I hope they aren't done with waitlist movement, though.....! It seems like with Cornell there is a flurry of activity in May and then hardly anything after.

congratzmissmod said:Hi everyone,
I also got an email yesterday morning! I am definitely accepting the offer. The only other school I would go to over Cornell would be Penn, but I don't think my chances of getting in off their waitlist is that high. In any case, in terms of correspondence, I sent them two letters -- 1 about this project I did with teaching kids about neuroscience and another about Phi Beta Kappa.
Eraserhead, I don't know much about Michigan's finaid, but why do you say that Cornell's aid will definitely beat Michigans? Does Cornell's financial aid have a good reputation?

Eraserhead said:I think we should form an anti-email/SDN checking support group though.
Bendrix said:I think the first step is admitting you have a problem. I noticed (oh so long ago) that Cornell rolled out their interview offers exactly once a week. I'm now operating under the totally unjustifiable assumption that they'll do the same one-in-seven-days thing with waitlist movement. That means no obsessing until Friday. At least about Cornell.
Bendrix said:I'd love to know in what sort of time-frame Cornell was asking for a respose to their Friday offers. Anyone care to share?
Eraserhead said:On a side note, I just asked this on another thread but is orientation the last day they would call someone or the first day of classes?
Bendrix said:It's a good question, Ice. Today the answer is yes. Early last week it was no.
By the way, is the 23 in your name in honor of Ryne Sandberg?
Bendrix said:Ice, I just realized that you're also on the upper tier at Hopkins, so I'll throw your question back at you.
Bendrix said:Is there really nothing left to say?

DW said:Dear Cornell admissions office
I know I hold no sway as a lowly med student, but I beseech you to please let Eraserhead/DrK in already for crying out loud. It's rare a school can find someone as enthusiastic about it as he is for us, and I'm sure he won't dissappoint you. Its not that hard, just say "admit"
Sincerely,
DW

snoopdizzle said:Hey, anyone who has their screename named after David Lynch's seminal classic Eraserhead should get admitted. Hands down.

Bendrix said:So...has anyone received one of those are-you-still-interested emails lately?
DrJ2B said:Hey Eraserhead!
I totally know how you feel as I am waiting on my dream school, UPenn. I am rooting and praying for you man. You have as much love for Cornell as I have for UPenn and for that I admire and applaud you. I wish you the best in getting off that waitlist. You definitely deserve it!
babyface said:Hey guys,
I just wanna let you know that the waitlist is still moving. I know someone who got in yesterday (Thursday) through email. It also gives 2 weeks for decision. So I guess the hypothesis about Cornell sending acceptance once every 2 weeks might be true....good luck everybody!
