Any domestic R3 applicants who got invited for an interview? Cornell seems to be way behind on processing apps this year.

I emailed and left a message, still no response. Status says Submitted,

A lot going around on the online status - I'll just say this. Checked mine a little over a week ago (R3 applicant) and it said Incomplete. I called the admissions office immediately and they said that wasn't the case, everything was fine and they'd make the amendment. Took a few days but it now says Under Review. Short story long, adcom seems to be jammed with applications, wouldn't rely solely on the online status, but definitely reach out with any issues.

Yeah, getting behind in R1 seems to have pushed everything back. Maybe that business week ranking, and the NYC tech campus gave the school a bit too much press, and they've had a huge spike in apps? That coupled with the new paperless process threw everything back. At least they're giving everyone the time they deserve for review, and aren't rushing to be finished by a deadline. Good luck all, the wait is worth it.

Application Status changed today to: "Complete - Your application is complete for final review by the selection committee. We will post your final decision or send an update by 9 a.m. Eastern time on the published notification date for your round." Did y'all who got accepted had your status changed to this as well?

I think earlier in the process someone was reporting 30%, who knows. Either way, it seems like they're building a pretty great class, and they'll give everyone a fair shot.
