Question about Cornell / Johnson

Hi! Has anyone heard back from Cornell re waitlists yet ? We are past the notification for R3 so expect there should be some communication but it has been radio silence so far.

anon17117 Likes Earned: 24 same here, have not received any updates from them. but I also heard that this year they have 20% application number increase, so seems like this year is pretty competitive for Cornell. (2)

anon16138 Likes Earned: 53 I don’t think they are responding to anyone yet bc I got an update this morning at 10:30 a.m. EDT saying that they are spending from today reviewing the final status of our R3 applications until May 31st. (3)

anon16138 Likes Earned: 53 They said if you completed an interview before May 24th, then you will receive a guaranteed decision before May 31st. If you get an interview after May 24th, then you are NOT guaranteed a decision by May 31st and will receive one in early June. (5)

anon79966 Likes Earned: 20 Hi anon16138, this is true for Waitlisted candidates too right ? I interviewed all the way back in November and have been waiting for waitlist movement since December. (2)

anon16138 Likes Earned: 53 I would probably wait after May 31st for waitlist movement, given that is the end of R3 and they probably will ask for deposits within two weeks of that date I assume if I am accepted, so maybe by June 15th they know how many people will join the school and then look at waitlists?

anon79966 Likes Earned: 20 Yesterday’s webinar didn’t give any additional info either. It continues to be the same story of waiting without an end date. (2)

anon98962 Likes Earned: 28 R2 admit (and committed) here - 2nd deposit deadline for committed students is June 12th. Hope that info helps! (1)

anon79966 Likes Earned: 20 Any new updates ? (0)

anon13835 Likes Earned: 5 R2, same boat on the waitlist, I also assume they will see how the committed students look like after Jun 14 and then go back to see if they want anyone from the waitlist? (1)

anon17117 Likes Earned: 24 I emailed the admissions team about the possible update date for the waitlisted candidates, they responded to directly email the MBA waitlist team, which I did, but have not heard anything from them. For the international candidates it's pretty complicated to receive an update closer to program start date. (1)

anon16742 Likes Earned: 17 I spoke to Eddie (Executive Director of Admissions) and this year was extremely competitive and they've more or less already gotten their cohort finalized and there is a low chance they will review waitlist (2)

anon79966 Likes Earned: 20 6 months of wait, regular follow ups etc. and it all turns out for nothing. (2)

anon13835 Likes Earned: 5 Did anyone get their reply after sending updates? I got once after sending my action plan but none for the first update (1)

anon79966 Likes Earned: 20 I haven’t received any confirmation of updates received from adcoms since last week. Is there any realistic chance left for this year ? (0)

anon34346 Likes Earned: 19 realistically speaking, even if there will be a movement in waitlist, they will prioritize locals who don't need many paperwork and logistics to attend. hope everyone has a backup plan. (1)

anon13835 Likes Earned: 5 Guys, I was admitted from waitlist this week. Keep spirits high as they still admit people on the waitlist and keep engaged with the school. Good luck y'all! (1)

anon79966 Likes Earned: 20 Hey! Congrats on your admit! Are you an international candidate or from US ? (0)

ywoasis Likes Earned: 5 thx! I'm an international student. They definitely understand the need to leave time for international students on the waitlist to apply for visas. (1)

anon79966 Likes Earned: 20 Thanks. This does give hope, but also aware it’s quite late already and progressive with each passing day. Hoping to see you on campus if it converts for me, Cornell is my absolute first choice. (1)
