I emailed admissions about this last week and they responded saying:
Thank you!
I doubt they will be working on Monday. Are you sure they don’t start working on the 8th?
Do they only call those who are accepted ?
In previous years they have called those accepted on the first day back (this year it is the 2nd, last year was the 3rd) and then waitlists and rejections go out in an email a few days later.
i dont think i have it
I feel like that was an unintentional leak last year so I’m assuming they figured it out for this year... that doesn’t mean I’ll stop checking my tracking page like a maniac though😉
At my file review last cycle I was told to retake the GRE to increase my verbal score because supposedly they have data that if you do well on the verbal section you will do well in their program
not sure about number of IS applicantsIf you don't mind me asking, what were your verbal scores that they told you to improve?At my file review last cycle I was told to retake the GRE to increase my verbal score because supposedly they have data that if you do well on the verbal section you will do well in their program
I originally got a 154 verbal... but my GPA is also below average so at my file review they said to try to do better on the GRE to make up for that, since GPA and GRE are weighted at 25% each in the admissions formula
Oh no!! I got a 154 on my verbal and a 165 on my quantitative. If they consider the verbal more heavily that sucks
I wouldn’t panic!! A 165 quantitative is super impressive and it’s not like they don’t consider that at all. And if you have a good GPA and experiences it could even it out. I was told that a 154 isn’t terrible it just would’ve helped me to have a higher score since my GPA was lower
If you don't mind me asking, what was you're gpa around? Because I Feel that mine may be considered low for Cornell is well. And may hurt me considering my GRE score for the verbal
So nerve wracking !
Was there any mention of a time? Do they do it early in the morning or afternoon?
If they are calling everyone who got accepted, my guess is it is gonna take a big part of the day!
I think they can call as early as 8am. I’m IS too, good luck!!
It should be a 607 area code number, i believe. Good luck
That's awesome! Good luck to you too🙂
I really hope it is today... I can’t afford waiting like that 48 hours....
Given how it's 9:15am EST and no one has heard anything, I think they're probably not doing it today. 🙁
We should probably consider they may do it differently this year. As far as I know, they never said they were calling people as soon as school starts again. That’s just how it worked last year. On their website it says that admission decisions will be sent electronically..
Yeah they've never really advertised about doing the phone calls, it's just been a courtesy that they've been doing for years so we assumed they would do it again. But like you said, they could have changed it this year. There's no way of knowing. But I agree that if no one has heard by now they aren't doing calls today...
I was thinking the same thing, must be pretty entertaining
Congratulations!!!!!!!! I am so happy for you!!
CONGRATULATIONS OMG
It's not too bad rn, the roads are clear. It's freaking cold, though.
