionic belfry]

LOL

[weak valve]

They met on insta

[main cedar]

I'd rather attempt to find a roommate and take that risk than risk being placed with someone like that without having ever spoken to them

[weak valve]

Thru the co2027 acc

[weak valve]

Fair but usually from what ive heard random matches r largely like

Just mutual cohabiting

In silence

Keeping to urself

[main cedar]

Cool

I've wanted a sibling forever so I absolutely want a roommate I can bug and vice versa

[ionic hearth]

Omg Cornell mega thread edating

[white tide]

idk but for GT calc said 20-30k in grants, I ended up getting 0 as an OOS

[slate kernel]

Yeah GT gives like no aid for for OOS, but I heard Cornell is pretty generous

[dry summit]

They’re awkward af to walk in

[restive raven]

🗿

i think theyre fine

just gotta be careful so you dont get holes on your pants near the heel

[dry summit]

Yeah i just dont like when they drag

Especially when the floor is wet

[restive raven]

[ionic hearth]

incredible

hi cat @shell prairie

[gritty maple]

is there any chance a waitlist now could help in transferring next year if your name isn't pulled off? probably not since there are a lot of waitlists given out but idk if there's a correlation

[shell prairie]

Hi

[worn sandal]

did anyone get TO (transfer option)

[elfin thunder]

hi im premed now

for my first semester what classes should i take? im thinking knocking out math (so calc 1 + stats)

[weak valve]

It depends on ur uni each uni has its own recommendations of the track

Many take their calc math + one intro bio + gen chem 1 + english writing

Like cornell has a pretty straightforwrad sequence

And im sure any othet uni dors too

[weak valve]

But depending on place u prolly dont need all this at once

[elfin thunder]

got it

[elfin thunder]

how much creds do u recommend per semester

[weak valve]

depends on ur major lol

everything depends

premed is a track

not a major

[elfin thunder]

oh i see

yeah

[weak valve]

its a list of requirements and u just

complete it

when u can

[elfin thunder]

oh ok

[elfin thunder]

are you triple major?

[weak valve]

i want to2 majro 1 minor

[elfin thunder]

psych, cog sci, neuro?

[weak valve]

psych cog sci majors

minor in sci and tech studies

[austere flare]

some people in my school did

[ionic hearth]

oh yeah

[restive raven]

me

[haughty crown]

Sent my loci 🙏 everyone hope for the best

[tardy steppe]

Gl!

[haughty crown]

THANKS

I’m actually quite proud of it.

[sand hearth]

gl evie!

[haughty crown]

Thank you love

They responded 😔

I should send my grades again and send a letter in late April. Wtf

[random cargo]

feel like the waitlist will be weird this year though cause cornell admitted so many people

like 5139 people admitted for like 3000 seats

dunno

[tropic copper]

Only 60-70% accept

[random cargo]

yeah that's true

also tbf the waitlist is managed by college so it could be different

some colleges have much higher/lower yield than others

[tropic copper]

Oh shit 0.7 * 5139 = 3597

[random cargo]

yeah that as well

[tropic copper]

Def

[random cargo]

it's a 4% increase from the number of admitted students last year

[valid obsidian]

hey guys :O do we need to provide 2nd semester updates to cornell? if so where on the portal can we find it?

[random cargo]

and i don't think cornell increased its seats by 4%

[dense ore]

they admitted less during ED

[random cargo]

yeah i heard that

but i think the 4% is overall

not RD

[forest plume]

wait i got a different response

it was for coe though

[haughty crown]

What did you get?

I’ll send my letter, or the main information if you’d like to see it.

[haughty crown]

Maybe send a letter with your ref number

I’m actually not sure, but they are interested in grades. I honestly don’t understand how the wl works. Is it ranked? Will submitting certain things push me up?

[random cargo]

waitlist is not ranked

[haughty crown]

How do they decide who is first

It’s gotta be ranked

[rugged gull]

"eeniee meeniee mino mo..."

[haughty crown]

Lmao

Catch a tiger by his toe

[random cargo]

they reevaluate applications after spots have opened

because they try to compose classes what i've heard is that they will try to look for someone similar to a person who was accepted but didn't commit

[haughty crown]

Dude that’s crazy lmao

Thanks

[supple mauve]

where to find cute merch🙌🏾

[main cedar]

Waitlists tend to hand select people to fill whoevers spot is up for grabs

If a male engineer with some hook or smth declines their offer they would search the waitlist for a similar applicant

[haughty crown]

That sucks, but thank you.

[main cedar]

Cornell team store. For the low low price of your life savings you too can get a Cornell sweatshirt 🎉

[sand hearth]

thats weird

[haughty crown]

It’s annoying because an ao from the school I applied to told me to send a letter today lmao

But I just got a generic response with a personal comment

[sand hearth]

that's so weird

[random cargo]

cornell hoodie ran me 70 dollars

a t shirt was 30

[main cedar]

Yeah expensive af

I got a sweatshirt for 65 and a waterbottle for 45 💀💀

Got the free cheap t shirt tho 👌

[random cargo]

wait how do u get that

the t shirt

[main cedar]

https://admissions.store.cornell.edu/default

[random cargo]

oh shoot thanks

[main cedar]

Put your email in and you get a code. Add the class of 2028 Cornell t shirt in your cart and apply the code. It's free with no shipping costs or taxes

[ionic belfry]

AO told me it is

For Nolan at least

[sick creek]

damn

[sick creek]

wait huh so they want 2 LOCIs? or did they mean they only want LOCIs but only in late April

[ruby smelt]

Hey! Could someone give any feedback, really trying to weigh out my options

https://discord.com/channels/786557653924708373/1224530174629122139

[haughty crown]

I guess they really only want a late April one… even though an AO told me they want it today

They are setting me up for failure

[weak valve]

my advisor in hs told me midapril

since that time difference shows u took into consideration other factors

[haughty crown]

That makes sense

But my heart and soul has been with Cornell since they deferred me

3 locis

@forest plume I’m dying to know what your letter said

[dry summit]

Hopefully yield is lower so that you can be off the waitlist

Is it true that theres been alot more cross admits across ivys these last few years

[haughty crown]

Thank you bae

I hope to join you next year

[mossy flower]

THANK YOU

[main cedar]

Np

Can first year students apply for housing programs. JAM is so cool there's recording studios AND PRACTICE ROOMS FOR INSTRUMENTS

Literal dream can just walk down to practice my sax 😭

[ionic belfry]

Yeah

You’d get jam too if u want it

Have a bunch of friends there that got randomly placed into jam

It does get rly loud lmao

[main cedar]

Like in the dorms, too?

Are the practice rooms not very sound proof lol

[ionic belfry]

If youre on the bottom floor yeah

Otherwise you’re fine

[main cedar]

Dang

Is this single or double for rooms?

[ionic belfry]

Nah it’s worth it if you like the vibe

They have singles, doubles and triples in jam

[main cedar]

Oh nice

I only see applying for 23-24 year so I assume the form would open tomorrow?

[ionic belfry]

Maybe

We registered for housing a few weeks ago

So that would make sense

[main cedar]

Wdym you registered for housing

[ionic belfry]

Freshman sign up for everything after all the other grades

[main cedar]

Ohhh ok

Gotcha, thanks

[weak valve]

lincoln is open a lot

idk exact hours but they have a ton of practice rooms

theres also some level of piano in like almost every building

[sick creek]

were u admitted thru waitlist last yr?

also does Cornell require freshman to live on campus/dorm

[weak valve]

no

but thats what he told me for my wls at case westerna nd uchi

[weak valve]

yes fresh and soph

[sick creek]

ohh i see

[main cedar]

Is that a building or dorm area?

[forest plume]

just a thanks and something personal ish to what i wrote, like not automatic response

[weak valve]

right across the bridge from north on central

its like the 2nd building

[main cedar]

Oh cool

[weak valve]

its the music hall

[main cedar]

Oh nice

Is JAM close to Lincoln, too?

I'm very music oriented so I think this would be cool. I gotta research it a bit though

[weak valve]

no

its not

its like a 15 min walk

jam isnt close to any bus stop lol

close as in less than 5 min walk

jams p deep in north

next to hu shih and rbg and lwo rises

jam is a low rise

[main cedar]

Do you know how far it is from engineering areas?

[weak valve]

very far

all of north is

😭

its a map

[main cedar]

Damn they don't have air conditioning

Do most dorms not have air conditioning

[weak valve]

yeah cuz its an ivy its old

[weak valve]

yellow = north

blue = engineering

purple = arts

green = west

pink = bio/humec/cals/bailey hall

some cs/large classes are in bailey

[main cedar]

So North would be just as far to engineering

[weak valve]

u can only live on north

as a freshman

😭

[main cedar]

Right

[weak valve]

for reference, a walk from robert pucerll to collegetown bagels

is like

20-30min

depending on ur walk speed

[main cedar]

Welp

At least freshman 15 won't come easy

[ionic belfry]

WHY IS EVERUOME IN COCKTAIL RN

[mossy flower]

theyre not kissing right

[haughty crown]

Oh, interesting. Mine wasn’t automatic but half was from. The first part was personal.

They said weird stuff, like updating them on what I plan to do in the summer 😭 so annoying.

[white minnow]

I will be accepted off the waitlist I will be accepted off the waitlist I will be accepted off the waitlist I will be accepted off the waitlist I will be accepted off the waitlist I will be accepted off the waitlist I will be accepted off the waitlist I will be accepted off the waitlist I will be accepted off the waitlist I will be accepted off the waitlist I will be accepted off the waitlist I will be accepted off the waitlist

[sand hearth]

the dining hall ice cream compensates for that

[ionic hearth]

guys

i just had the craziest day ever getting to cornell

[weak valve]

😭

[silent girder]

is it frowned upon to submit an extra LOR for waitlist?

if anyone knows

[ionic hearth]

EWR airport 😊 😊

i am here now though

and holy shit it's gorgeous

[haughty crown]

They don’t ask for it

And I don’t even think will accept it. There isn’t a place to submit that.

[silent girder]

ah alright

I was gonna tell my teacher to email my AO or somethin

[uncut slate]

Did anyone get their Cornell acceptance package yet

[rugged gull]

Nop

[plush monolith]

Nope

[haughty crown]

Yeah, don’t worry about it. Not worth anyone’s time.

[silent girder]

ight

[sand hearth]

tbf I've done similar things before

whether it will help or hurt who knows

some people say that AOs get annoyed by having too much paper to go through

others would say that more is better

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[haughty crown]

You sent a LOR after being waitlisted?

They don’t ask for it when you are waitlisted, they do when you are deferred (optional ofc)

Actually no, they don’t want them.

[sand hearth]

not to cornell but i did it for other schools
