My 3rd recommendation was submitted by an ex-colleague just a few days ago.
Going by the admissions blog post last month, I believe we're still in consideration for R2.
"...if you have recommenders struggling to complete the form, you can tell them their final deadline is January 3rd. This gives them a few more weeks and possibly some planned time to write a great letter on your behalf."

guys, make sure you prioritize quality over quantity. Do not rush to meet this deadline if this will affect the quality of your recommendation. Besides, you can always send updates after any deadline.
Good luck everyone!

Is anyone here applying for Round 3 at Cornell? I know Round 3 used to be an acceptable round to apply in, but since they changed their deadlines this year to a 3-round process, I'm debating if it'd be worth it to apply.

Round 3 is still viable. Round 4 basically became rolling admissions with a hard deadline of April 30, so basically, there's an advantage to applying in March rather than April.

Biggest indicator is that there are still scholarship weekends for the first 3 rounds. You won't get in if you don't apply.

anyone have an idea of when they will start inviting for interviews for round 2?


I'd say unlikely they can send out invitations before the beginning of next year.

makes sense, thanks for the reply

I am a R2 applicant. I won't be available to interview until january 23rd or so. I know that I am getting ahead of myself by thinking I might receive an invite. If I do, will January 23rd be too late?

Hey guys just wanted to know, are there any Round 2 (Indian) applicants whose Application is still listed as 'Submitted' rather than 'Under Review'?
Oh and a Happy Belated New Year to everyone on this amazing forum!

Generally that makes no difference, but you should check with the adcom to make sure you didn't miss anything in your application.

Hey Shimarstar,

A very happy near year to you too!

Mine too shows submitted. I don't recommend contacting the adcom over this. I don't think that would leave a good impression. They are already busy with the applications.

Thanks,
Prodizy

So... 1 month to go till the R2 decision deadline yet no interview invites yet. I wonder if the Adcoms have enough time to interview the candidates. For R1 it seems interview invites got sent out within a week of the application deadline.

I wouldn't stress about it just yet. Based on the Johnson Admissions Blog ( https://www.johnson.cornell.edu/Full-Tim ... und-3.aspx) it appears as thought today (Jan 6) is the first day that the entire staff is on hand.

If you think of it from a process perspective - First they gotta print things got, ensure everything is there, update the status and then start reviewing. This would take at least 2-3 days.

I believe "Submit" -> "Under Review" means your document has been processed and is being reviewed. That's when you start to freak out. :-D

My application status shows "Incomplete" and has remained so for a very long time. Initially it was because of my recommendations and now because of my TOEFL official scores. I sent my TOEFL scores on 3rd December.

I Contacted the adcom team before holidays and they mentioned if I don't see my status change until 10th Jan, only then I should contact them again. Also, it takes them some time to process TOEFL scores as they are sent as paper documents and not online.

I just realized that the r1 deposit deadline is jan 8th. I guess they want to see how many r1 admits decide to enroll before giving r2 interviews. I guess we can expect invites next week.

Also keep the polar vortex in mind my friend. They are having temperature 25 degrees below zero. Things might be a bit slow at their end.

I see you are also from US. Are things as bad as written in the media?
