Are you undergraduates in US? I am Chinese senior student in US and received Wait-list....It looks like Cornell view people with US degree first, then they view students from Chinese school.

I deeply doubt about that because, I guess, they won't even give us Chinese undergraduates a shot!

Why are you so pessimistic? I think applicants from ZJU have a great chance, haha.
Previous Chinese students admitted include those from PKU, THU, SJTU, FDU, WHU, NKU.

Historical data is unconvincing as the number of applicants for MFE. has doubled this year and there is no doubt that the US. bachelor degree will stay in a positive position. Therefore ... you can get the picture right?
none of us are in the committee side. Be optimistic, dude.

I am not sure about their procedures, but i guess they do pool Chinese undergrads together for fairer comparison.

No surprise. Pedigree still matters... Zhejiang U, though comparable to the Top 2 in research, still lags behind in that aspect

I looked through Cornell's FE graduates' profiles on their websites. They admitted about 38 Chinese students out of 54. And a quarter of them graduated from universities in China. So keep your chin up.

Congrats. I was interviewed 20 days ago. You have a great chance to be admitted when you have a interview invitation. However, I didn't take the prerequistive courses for FE, so I was redirected to Applied OR.

Hey Ash, I'm also Singapore based applicants, you think they will make admission decision based on country pool?
Cong. maybe better withdraw the application to Cornell?

Why would he do that? I do not believe that you can truly make a well informed decision between the two programs without having gotten into both. If you are still pending for one of the programs you will subconsciously always lean towards the program you are already accepted into for you own peace of mind.
So I say, wait for all your decisions and then decide.
