YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

I'm in!

Awesome to hear ryguy.

With the lack of decisions for some...it doesnt sound like Cornell learned their lesson last year. Maybe a latter decision date or more employees would help.

Thanks for the support guys. :oops: This has been a VERY long road for me (I'll probably write a more detailed post later on). As many folks on here know, this is my second time going through the application process (although this is my first time applying to Cornell) after a tragic last year where I received 3 waitlists (CBS, NYU, UCLA) and turned down my offer at USC. This totally justifies the whole reapp process. For those that got WL'd and dinged, keep your chin up guys and stay positive. I'm proof that you shouldn't give up and it ain't over til it's over. I *only* scored 680 on the GMAT and went to a no-name state school in Cali. There is plenty of green pasture out there for all of us.

Woke up at 6am today to check my status.. and just as I suspected, I got waitlisted... It has been a fun ride so far, although I rarely post on these forums, I browse them everyday to keep my day going. Congrats to everyone who got in, and as for me, my emotions has been going up and down like a roller coaster ride, and now its at the end of road. My feelings are just like the weather today in LA... gloomy and rainy. I dont know if any of us waitlisted are going to have a chance this year with the terrific applicant pool this year... I just want to say thank you all for keeping me going the past 2 months. I think imma go write a book about the whole process now (I cant contain my emotions....) or maybe just start a blog :lol:

Again, congrats to all those who made it!

Got invited to interview for the Park Fellowship! Based on previous year's threads, looks like about 125 ppl get invited for 25 fellowships. Don't like my chances there! :?

But, hopefully this means some sort of partial scholarship if I'm not one of those lucky 25 :-D

Congrats to the admits!!

Sorry to the waitlisters and dings, hopefully one of your top choices come through for you. Cornell probably just thought u were to good for them and that you wouldn't matriculate :-D I also would encourage all waitlisters to read the wise words of solaris on the last page, fairly encouraging admit rate for R1 waitlisters. Good luck all.

Congrats to all the admits!

For those who got waitlisted, I encourage you to update the office, reiterate your interest and keep on it. I worked my way off the waitlist last year.

All the Johnson students have gone home for the semester, and I've seen the admissions people working quite late the last week. Glad to hear they're getting out the decisions, and sorry to all those who were kept waiting too long.

Sorry to hear that. Keep chugging, and you will get the admit at your other choices- you are applying to some stellar programs.

Congrats to everyone who got admits as well!
