Cornell University (2024-2025)

[tame sandal]

my friend is choosing to do dickson 3 yrs in a row

[unique musk]

damn

[tame breach]

I think I would die before I did that

[unique musk]

if i get in i will leave

[olive lake]

i don't think i would wanna see the name cornell again if i get rejected lol

[hexed peak]

dickson is actually nice

[tame sandal]

yeah

idm it

[hexed peak]

i'm a fan

[tame sandal]

the worst part is the bathrooms

[hexed peak]

there's no community here

[cerulean shoal]

oo is it for McLLU

[hexed peak]

that's the biggest hting

[tame sandal]

but if u live near an ok bathroom its ok

[tame sandal]

no

[hexed peak]

if you don't get along with your roommates it's gonna suck cause there's no one else in your dorm to hang out with

[cerulean shoal]

it looks pretty but never been inside

[hexed peak]

but i like my roommates so it's fine

[tame sandal]

my ex's hall had decent community

[cerulean shoal]

I don't hang out with anyone in my dorm 😭 don't know anyone in my unit outside the really nice gym bro

[tame sandal]

just socialize with them start of sem and thru out the year and itll be fine

[cerulean shoal]

and ""know"" is an overstatement

[hexed peak]

the problem with dickson is that it's freshman and sophomores mixed up (like my hall is mostly sophomores), and the sophomores don't move in during O-week, when you meet most of the people in your dorm—so it's really empty for the first week

[tame sandal]

oh

[teal trench]

should I apply for a specific residence hall like JAM

[hexed peak]

the sophomores also aren't really interested in hanging out with freshmen cause they have their own friends already

[tame sandal]

yeah his side was all freshmen so it was fine

[teal trench]

is it a vibe

[timber mantle]

hi im just wondering is dyson the hardest school to get into at cornell lol

i applied as an international canadian ib student

[cerulean shoal]

I think so

[tame sandal]

its any other residence hall

[hexed peak]

my area has 3 freshman rooms

and like

[tame sandal]

its all on the document

[hexed peak]

20 sophomore rooms

[tame sandal]

unfort

[hexed peak]

so we all just keep to ourselves

all my friends are in other dorms

yeah that's crazy

[tame sandal]

😂

[hexed peak]

i think it's actually really stupid that they didn't do like a floor of freshmen

or something

or put all the freshmen in the same area

[tame sandal]

i think they tried

but the way sophomore housing works is u literally pick the exact room u want

so the sophs probably picked weirdly

in the available ones

[hexed peak]

i don't spend a lot of time in my dorm anyway and it's pretty quiet at night so i don't mind

[tame sandal]

so it caused a weird mix

[hexed peak]

yeah that makes sense

[tame breach]

How do you get assigned a roommate as a freshman?

[tame sandal]

random

[hexed peak]

you can pick

or random

[tame sandal]

or if u find someone u can pick

[hexed peak]

one of my roommates is random the other is a friend

[teal trench]

is mogging a housing requirement?

[hexed peak]

that i knew before cornell

[swift ether]

Do y’all know anything abt housing accomodations?

[hexed peak]

we also have risley

pronounced "rizzley"

[tame breach]

This made me giggle slightly

[tame sandal]

what the fuck

never repeat that

risley has 0 rizz

[hexed peak]

it looks like a castle

[tame sandal]

like allergies? or

[teal trench]

do residents call themselves the rizzlers

[tame sandal]

nah

gothics

[hexed peak]

if you have dust allergies it's kinda clutch

[tame sandal]

look like castle

[hexed peak]

that's true

[tame sandal]

stop.

[tame breach]

Yeah ur getting rejected just for this buddy

[cerulean shoal]

Im weird and say risley with the dry s 😭

[swift ether]

Nah like disability chronic illness mobility etc

[cerulean shoal]

yes

i call them that

[hexed peak]

this is crazy

i've never heard someone say that

[cerulean shoal]

yes

[tame breach]

Will cornell let me bring my miniature pony to classes

[tame sandal]

they try to give severe disabilities super singles (if u want a single/can afford it) i think

[hexed peak]

we have ponies

[cerulean shoal]

mews also mogs all the other dorms

[tame breach]

no way

[hexed peak]

and like other animals that appear from time to time

[tame breach]

Like therapy ponies?

[hexed peak]

in the ag quad

[cerulean shoal]

I KNOWWW

i love them

[hexed peak]

we had bunnies on north campus during o week

you could just like

[unique musk]

poniessss

[cerulean shoal]

i treat them as such and bike over to the stables

[hexed peak]

pet them

[cerulean shoal]

that was so cute

[tame sandal]

theres ag day

[tame breach]

What’s o week

[tame sandal]

where they bring goats and cows and horses

[cerulean shoal]

also cat cafe

[cerulean shoal]

orientation week

[tame sandal]

first week before classes

[tame breach]

ohh

[tame sandal]

new student orientation

[tame breach]

Is it lit

[hexed peak]

yeah livestock just spawn in sometimes at cornell

[tame breach]

Do they play carti

[tame sandal]

?

[hexed peak]

it's a map hazard

[tame sandal]

its a week

u want them to blast carti all week?

from where??

[tame breach]

Absolutely

[tame sandal]

💀

funny.

[tame breach]

From the ponies

[cerulean shoal]

never before have i prayed on a rejection

[hexed peak]

we have big red beach bash

there are no beaches

[tame sandal]

that is disgsuting

[teal trench]

Does cornell have ample torches placed around the render distance so mobs don't spawn?

[hexed peak]

we have blue light telephones

[cerulean shoal]

No, we have plenty of places without lights so that mobs can spawn (so u can get resources)

[teal trench]

Good enough I suppose

[hexed peak]

it's kinda similar

[tame sandal]

r/woosh

[teal trench]

Ah perfect

[tame breach]

Does cornell have a communal end portal or do I have to build my own

[tame sandal]

/j

[cerulean shoal]

They are also really good for star gazing tho

the clear nights when it was warm out

[teal trench]

The end portal is in Ithaca College.

[cerulean shoal]

😍

[hexed peak]

there's one to nyc

[cerulean shoal]

yea its called the engineering quad

u can never leave

[hexed peak]

it's only open morning and evenings though and costs like 80 dollars

unless you take the other portal that's cheaper but i think it's less frequent

[tame sandal]

ok ping me for real questions 💀 my brain hurts

[swift ether]

Chat what are we doing if we get deferred / rejected / accepted I need celebration or mourning ideas

[unique musk]

watch a movie / take a nap / go take a walk in a park

[teal trench]

If I get rejected ill probably bake cookies

[tame breach]

Is it making ur brain hurt more than being a cornell student’s brain already hurts

[hexed peak]

this is the campus to campus bus and the ourbus

by the way

[unique musk]

if i get rejected i will tweak out then when im done i will take a nap

[tame sandal]

no my brain hurts cuz i have 19 hrs of screen time a day from watching my show and im runnin on 3 hrs of sleep rn.

[tame breach]

Deferred: crying
Rejected: crying
Accepted: crying

[unique musk]

(btw does cornell have a nether hub)

[hexed peak]

idk how frequent the ourbuses are

[cerulean shoal]

wait lowkey i know it sounds like a lot but if u are smart with timing, the flights out of ith can be steals

[teal trench]

yes but the ice highway has been griefed

[cerulean shoal]

correct

[hexed peak]

oh interesting

[unique musk]

bro wtf no mods online?!

[tame breach]

drop the show name

[tame sandal]

the rookie..?

its a normal show

[hexed peak]

what about finals

[tame breach]

Dude r u kidddijg me

[hexed peak]

i've been so locked in all day

[tame sandal]

my first final is saturday

[teal trench]

ikr

[cerulean shoal]

wait is that the one on the shorts

[hexed peak]

me too

[tame sandal]

why would i study now

[cerulean shoal]

i love it

[hexed peak]

oh

[tame sandal]

yeah

[cerulean shoal]

😔 i am

because im going to fail otherwise

[teal trench]

Unironically is there a Cornell MC server for students? That'd be fun, i think

[cerulean shoal]

which one do u have first

[tame sandal]

i have 2 lab reports, 4 lab projects, and a cs assignment due before my first final

[hexed peak]

you could make your own prolly

[tame sandal]

why on earth would i be studying rn

[cerulean shoal]

😨

[tame sandal]

😭

[hexed peak]

i have cs and bio on saturday

[cerulean shoal]

good luck

[tame sandal]

i am drowning

[teal trench]

I am not that responsible ):

[cerulean shoal]

i have cs on sat 😔 2112?

[hexed peak]

thats crazy

[tame sandal]

my friends have gone out like 5 days in a row

[hexed peak]

im in 2110

[tame breach]

Don’t let the engineering students touch the redstone the server will crash

[tame sandal]

and ive ditched

[hexed peak]

wait

are you taking 2800 next sem

[cerulean shoal]

just as bad 😢

[cerulean shoal]

im in 2800 rn

[hexed peak]

oh

you're doubled up

damn

[swift ether]

Aww good luck luv

[hexed peak]

respect

[cerulean shoal]

if i am lucky i will TA it 🙏

[tame sandal]

omg i hope i get to TA cs 1110

[cerulean shoal]

matt is the goat

[tame sandal]

i love walker white

i want to marry him

[cerulean shoal]

all my friends hate him

😢

[hexed peak]

i love legunsen bro

[cerulean shoal]

but his name is walker white i dont understand why

[tame sandal]

why lol

[tame breach]

Cornell dating scene confirmed

[cerulean shoal]

i don't know i think they just hate the class

[tame sandal]

??

[swift ether]

Aint that the bald meth man

[tame sandal]

hes an amazing professor

[hexed peak]

2110 has done me some wrongs but i feel like legunsen has a strong sense of right and wrong in the world

he seems like a morally upstanding fellow

[tame sandal]

theyre just shitty at cs bc their brains function 10 degrees slower than everyone else

dont blame walker

he actually teaches well

[tame breach]

waltuh

[tame sandal]

ur friends clearly dont focus in lecture

or bother attending office hrs

or bother caring on labs

its the free est class on the planet

40% get As

[hexed peak]

physics 1110 might be the shittiest class in existence

[unique musk]

do most people take notes w/ ipad or smt or like actual notebook

[cerulean shoal]

wait yeah u just described them

[hexed peak]

i do both

90% of people are ipads tho

[cerulean shoal]

let me DM u some of the stuff they say its so funny

[tame sandal]

yeah they cant fucking blame walker

theyre just stupid as hell

i have a flat 100 on assignments

and 96+ on both prelims

it is not that hard

[unique musk]

i liek the feeling of writing on paper

[swift ether]

New conspiracy theory just dropped

[cerulean shoal]

🔥

they are

[hexed peak]

ipads are so convenient but i feel like i learn shit better on paper

[tame breach]

@tame sandal real question best way to take notes at cornell during lectures ? Written notes or typed etc

[hexed peak]

so i kinda combine them

[cerulean shoal]

depends on class

[hexed peak]

the only correct answer

is cornell notes

[unique musk]

do u see people use like the windows version of ipad

[hexed peak]

like a surface?

yeah for sure

[unique musk]

(i am not a mac fan sry)

[hexed peak]

yeah i see people all the time with surfaces

or like drawing pads

[unique musk]

its like 1-1.1k tho 😭

[hexed peak]

or you could just use paper

nothing wrong with that

i take most of my class notes on paper

[unique musk]

yeah

[tame breach]

My heart rate has been averaging 120 bpm a day since Sunday bc of the admission date

Anyone else relate

[slate walrus]

i used to hate on ipads until i started doing physics on them

life changed

[tame sandal]

well handwriting is always best cuz of the pathway to memory; but u can type then handwrite after to review

[teal trench]

fr

[hexed peak]

ipads are kind of addictive to write on

[unique musk]

me fr

[tame breach]

Ok good cuz I only hand write notes

[hexed peak]

this is what i do for 2110

i type during lecture and then handwrite when i'm reviewing

it works really well

[unique musk]

idt typing works that well in general? or maybe its faster so u can write down more shi

[hexed peak]

for my cs class it's so i can get all the stuff down in time

[unique musk]

makes sense

[hexed peak]

and have the slides open

[tame sandal]

yeah

this

its faster

thats why i said it.

[hexed peak]

my notes app on my computer also lets me type markdown code cells

like discord

[tame sandal]

personally i dont take notes

[hexed peak]

public static void main

[tame sandal]

cuz it distracts me

i listen in class

then ideally i would review slides and take notes

which i dont do

but ideally

😂

maybe next sem

[unique musk]

ive been working in c# for so long i almost forgot about public static void main

what console do u guys use? vscode or

[hexed peak]

intellij 😎

nah this is just for cs 2110

[tame sandal]

intro cs uses pulsar (new atom)

[gray rover]

vim

[unique musk]

my hs cs class uses jGrasp :3

[hexed peak]

i fw intellij heavy

[tame sandal]

appel pho is so good

im actually obsessed

appel in general solos so hard

[hexed peak]

appel is awesome

morrison had mac and cheese pizza today tho

it was like

heavenly

[tame sandal]

lactose intolerance + trying to eat healthy != mac and cheese ppizza

[hexed peak]

it was so good

i've been trying to eat healthy but i've been losing the battle

cornell's putting up too much of a fight

[tame sandal]

i just dont like what it does to my skin lol

oily food = more breakout

and um

sugary food = fat

[hexed peak]

yeah

[tame sandal]

e.g. cornell ice cream

[hexed peak]

i like eat healthy for a week and then cornell puts out something like mac and cheese pizza and i don't have the willpower within me to resist

[unique musk]

lets see if i get the freshman fifteen or the negative freshman fifteen

[hexed peak]

i can't resist the spiritual pressure of mac and cheese pizza

[unique musk]

https://tenor.com/mSUM2a6PmGT.gif

[tame sandal]

i got freshman fifteen cuz i started eating normal meals

then i went back home for summer and

lost it

now im back and i started working out

[unique musk]

do u have a gym pass for the on-campus or do u just do it urself

[tame sandal]

huh?

wdym do it myself

😭

like build my own weights out of trees?

[unique musk]

sorry stupid question

like buying ur own weights

[tame sandal]

💀

r u still asking me that

[teal trench]

no such thing as a stupid question

but cornell gyms probably have gym equipment already in them

[unique musk]

auiodnferwhauly ok nvm

[tame sandal]

1. college students are poor
2. where would i store the weights
3. where would i get the weights

4. how would i transport the purchased weights to my room

[unique musk]

😦

[teal trench]

you store the weights in your hands, because you're carrying them, because you are buff, because you own weights.

[tame sandal]

5. how would i get sufficient weights to get a full workout without also purchasing a workout bench and or squat rack

[tame sandal]

in my hands?

so im holding 10 diff dumbbells in my room

at all times

in my hands

[teal trench]

yeah

[tame sandal]

while sleeping

i wasnt even speaking to u

[teal trench]

its like a weighted blanket but for your hands

and less blanket

[unique musk]

whatever mb nvm then

[tame sandal]

funny!

[tame sandal]

the gym pass price is googlable its $168 for a sem or year

day pass is $10

so i bought the pass

cuz also the off campus gyms are just

unreasonably far

and the on campus ones are good

or good enough

i personally do not have space in my dorm room for a full gym section

nor do i desire to spend that much money

[torn shell]

does anyone have thag doc of like cornell average acceptances per country

there was like canada, china, india, etc

not the CDS

[pliant thorn]

https://i.imgur.com/uoDQN2D.png

[quaint sand]

that make sense

maybe

uh why cant google docs show the number of visits

[olive lake]

likely letter

[tame sandal]

can still be rejected/deferred

just highly unlikely lol

[olive lake]

Does anyone's fin aid portal say access denied?

[vapid mason]

!cornell

[gaunt gazelle]

ANY PORTAL ASTROLOGY SUGGESTIONS GUYS

[gaunt gazelle]

yep

[vapid mason]

I don't ned portal astrology i know i will get in

[digital nymph]

yk i made summoning circles for ap exams

if i weren't on the grind i'd be tempted to do it for my schools too

[severe timber]

y'all don't wanna come here there's a lot of work🙁

[toxic onyx]

No portal astrology yall

[toxic onyx]

Hey tuna

[digital nymph]

We had a hurricane when ap exams came out and I cooked so uhh might have to summon another one

[tame breach]

Still tweaking

[toxic onyx]

fr fr

[digital nymph]

listen maybe cornell wont work out for me and thags okay

but when i say imma lock in

i mean IMMA LOCK IN

make circles for every school i apply to

[cerulean shoal]

is true so much work for finals 😔

am crying rn

[toxic onyx]

Wait tmrw?

[foggy tree]

no thursday

[toxic onyx]

ahg okay

makes sense

[daring whale]

oh thanks

[tame breach]

Absolutely

That’s the mindset I’m going into this with too

The truth is that cornell is a reach school for anybody so don’t beat yourself up too much if you don’t get in. I’m gonna try to take that approach when I hear back on Thursday. Regardless you’re gonna end up where you need to be

Everyone here is going to end up where they were meant to be. Everything is gonna work out in the end

[night jetty]

college decisions directly align with future success, ur done if u don't get in cornell lil bros

[summer peak]

!cornell

[daring whale]

🤡

[digital nymph]

mhm we live on a floating rock chat we'll live laugh love

we gyatt this

[keen smelt]

!Cornell

[subtle drum]

hola amigos

[tame sandal]

hi

[summer peak]

wait

@tame sandal

bro

please help me i'm actually cooked for my orgo test tomorrow

this is wrong right??

sp3 ch stretch should be to the right of sp2 ch stretch

[tame sandal]

yeah

sp3 is to the right of 3000

[summer peak]

ok cool cool

[subtle drum]

jae, r u chem major?

[tame sandal]

no

i double major in cognitive science and information science

while taking premed track coursework

[summer peak]

wait dawg

[subtle drum]

so chem is on this side?

[summer peak]

how can sp2 stretch have a peak at like

[tame sandal]

chem is a premed requirement

[summer peak]

3100

and also 1600-1700

what's the point of that

[crystal marlin]

@tame sandal Ur the goat always here helping out

[tame sandal]

u mean the C=C?

[summer peak]

bro this man is saving my orgo grade

[summer peak]

are they not the same thing

[tame sandal]

no

[summer peak]

what

[subtle drum]

she is.

[summer peak]

what's sp2 carbon then

[tame sandal]

sp2 isnt necessarily a double bond between carbons

it could mean a double bond between carbon and oxygen

or literally anything

[summer peak]

i mean

[tame sandal]

it just means its sp2

[summer peak]

ok sure

but

sp2 carbon always has the peak at like 3100?

and c=c has a peak at 1600-1700?

[tame sandal]

from what ive seen in my orgo class

[summer peak]

dawg this unit is so fucking stupid bro

[tame sandal]

ir is very rudimentary

[summer peak]

it's not even orgo it's like

idek bruh

it's pattern matching 💀 a 5th grader could do this

[tame sandal]

yeah but be careful u dont confuse it with a C=O bond

[summer peak]

ight

c=o stretch is deeper right

[unique bear]

I’m never taking orgo on god

[tame sandal]

more thinking involved

[summer peak]

bruh

then there's also alkene and alkyne reactions 💀 bro i'm cooked

[tame sandal]

when u do the matching between the structures and the IR spectra its not as easy as u think since many different variants of IR spectra could fulfill the same structure

[summer peak]

bruh hopefully the teacher j tests us on easy stuff 💀

[tame sandal]

depends on the molecule

but i think so

[summer peak]

ok

[tame sandal]

a lot of IR just varies on the molecule

[summer peak]

bruh imma j pray for a 75 man 😭

[tame sandal]

just know carbonyl, aldehyde, alcohol, carboxylic acid, nh, nh2

[summer peak]

wait

[tame sandal]

and i guess the c=o c=c things

[summer peak]

yeah

we also gotta know triple bonds

wait bro what the hell

how do you tell the difference between 2 pentyne and 1 pentyne in IR diagram

what's even the difference

[subtle drum]

is this ap course?

[tame sandal]

they look quite different to me 😂

[summer peak]

wait bro but like how would u even do it

oh wait is it cause like 2-pentyne has more sp3 carbons so the thing at 3000 is stronger

[tame sandal]

yeah

[summer peak]

and the 1-pentyne has sp carbon

ok wait lowk im the goat ok

if i get into cornell

all is forgiven

i hate this class

[tame sandal]

r u premed

[summer peak]

no 💀 i'm just taking this class cause i don't wanna go into college not knowing basic chemistry

[tame sandal]

oh

orgo isnt basic chem but ok

like 2% of ur peers r gonna enter knowing anything abt orgo

[summer peak]

damn

like 60% our grade took the class

[tame sandal]

gen chem comes first

usually

[summer peak]

idk what gen chem covers but most our grade takes like

pchem achem orgo

[tame sandal]

gen chem = ap chem

[tame sandal]

pchem at cornell is like

jr or sr year level shit

and its one of the hardest classes

[summer peak]

oh

interesting

our entire class failed the class lmao

this one icho gold person carried everyone

wait dawg

what's the difference between a ketone and primary amine in the ir thing

[tame sandal]

nh1 is a clear single fang

usually closer to 3300 or 3500

i think

[summer peak]

is there any reason that it could shift

cause there's smth that looks like a primary amine

but the two peaks are at like 2600-3000

[tame sandal]

i dont think so.

[gray rover]

d7?

rook cant defend and if king goes to e7 it'll get forked

[daring whale]

do acceptance letters have confetti 💀

[tame sandal]

i htink so

[daring whale]

howre you jae

[tame sandal]

i only slept like

6 am - 9:40 am

idk why im not crashing yet

but um

its ok

will make the most of productivity hours

the work im doing for my lab rn is so dumbfuck im gonna stream it

[daring whale]

how do you survive on 4hrs of sleep

[tame sandal]

idk

i had a rlly bad headache for a few hrs like 2-5 but its gone now

no

[cyan cedar]

Is the college of human ecology good for premeds?

I saw it has a human biology major that I’m interested in

[tame sandal]

yeah its full of premeds

[cyan cedar]

Ok Ty!

[severe timber]

hello fellow ssper lol

[rugged walrus]

[uncut sundial]

gl yall

[plucky ledge]

!cornell

[cyan cedar]

Omg heyyy

[tame sandal]

hi ask me qjuestions im bored

[velvet shard]

U have a graphic design role, how’s the artistic scene at cornell?

[cyan cedar]

How’s Cornell?

[tame sandal]

that role is for people who make icons for the server

no one has major roles

they put them in their username

[tame sandal]

good

[velvet shard]

lmao alr

[tame sandal]

high demand lol

for clubs and classes that need artists, they r quite desirable to design things

[velvet shard]

Ooh

Interesting

[tame sandal]

like the game design class u r much more likely to be accepted into the class if ur an artist since very few artists apply for it

[velvet shard]

I mentioned game design in my essay :)

The minor

I applied to bfa, wishing for the best whether rejection or acceptance

[tame sandal]

oo aap

fancy

[velvet shard]

Yeah i love aap

And they’re test blind

I applied test optional cuz it isnt offered in my country :’)

Btw, i found conflicting information on whether cornell tracks demonstrated interest or not

[balmy juniper]

applying ed is the highest form of demonstrated interest there is

[tame sandal]

just assume colleges do

but it always weighs quite little

[velvet shard]

On their common dataset, they say they don’t. But in the privacy policy section of they website, they say they track email clicks and session attendances

[velvet shard]

Yeah true

[crystal marlin]

Really?

[uncut sundial]

get back to grinding finals

[olive lake]

is it possible to get a transfer option ED?

[tame sandal]

i have work to do

before finals

so no

i never started

[bronze egret]

No

Defer yes

[olive lake]

[gaunt gazelle]

[gaunt gazelle]

[next steeple]

[gray rover]

!cornell

[gaunt gazelle]

YOOOO

[gaunt gazelle]

[severe timber]

Oh yeah I legit couldn’t figure out how to find my cornell decision last year

[gaunt gazelle]

ED?

[severe timber]

Rd

[olive lake]

before decisions come out? 😭

[valid dagger]

thats kinda just how it is for every ivy on ivy day

[vapid mason]

Can i beat the kids with legacy at my scchool 😢😢

Lets hope

[valid dagger]

you can only do so much when 50k-80k people are all checking their admissions status at the same time

[olive lake]

yes

[tame breach]

Relatable name

[vapid mason]

Wait am i even competing directly with the kids at my school

I dont think sk right

[olive lake]

depends

if you guys are applying to different colleges definitely not

but they may still use your school's applicants to compare in context

[vapid mason]

I have my valecdectorian and 3rd ranked applying same as me

😭

[olive lake]

no direct correlation for acceptance or not tho

they'll still compare you to past applicants prolly

[rugged walrus]

AHHHH

[olive lake]

we all feel that way but a sizeable amoutn of us are getting in

[rugged walrus]

gut is telling me deferral but i dont want that 😠

[olive lake]

same

[gray rover]

How many of you guys are applying CoE

[olive lake]

deferral might be worse than rejection

prolonging the inevitable

[olive lake]

i applied cas :)

[rugged walrus]

nah deferred ppl get in all the time

[gray rover]

nice nice

[rugged walrus]

its rlly not a rejection

[olive lake]

hopefully

3 more months of waiting just sounds like hell for me tho

[rugged walrus]

yea exactly

[gray rover]

yeah I’d rather just get rejected or admitted tbh 💀

Getting deferred just prolongs the stress

[rugged walrus]

def

its out of our hands now🧘‍♀️🧘‍♀️whats meant to be will be

[olive lake]

yes esp if your major is related

i didnt take any non AP courses 😭

a lot of people i knew took classes directly in community colleges

[gray rover]

I put down discrete but I’m talking diff eqs next sem

[rugged walrus]

this might be too deep but my penn ed friend is super religious and shes not stressing at all bc shes confident its in gods hands and im so jealous like i cant j chill like that

[olive lake]

i havent finished calc, rejected yay

[gray rover]

I took a weird route lowkey, went from calc bc and skipped MVC straight to discrete

[olive lake]

if you replace "god" with "ao" then its true for you too

[rugged walrus]

same thing wdym

slash jay

[olive lake]

yea true my major is humanities related so it doesnt matter as much for me but still irrational fear lol

[rugged walrus]

thats cracked

[gray rover]

Yeah that’s the standard path lol, idk why I just wanted to do discrete this semester cuz I’m a cs major and discrete seemed pretty relevant

[rugged walrus]

im in pre calc 💜🎉🙌❤️🔥

HONORS pre calc!

im fucked

[olive lake]

im in calc ab

[unique musk]

crashing outtt

[rugged walrus]

ag sci

[unique musk]

@cedar pendant send link to the poll think again

[olive lake]

i had the chance to be in bc but i was lazy freshman year 😭

[rugged walrus]

it might be over

[unique musk]

thing**

[olive lake]

at the same time i met my friend in precalc so if i skipped it then i wouldnt have met them lol

[rugged walrus]

aw

[unique musk]

dam the A&S comp is insane (whats IRL)

[rugged walrus]

ilr?

yea

[unique musk]

0.o

[gray rover]

did yall cs kids all apply A&S or CoE

😭😭

plz don’t

[unique musk]

bro me fr more CoE applicants means less compf ro me

pls arceus

[tardy trench]

CAS forever

[unique musk]

who needes to take chemistry when u can yap in englis

[rugged walrus]

word

[tardy trench]

cs

[unique musk]

too much CS comp

[valid dagger]

cornell doesnt admit by major

[olive lake]

idt they even admit by major but for institutional priorities they might consider it

[olive lake]

i feel like its a bit more complicated than that, the same way theyre not truly "need blind"

[valid dagger]

its not tho

[unique musk]

do they admit by school?

[valid dagger]

and they are need blind for domestic applicants

[olive lake]

yeah thats my point

[valid dagger]

yes

no

[olive lake]

true but they still have to consider financial reasons to admit fgli people over middle class applicants

[valid dagger]

certain majors are larger at every school

[unique musk]

yeahhhhh my school has like no CAS applicants all the sweats are going engineering

[olive lake]

so they're not really "blind"

[valid dagger]

that is not how it works

that's not what need-blind means

nor is it how being fgli is considered during admissions

[olive lake]

it means ability to pay does not affect an admission decision

[valid dagger]

again thats not how it works

especially because middle class applicants cannot afford to pay $90k/year for college either

[rugged walrus]

cals admits by major im like 99 percent sure

[unique musk]

ong its not 90k

[olive lake]

its like high 80k

[gray rover]

it is 😭

[unique musk]

!google does cornell admit by major

[pliant thorn]

ApplyingToCollege

GOOGLE SEARCH

SEARCHED FOR:
does cornell admit by major

Result: Jump!

[gray rover]

around

[unique musk]

google says no

[olive lake]

i mean they dont admit by major directly

[olive lake]

thats just tuition

[unique musk]

thats what i meant

[olive lake]

dorms, food, other fees included its 80k

[unique musk]

ah

[valid dagger]

oh sorry i thought you said CAS lol

[rugged walrus]

all good haha

[olive lake]

yeah im just wondering how they build a well rounded class if they dont admit by major indirectly

[valid dagger]

yeah the schools each have different admissions processes but engineering and cas do not

cals is a very niche school

[rugged walrus]

CALS PLEASEEEE LET ME IN I HAVE A MUG AND EVERYTHING

[olive lake]

i have a cornell teddy bear

[gray rover]

im just gonna print out the cornell logo and tape it to my tshirt

😭 🙏

[unique musk]

holy

time to start scholarship applications

[swift ether]

Holy moly

[rugged walrus]

get that tf out of my face

[olive lake]

did you not do css and fafsa 😭

[rugged walrus]

ignorance is bliss

[unique musk]

my parents say we dont qualify for need-based

[valid dagger]

then why did you apply ed lol

respectfully

[olive lake]

tbh yeah

well ig you can still drop out if you cant pay for it

but idk how that process goes

[unique musk]

im pretty sure we CAN pay for it

[gray rover]

I think you need to show proof of income

[swift ether]

Lowkey so stressed about paying that I want to get deferred

[unique musk]

at least thats what my parents said

[valid dagger]

its a massive pain and kind of hard to prove

[bronze egret]

1 day guys

[valid dagger]

and also defeats the point of applying ED because the main premise is that you will go if you get in

[bronze egret]

U got it

[olive lake]

two big tests tomorrow as well for me 😭

oh well

[rugged walrus]

omggg

i might know where im going to college this time tmr

[olive lake]

we will all get in i see it using portal astrology!

[tame sandal]

i dont think thats maturity

[tame breach]

i didnt know it was worth 40% 😭

[tame sandal]

its finals season

e verything im doing is worht a shitload

[tame breach]

definitely NOT something worth 40% of my grade

[tame sandal]

its all final projects

yeah if it were a 1% hw assignment maybe 😭

[tame breach]

i had no idea its finals season

[tame sandal]

what are the odds they end before getting to me

😂

[kind flame]

what did y'all do for the 3 words to describe cornell engineering

[tame sandal]

synchronized swimming team

[kind flame]

do u do swimmin or smth

[tame sandal]

i did in like grades 5 - 11

[valid dagger]

cornell electives go insane

[tame sandal]

omg

they got to me

only 2.5 hrs

holy shit

this class sucks

[empty coral]

you have to make it until decisions come

[kind flame]

hows partying like compared to hs

well i mean i js wanna know if ppl like do it more regularly bc at least at my hs all the nerdy kids dont rly party all that freq

the overlap btwn kids ik goin to cornell and those that party a lot is rly rly small at least in hs

[valid dagger]

there’s partying at every school lol

cornell goes p hard from what i’ve heard

you should see a usc drumline party

[valid dagger]

shits wild

[kind flame]

cornell engineering:

1. black
2. out
3. drunk

idfk imma js put smth random im rly overthinkin this

[slate walrus]

!cornell

[unique bear]

I do as well

[tardy trench]

what boost does fgli single-parent household give if at all

[empty coral]

bob jones:

[valid dagger]

it’s additional information but it doesn’t swing the pendulum in any particular direction

[mild frigate]

😔

[olive lake]

yep not doing rd till winter break lol

[dusk arrow]

I dont think its going to change your results by tommorow, but u shouldnt worry you are going to get in where u are supposed to go

[olive lake]

i dont think its possible but how would you react to transfer option

yeah

i think its only for rd but this is just a hypothetical

yea same

[slate walrus]

how many of these do they give out a year

[olive lake]

not a lot but more than 99% of schools

[slate walrus]

my school had like 4 regular offers and 3 transfers

we're in state

[olive lake]

and im 90% sure its rd only

i cant imagine theres a lot

they would be sacrificing admissions spots for the year after

[empty coral]

it can be a celebration cake or a coping cake depending on how stuff goes

im getting ice cream after my decision no matter what

[olive lake]

thats a great idea!

[empty coral]

someone from my hs got it last year and we arent that big or prestigious

we get like 3 ivy admits per year on average

[olive lake]

3 ivy admits is above average

[empty coral]

but a lot of the people who do transfer option end up staying at their first college

[olive lake]

my school had a handful too

but they were so cracked lol

[empty coral]

the person from my school stayed at binghamton

instead of transfer to cornell

[tardy trench]

How do colleges go about comparing u to classmates who are also applying? Does it benefit me if nobody from my school is applying cornell ED too

[slate walrus]

yea we got a bunch of bing > cornell transfers

last year

our school is like 10-15% ivy probably

[empty coral]

bing is the closest public thing to cornell

[olive lake]

i imagine they put you in context when it comes to your grades & rigor

bc gpa can't be compared across schools

[empty coral]

out of my class of like 150 kids per grade we get like 3 ivy admits per year, and it’s usually penn for some reason

[olive lake]

and probably not, cornell will take as many (or as little) as they want, if there are no other ED applicants they'll be looking at past applicants

[empty coral]

penn has taken at least 2 kids from my school for the past 3 years

idk why

[slate walrus]

are you in NYC

[empty coral]

at cornell admission is by college so if they applied to a different college then they dont even see

[empty coral]

north jersey

[slate walrus]

cool

are you by bergen county academies

my friend goes there i think

[olive lake]

i imagine theyll still compare applicants but it just wont affect chances

[empty coral]

no, morris county

[slate walrus]

oh cool

[olive lake]

like they'll use other applicants to see how your school operates

[empty coral]

i go to a public school in morris

[olive lake]

but ultimately there wont be a competition or anything

[empty coral]

ya probably

im making so many promises to myself if i get in

[dusk arrow]

li and jersey is a big part of cornell

school pop

[empty coral]

yeah, sucks for me

nobody else from my school gaf about cornell

[olive lake]

my school has a bunch of people applying cornell ed :/

[empty coral]

im an atheist but if i get into cornell ill get baptized

[dusk arrow]

me too i have 13

[empty coral]

bc its just not happening

[olive lake]

whoa

[swift ether]

Cornell is v close to my school so we get several applicants despite being like a fuckass small town public school

[empty coral]

jesus

[dusk arrow]

its okay my school has like a decent ed acceptance😭😭

[olive lake]

my school has one recruited athlete to cornell

so we're not blacklisted 😄

[dusk arrow]

well ny public schools do get an edge in admissions

so its prob not a bad thing

[empty coral]

i hope yall have fun at cornell after they defer me

and reject

[dusk arrow]

ur getting in

[empty coral]

im so anti hope rn

[olive lake]

im getting rejected prolly not even a deferral

[dusk arrow]

doomcore

[olive lake]

gotta be numb to it!

[empty coral]

im already in 2 good schools so im happy

[swift ether]

Just for contract schools I fear BUT I’m applying ILR so they better let me in 👅 (I’m so atrociously below the CDS I don’t know how they even let me apply)

[empty coral]

ill have to take suny ithaca out of my name though 😔

[olive lake]

lucky, not even my state school has given me a decision yet 😭

[swift ether]

Ooo which if y don’t mind me asking?

[swift ether]

SAME

[dusk arrow]

good luck bruh 🤞🤞

[olive lake]

literally my first school will be cornell

[swift ether]

SUNYS WHY DO U TAKE SO LONG HELLO

[empty coral]

minnesota and binghamton, i would b happy going to either

[dusk arrow]

omg stony is taking forever
