Regarding the application to Cornell, is there an online portal where I could check my application status, and how often is it updated? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Absolutely, Cornell provides a way for you to check your application status online. After you submit your application, you will receive email instructions on how to set up your application status check account. This step could take a couple days to a week, especially during the peak application period. The email will include the necessary details to create your login credentials.
Once set up, you can use the online portal to monitor the status of your application, verify that all required application components have been received, and view your decision once it is available. As for how often it's updated, it varies and is not on a set schedule. It will largely depend on when Cornell's admissions office processes and updates their records. However, it's generally updated within a week of receiving new documents.
It's advisable to check your application status regularly, especially to confirm receipt of key documents. Apart from that, patience is key. If a few weeks have passed and a document has not been marked as received in your portal, you might want to reach out to the admissions office.
Best of luck with your application to Cornell!
