So, every waitlisted people uploaded posts here are willing to accept Cornell's offer if you have a chance? What other offers in your hands? I got admission from one school, and the other school ranked similar to Cornell placed my name on their waitlist, so if they give me an offer I will probably go there and drop Cornell waitlist. How about you guys?

My undergrad was not in Computer Science, it was in Biology. However, I had a significant focus on bioinformatics (coursework, 2 summer internships, and a senior thesis) and I'd gotten a minor in CS / taken most of the basic core CS courses (Data Structures, Algorithms, etc.) as part of it. I had to do a one-way video interview which I felt like I botched but made it through and a brief technical assessment (randomized questions on a variety of topics; not too difficult if you've had any exposure to CS) because I didn't major in CS.

To the person who asked below: I received a phone call from one of my interviewers notifying me of my acceptance, and was told the official acceptance email will come later. I haven't gotten anything yet, so I wouldn't worry! And my acceptance was a special case I believe, my research happened to fit extremely well with one of the faculty members. Best of luck!
