2023-2024 Weill Cornell

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
For those who got in last year and sent a post-II update, when did you send it in relation to your interview? I interviewed in the middle of December. When should I send a post-II update? I have a pub going to a high impact journal (3rd author) that'll be submitted within the next few weeks and a first author paper that'll most likely get accepted/published in 1.5-2 months. I want to update them regarding this but I fear if I send my update too late that they will already have made their decision about me.

Is it common for interviewers to give out their emails for thank you notes? Mine did not lol. I figured I would just send the thank you notes to the admissions email and have them relay.

One of mine gave theirs to me bc they were excited to ask me more about one of my ECs the other didn't

Do we know when the last IIs are going out?

Also, would anyone recommend writing a letter of intent to Weill if I've heard nothing after my October update letter?

A letter of intent before you even interview is a little desperate. Play hard to get. Send like a letter of like “maybe I’ll accept the interview if you send it…maybe I won’t…idk.”

I've seen lots of posts about update letters but nothing really relating to sending them post-interview... anyone have any information about them? Since admissions isn't rolling, I figured it may be helpful as decisions maybe haven't been made yet. Thanks!

I sent my post-II update letter to [email protected] and received confirmation soon after

Anyone know how formal the Cornell Wednesdays are?
 
If this is for all interviewees then there's probably going to be like hundreds of us right so I imagine you can maybe probably wear whatever you want

They usually are scheduling either the week post-invite or the next week, it's a quick turnaround
 
Anyone know how receptive Cornell is to letters of interest/intent?

I don't know... I sent an update and then a letter of interest with some small updated. Really hoping to get an II in these last waves, I got kinda hyped when I did not catch the R wave back in December lol..
