The deadline for supplemental materials is November 14 for Early Decision and January 16 for Regular Decision.

Cornell requires a Counselor Recommendation as part of your application. Counselor Recommendations may be submitted in any of the following ways:

(Preferred method) Through the Common Application recommender invitation tool under My Colleges > Cornell University > Recommenders and FERPA
(Second preferred method) Via approved online document delivery services. Cornell University Undergraduate Admissions will accept counselor evaluations sent via:
Parchment (including Naviance portals)
SCOIR
Slate.org
(Alternate method) If the above methods are not available, applicants may send transcripts by printing the form from your application account, providing it to your counselor to complete, and ensuring it is submitted by mail or by email (to support@admissions.cornell.edu)

Please use only one submission method. Do not send duplicate copies unless instructed to do so by an admissions representative.
