I'm OOS. Jennifer Mailey called and said I was the last person on her list.
Well, my heart just sank :-/

OOS, technically out of country.Congrats! Are you IS or OOS?
Kinda wish they'd go ahead and send the email of doom. Cornell was a crazy long shot for me, but the optimist in me thought that maybe they needed someone with a low GPA to balance out all the awesome GPA's.
SameI'm in the same boat. I thought I'd go ahead and try, but knew deep down in my heart that I had a small, small chance realistically....
No bag. I'm just using my carry on bag instead of checking luggage. Here's hoping for the best 'cause this interview looks like its my only shot now lolDo you have a garment bag as opposed to a hard case? It's much easier to pack formal clothing this way. All you've got to do is put said clothing on a hanger and fold it. Take it with you carry on and you're good to go. Hard case will be rough. Easy to wrinkle your stuff.
Fold suits in tissue paper to prevent wrinkles! Put it between the pants and jacket and around the entire suit. Good luck!No bag. I'm just using my carry on bag instead of checking luggage. Here's hoping for the best 'cause this interview looks like its my only shot now lol
I'm sad booooo
I'm at work with teenagers right now so I can just blend into the general not caring about anything atmosphere here. We're all moping around with our phones and its working perfectly. Boo.No ringing. Oh well! Trying not to care too too much.
Same day as rejections. That email is sure to give me a heart attack when it comesWhen did wait list emails go out last year?
I emailed Jen asking when the official decisions would be sent out and she replied by saying Monday - don't lose hope yet!
Last year, someone who was rejected got un-rejected because they went through the entire waitlist. Don't give up hope!
For those of you who got a call today, could you please remind me what they said after you have been accepted for the class of 2018?
I was in too much of a shock that I don't remember anything after I said, oh my, thank you..
I hope at least one of you dealt with your excitement better than I did..

I think I vaguely remember saying that I am literally shaking.. But this could be a false memory... HahaYa I had someone else call me, Jai Sweet, she's the Director of Student Services and Multicultural Affairs according to Cornell's site. I actually missed the call and had to call her back. I'd love to hear their stories of how students react when they hear they've gotten in. I was totally ecstatic!
Im international too, and I called because I couldn't be reached by phone and she told me they would try to call the out-of-the-country numbers you gave in your supplemental (if you have them as your current address).Did anyone who was accepted get their email? I'm international and let Jen know in advance that I can't be reached by phone, so I'm holding out for the hope that they'll only contact me by email!
That would be funny to hear! I was working 8 to 8 yesterday and they called my dad. THey told him to text me and have them call me back haha. He said I was at the vets and he asked if it was about my admission, but they refused to talk to him lol poor dad!!Ya I had someone else call me, Jai Sweet, she's the Director of Student Services and Multicultural Affairs according to Cornell's site.

Congrats to everyone who heard good news yesterday! And for those that didn't - it's true that Cornell went through their entire waitlist last year and even called some people who had been rejected. There's no telling what will happen this year (it all depends on how many accepted students accept) but it isn't over yet.
If anyone has any questions feel free to post them or PM me! My first semester at Cornell has been quite the roller-coaster but I love this school and would be happy to discuss it with you guys
I am IS and I just got the call (they called earlier but I missed it) I am so excited! I was rejected from 3 other schools and honestly thought I wouldn't be getting in anywhere this year. I still feel like it is a dream I just can't believe it. I spent 10 minutes running around outside in the snow screaming
How does the whole wait list thing go? Do they mention it in an email right away or do people get a rejection letter then later on get a waitlist email after other students decline?
I applied last year and didn't get in and didn't get onto the waitlist or anything. Seeing as I didn't get a call this past week, I'm assuming a rejection maybe coming (I got accepted to UF, so I'll be going to vet school regardless, but just curious).
