GPA is grad. Rejected at 4 schools before this. SO happy!

So excited! My first update (0r/1a/7p).

almost all of them are rejected. Is it worth trying next year? cannot sleep at all.

4a/1r/4p

Said lack of funding and refer to apply for MFS, not surprising since I am an international student and it is hard to get funding. I asked if I could self fund myself but they said no, only funds come from organizations. I did not hold a food science bacc degree and probably that is another reason to reject.

No interview. Full financial support.

TTPB: I spoke to a POI at Cornell last week and he told me that I would hear back this week. However, seeing as it's already Friday, it's possible that's changed. I would tentatively expect to hear today, if not early next week. Best of luck!

TTPB: I haven't yet, but I would assume that we will hear either today or early next week, as statistically (according to this website), they send out all their rejections and acceptances right around this time.

This is my top choice!! If you arent going to accept their offer please let them know asap!!!!

Has anyone heard anything from Cornell? I expected them to send out decisions this week.

Not at all surprised! Applied just as a one-shot since a friend studies there. However, I know I'm better off with a more diversified crew. Congrats to the admitted kids!

GPA 9.03/10.00 from a premier Indian Institute, Participation and a Gold in iGEM, Masters Thesis at Max Planck. No GREs, Good TOEFL scores. First and the only acceptance until now after a long list and time period of rejections. Best wishes for the waitlisted and/or rejected ones. Dont loose hope. Something good will happen :). Happy Valentine's to all. And to the selected ones, see you soon!

Undergrad GPA 3.7 (after WES conversion). MSc from the Roslin Insitute, University of Edinburgh, UK (fully funded Scholarship). Contacted POI before submission of application and had an informal chat with him. Was Invited to official interview (online, zoom) mid December. Offer came as a pleasant surprise as it was the only school I applied to. No pubs yet, but two papers in preparation. International conference attendance too. Best wishes!
