I think it should be around 150k USD ( should include tuition+ living+ misc.) for an international student or a smidge higher.

There is also a google group that has been created for all the admits, hoping that we all get to know each other before we land up in Ithaca... Here it is -

Anyone have any idea when Cornell sends out the emails regarding the background checking (Kroll etc)? I read somewhere on the website that "a background check is required before matriculation". Is there any information in the pack? Mine hasn't arrived yet.

I have only skimmed through the binder but I am pretty certain that there is nothing about the background check in there.

According to ariel, Cornell does the background check two weeks before classes start: kroll-background-check-59285-60.html?hilit=kroll#p807402

I didn't see anything about it in my admission binder.

I had my interview on the same day, yet I applied in R3. Don't you think it is a little late to get an interview in R3? Are we considered R4 now? Which would automtically mean no $$.

It is late, but one thing I've discovered in this process is that for most schools, the deadlines sometimes get bent. Did you ask your interviewer when you should expect to hear back? That would tell you whether you are considered R4 or or an extended R3. Regardless, if you got your application in by the R3 deadline I don't think they would automatically disqualify you from $$ consideration.


I did speak to an adcom member about when I would hear back because if I do get accepted I would want to attend DJ on April 8th. So the adcom member mentioned that I would not be pooled in with R4 and should hear back very soon as in maybe next week. I am guessing we may still be considered for $$ as we are R3 applicants but I am not sure how much of the funding pool is still up for grabs. So fingers crossed... Oh and also... my application status changed to Complete!

I officially withdrew my spot in the class of 2013 today - will be attending Yale in the fall. I hope this helps at least one applicant out there..
