Does Cornell send out the results on the basis of the fields? I mean posters below are mostly in condensed matter, if somebody in hep-exp hasn't received an email, does it mean they will be rejected?

CME

Received e-mail to check application for official letter. Applied for Gravity theory and condensed matter theory. 3+ years of research experience (Soft CM experiment project for 3+ years, Gravity Theory for 2+ yrs, REU in Hard CM Theory this past summer)

hep-th

MS from Top 10 University with good grades. Excellent recommendations from two top profs in my field. Very disappointed at rejection.

Didn't want to live in Ithaca anyway...(solacement)

state school in new york, 3 years of undergrad research experience, 3 internships, 1 publication, top 1% of class... very disappointed

We regret to inform you that you were not admitted. While we understand you may wish to know the exact reason, we hope you will understand that our staff is not able to respond to questions regarding these decisions.

this is sad :(

Have a thesis MS in mechanical engineering from a top 10 school. No publications. Disappointed, was one of my top choices.

Brutal. Quoted at 15% admissions rate.

Finally rejected :-) 3.5 years of lab experience as manager, MD and MS pharmacology/toxicology. 3 publications by the end of this year.

8 straight rejections. 💔

LOL I am the same poster as below. Now I got this email following the rejection: 'Apologies, the decision email you received from Weill Cornell Graduate School was in error. At this time, the Pharmacology program has not yet made a decision regarding your application. Decisions can be expected within the next week.' It's fine I'm fine.
