Thanks for the responses, guys. Yes, I've also read articles regarding brevity and basically saying not to waste the adcom's time and/or seem like a control freak. I guess at this point I just feel like there are risks both ways - either risk annoying them with an email reiterating information that they already have (though there may be value in getting your point across a second time), or risk having them kinda forget about you. Obviously, I'm over-thinking this, as many of us do.

Obviously, I'm over-thinking this, as many of us do. See if you can get another recommendation put in, hopefully from their alumni base in your chosen field. Or maybe someone senior in your job attesting to your strengths and leadership. At this point, you've already proven your continued interest so they know you would be coming if they pull the trigger. Now you just have to convince them the strength of your profile and your employability in your chosen field. Another possible area to target may be something unique about you or that you've done, that makes you stand out. Remember, you were WL'd because your app/profile is strong enough for them to consider, but maybe not unique enough to stand out. Good luck! I know its tough, i've been there.

Obviously, I'm over-thinking this, as many of us do. Hi, I am also on Cornell WL r3. I would suggest you to contact clubs that you are interested in, and talk to the president or officers of the clubs, show them that you want to be an active member of the community. From my experience some of them will suggest you to write endorsement letter to the admission office and if not, and you'll they will probably agree. I did the same with the clubs I was interested in and alumni. I know that they will start looking over the WL again next week - according to their blogs they are on delay of 1 week, so now it is the right time to stand out ! Good luck !

I applied round 3. I was interviewed after the decision deadline and my status went to complete about two weeks ago, but i still haven't heard anything from admissions. Are there any rounds 3 applicants in the same boat?

Just hoping the 2012 applicants could provide some advice. I'm looking to understand when I should expect to see the 2013 application questions released? When were they for the previous year?
Thanks!

Last year dates were around June 23th for the essay questions, and on July 18th the application went live.
I know that this year they have some delays on class of 2014 admission process, and I don't know if it would affect those dates.
Hope it helps. Thanks!

Looks like no one from WL heard back. Based on last years threads there was some movement in the week after R4 deposit date.
Back to waiting I guess..

Back to waiting I guess.. yea they seem to be a bit behind overall this year/cycle so i wouldn't expect for anyone to hear anything for at least another week or two.

Anyone got a feedback session yet? Hi A good freind of mind that applied on 3rd round was waitlisted after the interview. He had a feedback session that was practically a second chance interview. I believe that he is really close to get accepted and because of the delays and "squeaks" in the admission process (the head of admission team just gave birth and they are missing a professional officer) he will get answers just in a week or two.

what are you guys talking about re: 'feedback sessions'? i was not aware that waitlisted candidates were offered feedback? could someone clarify, or point me towards where they got this information? nothing in my waitlist letter said anything about a feedback session.
edit: yea, i just reread my waitlist letter and it doesn't mention anything about feedback anywhere. would appreciate more info on this.

Snipes, as I understand from previous years threads - some waitlisted candidates are invited for feedback sessions with adcom. And it looks like the chances of acceptance after getting a feedback are higher.
But, I am not sure if they are necessary for being accepted off the waitlist.

I'm an waitlisted AMBA candidate. Since classes start today, I assume they won't call me anymore, but couldn't Johnson have dropped me a ding email?

I guess this expalins the slience from Johnson. So I guess it could be until June 1st, when the 2nd deposit is due. Thoughts ?

Still no waitlist news huh? From Johnson's perspective, it seems like waiting until after the June 1st deadline to release any further decisions would make sense. Ugh.

Maybe some of us that get off wl can be housemates. Sucks looking for a place so late.

Ugh. june 1st is the 2nd deposit deadline? tbh, my thinking is that the adcom has been pretty swamped with work and it's probably taking them a bit to get everything straightened out. i still feel like there will be some movement at the end of this month...but maybe at that point they will just wait until june 1st and send out one big wave. sylverlee--are you implying you got off the WL? housing is the least of my concerns haha. that's one of those good problems imo.

Does anyone know when Orientation and Classes begin for the Class of 2014? Really hoping that Johnson starts calling and admitting Waitlisters soon! Seems like the Admissions Office is swamped.
