Does anyone know if Cornell sends pre-II rejections

I think they do silent rejections only

What's the policy for thank you letters? Do we just email them to admissions?
Thanks!

That's what I did. I emailed the coordinator asking for their work emails and sent it to them individually as well, just to make sure, but when I called admissions they said it was OK to just email them to admissions directly.

what is a silent rejection? like just ghost you?

I think kind of -- I believe most schools that "silently reject" will send you a rejection email at the end of the application cycle instead of when they've determined earlier on that they will not extend an interview invitation.

really lame

really lame

I appreciate the schools that have sent me pre-II-Rs, while it sucks, the waiting is much worse.

I applied to cornell in September, if I haven't heard back yet is it a silent R?

last year I got my II in mid Jan and was accepted in March so they definitely interview into the new year for actual spots in the class, not just the waitlist

Did anyone who got an II last week receive an email confirming their interview date?

I emailed separately and she replied. She did say that the Friday before the interview (at least for me - my interview is tuesday), I will get the details

[ducks_are _the best]

Silence since Early August.. is this a soft R? Or are they still reviewing apps?

I think they saw your post. They just sent me spam.

Happy holidays where’s my A

 

[cacebal]

did everyone get the holiday card or only those who have received an II?

 

[deleted1009115]

Everyone

edit: this didn’t age well

 

[electr!c]

Everyone

I didn't get one...

 

[cardamom_coffee]

Didn't get a holiday card 🙁 Seems random?

 

[rainbowpremed]

Happy holidays to you too, you're welcome for the patience 🙂

 

[DorianDinosaur]

Didn't get a holiday card 🙁 Seems random?

Also didn't get one... I hope they know I applied...

 

[Earthworm Slim]

Nice of them to send the card, which is more effort than more than half the other schools I applied to

 

[CowBoy98]

I got one but no II invite 🙁

 

[cacebal]

it does seem super random, maybe it will come later in the day

 

[nycccpremed]

No holiday card and no II lmao. I guess they’re not wishing me happy holidays [emoji23]

 

[lacrossegirl420]

would actually rather not get the holiday card haha, will probably see it and have false hope it's an II lol

 

[caped]

Guessing that people receiving holiday card are still under some type of review, possible people not receiving are no longer considered "under review"

 

[MoreSleepPlz]

I got one and it gave me an anxiety attack. Glad it isn't a rejection but I was really hoping for that II

 

[bpinyourarea]

Can we enjoy our break and not read into this lol

 

[2.9GPA]

Interviewed but no card. Guess I just won’t have a happy holiday :/

 

[caped]

Could be that small amount of people not receiving holiday card are queued for II! Trying to stay hopeful and not assume R pile

 

[jb2000]

no II yet, got the card (complete mid august)...i love how the anxiety around this process causes us to analyze the meaning of every single email (no matter how inconsequential).

 

[caped]

Seems like Cornell is still reviewing late July- Early Aug. Anyone who has not received holiday card complete later?

can we pls not turn this into another BU delay email scenario 😭 if this is like other holiday emails I’ve gotten from schools, chances are they’re sending it out in waves and we’ll receive it later

truuu I refresh my email enough for II I don’t need to be refreshing for a hOliDaY cArD

 

[justagirl213]

Just to add to the confusion, no holiday card or II received. Happy NYE y’all!!!

Me too -- Happy New Year's Eve! Here's to 2021 just around the corner 🙂

 

[joshuamarcus]

They didn’t even get a bot to add our names to the email. The card definitely doesn’t mean anything. Enjoy the new year guys

If anything people who had interviews/ or scheduled to interview didn't get it, so it means that they send it to all that have not been shortlisted yet.

Best of Luck! NYC is the best place to be under normal conditions.

Mm yup spot on.

 

[aPENSTAi]

I believe the first pre-II Rs should be out this if the trend in past years continues
