I don’t know if I could’ve done more. I probably could’ve but if I had I would’ve hurt either physical or mental health

#

Honestly opposite

proven current
ripe flame
#

Got my first rejection and my heart Calmed. Dunno why maybe I’m just that crazy

#

I’m so sorry about caltech

proven current
#

caltech did seem like kind of a crapshoot (but tbh i think all these top schools are always crapshoots to some degree)

ripe flame
#

Yeah I agree

minor sandal
#

agreed

#

i got 1 good decision but im nervous that it was just luck and the rest of the decisions i care more about are gonna screw me over hard

ancient mesa
#

Yea feel like it’s also a major numbers game too

ripe flame
#

I dunno I rly hope I can somehow make it. I want to be in I want to be happy I want to have things to look forward to

#

i mean for me it’s. that I got rejected from my financially feasible safety troll now I have to get into a t50 with good fin aid or I’m fucked

#

Yea but as long as we make it to college we’re all gonna be fine and we’ll succeed

ancient mesa

for some reason, i always viewed MIT for example as potentially doable, but harvard just seems impossible

ripe flame

marsh token
ripe flame
#

Someone take it down a notch

ancient mesa
#

Idk didn’t apply to MIT so I don’t have to worry lmaoo

marsh token
#

i got rejected MIT ea šŸ˜Ž

ripe flame
#

Yale feels impossible to me nowadays

proven current
#

harvard would not be more selective than MIT, but for some reason the name brand and the prestige around the school makes it seem like this sort of unachievable utopia

ancient mesa
#

I also feel like I’ve grown up around Princeton my whole life so it’s taken away the ā€œfantasyā€ perspective and just reminded me it’s a place that some people do get into

proven current
#

also probably my perception is skewed bc idk anyone from my school or neighboring school that got into harvard, but quite a few kids throughout past years got into MIT

ripe flame
#

Harvard? Columbia? Princeton? shrug ā€œwe are pleased to offer you admissionā€ or DADADADUNDADANDADUNDADUN or huge tiger

#

but Yale? I can’t imagine it at all

ancient mesa
#

Tiger goes hard

ripe flame
#

No way my name lives on a Yale acceptance letter

marsh token
proven current
#

princeton tiger does go hard

ancient mesa
#

Yea idk anyone that’s gone to Yale tbh

I’d love to be a Princeton tiger

ripe flame

Fuck but my interview was so mid

proven current
#

i think princeton is one for me, followed by MIT

ripe flame

I applied to a bunch of top schools, I feel like t50-t30 is very feasible for me but t20 feels impossible to break for some reason

proven current

i mean based on what i see online but obv thats probably skewed

#

i do think they send more likelies compared to other schools though

ancient mesa
ripe flame
#

idk I think my Princeton supps were great but I flubbed the interview

#

Yale supps were so mid, totally ass

#

Harvard supp was lowkey brilliant but might be too cliche

proven current
#

honestly think brown and upenn supps were nothing particularly special

#

esp brown i feel like my answers were super generic

marsh token
#

ngl, my brown essays were kinda mid compared to the rest...

ripe flame
#

Columbia supps were. It was fine except for my lists

proven current
#

listen if all our brown supps were mid thats a good thing lmao

fossil osprey

Mine were good I think

so

my name is showing demonstrated interest for my beloved brown

#

My demonstrated interest for rice is eating it with every meal until I get my acceptance letter

proven current
#

i never looked into rice actually, are they mainly known for engineering?

marsh token
#

i eat rice daily so those mfers better let me in

ripe flame
#

ugh I dunno panicking isn’t getting me any closer to Ivy day

ancient mesa
ripe flame
#

The seconds crawl by like hours

ancient mesa
#

I think especially mechanical engineering is rlly good there

proven current

interesting i see

marsh token

me, non-stem who applied to rice šŸ˜Ž

ancient mesa

Idk tho I’m doing bio and art so I wouldn’t know too much

me, stem major who eats rice

ancient mesa
marsh token
#

imagine being a stem major you must be so cool and awesome and talented and funny and nice and

ancient mesa
#

My house is eternally illuminated by the rice cooker light

marsh token
#

(i have nothing but respect for STEM majors. i could never.)

proven current
#

tbh i don't think i could do humanities majors

#

especially writing intensive ones

marsh token
#

i love social sciences!!!!!!! wooooo!!!

ripe flame
#

i rly enjoy both stem and humanities

#

ig that’s why I’m doing a bio focused math related humanities dense major

proven current
#

writing essays drains my mental energy so fast, no shot i could succeed in an english major; although i do like social sciences big fan of psych and econ

ripe flame
#

highkey my fave thing abt Princeton

#

is the senior thesis

#

I rly wanna write it

proven current
#

yeah i think that would be super cool

marsh token
#

its a little intimidating but also cool to me

ancient mesa
#

Frrrr tho especially if you do a research based thesis

ripe flame
#

fuck I want to. I want to sit in the little forest area behind that one dining hall and scribble notes for my senior thesis as I laugh with my friends

proven current
#

i was trying to find what makes princeton unique prior to my interview, and the one thing that i kept seeing that i found hilarious was something amongst the lines of: "no matter what institution you go to, princeton has more money. they always have more money. any book you want, any study abroad, they will pay for it"

ripe flame
#

i want to blink in shock at alumni as they come flooding through campus in bright orange

#

i want to publish a slice-of-life article for Princeton’s website for another incoming student to read and comfort themself with

ancient mesa
#

My Columbia interview happened at Princeton lmaooo

ripe flame
#

fr?? BAHAHAHAHA

ancient mesa
#

Interviewer legit wearing a Princeton hoodie

ripe flame
#

hilarious

ancient mesa
#

I felt like I was gonna get jumped by all the students in Princeton merch around me while I was preaching about how great Columbia was lmaooo

ripe flame
#

oh yea I guess that would make me rly nervous

ancient mesa
marsh token
#

i wish i lived close to a t20 or t50 or t100 school

#

closest one is 3 hrs away

ancient mesa
#

Wow did you at least get to visit or tour them?

minor sandal
ripe flame
marsh token
ripe flame
#

but like. I think that might just be bc of prestige? I’d rly have to revisit if I got into Columbia and had another option

marsh token
#

guys you will NEVER GUESS what school is at the top of my rankings!!!

proven current
#

yale?

ancient mesa
proven current
#

oh wait no it has to be princeton!

ripe flame
marsh token
#

sorry guys its actually northeastern

#

AYYYY

ripe flame
#

HAHAHA I TOLD YOU

ripe flame
proven current
#

northeastern is the best school in boston

ripe flame
#

expecting to be rejected by northeastern and waitlisted by Harvard is a rly weird feeling

marsh token
#

still cant believe those mf’ers at northeastern deferred me.. i was hoping for an acceptance 😭

proven current
#

i think thats completely reasonable considering northeastern is much more selective than harvard

ancient mesa
#

Do you guys know how many people actually get accepted from waitlists for t10’s?

proven current
#

i think its very dependent on the school

fossil osprey
#

some schools dont

#

give that data

#

like UChicago

ripe flame
#

Yeah but it’s easiest to find out there

ancient mesa
marsh token
#

princeton

proven current
#

and also the waitlist is not ranked, so they may try to fill their niche; for example if they accepted 1 guy from north dakota and he goes somewhere else and they want to boast that they have students from all 50 states, they may just accept the north dakota waitlist

ripe flame
ripe flame
proven current
marsh token
#

harvard doesnt release that info, ima check yale and brown rq

#

cuz now im curious

#

WTF YALE

ripe flame
#

Yeah Yale waitlist data depresses

proven current
#

well yale also has a higher yield rate than princeton right

ripe flame
#

Yeah it does

marsh token
#

fair but still

ripe flame
#

I think

marsh token
#

9 hurts to see

#

(still more than tulane!!!!!)

ripe flame
#

Yeah it. Does

proven current
#

caltech's was like 0 over the last two years šŸ’€

Swarthmore’s is 0 past two years

marsh token
#

NOOO BROWN

proven current
#

what would you do if you got waitlisted from your top choice

marsh token
#

i will cry.

proven current
#

but accepeted to like 3rd choice

ripe flame
#

LAUGH SCREAM CRY GET ICE CREAM

ancient mesa
#

marsh token
#

ripe flame
#

ABSOLUTELY GO TO THIRD CHOICRNWHST THE FUCK

ancient mesa
#

Prepare to accept but maybe wait

ripe flame
#

Nah wouldn’t even accept place on WL of first choice

marsh token
#

dartmouth is my 3rd choice so i aint complaining

ripe flame
#

Fuck them first choice is a bad partner in this scenario

#

Edging me like this

ancient mesa
#

Tbh yea Princeton is my 3rd choice so heck yeah

#

If like any one of the ivies accept me I’m packing my bags tbh

ripe flame
#

Heehee let me go to swarthmore or Princeton I’ll sit in the beautiful woods nearby and delight in fucking Yale over with my over the moon joy

#

If any. School accepts me I’m packing my bags lmfao

#

I need to go to college period I don’t know what I’d do if I had to gap year

marsh token
#

i dont think i could ever hate brown my beloved, but i would be able to move on if i got into any of my top 5

ripe flame
#

Yale has become complicated due to ppl I know going there so Yale can take the L honestly

#

Would take any school in my top 7 with happiness and glee

marsh token
#

i have the advantage of coming from a school that has sent one person to a t20 ever

ancient mesa
#

BRUH

marsh token
#

the 1 person going to princeton

ancient mesa
marsh token
#

yeah but tbh im horrified of uchicago

"where fun goes to die" i want to have fun

ripe flame
#

Charls what why did you apply

#

If you don’t wanna go

marsh token
#

i do wanna go

#

i just wanna go to other colleges more

ripe flame
#

Just not as much as brown? Okay fair

#

I mean same

marsh token
#

i would've went ed to brown if my parents let me

ripe flame
#

oh they didn’t let you?

marsh token
#

nope

ancient mesa
#

When the neighboring school is cracked with feeding into t20s and so far my school has none 🄲

marsh token
#

they weren't committed to sending me out of state

#

but now they are

ripe flame
#

hmm I see

#

idk I don’t regret my REA

marsh token
#

i almost REA'd yale but 3 of my schools required you to apply EA for scholarships so i took the safe route

ripe flame
#

I’m glad I threw my hat in the ring

ancient mesa
ripe flame
#

Oh Lynx you REA’d Yale? How’d that go

ancient mesa
#

Rejected

#

Dreams crushed

#

I swear to god the 17th will start my hero origin story

ancient mesa
marsh token
#

also unrelated but about how we were discussing waitlists earlier, dartmouth took nobody off the waitlist last year

ripe flame
#

I just need good news on the seventeenth

#

I’d be rly happy to go to any of my schools releasing on the 17th

proven current

ripe flame
ancient mesa
#

So waitlist for them is equivalent to ā€œwe liked you, but give up on your dreams lolā€

marsh token
#

yep

ripe flame
#

schools shouldn’t keep such huge waitlists

#

Waitlist like 1/4th of ur class size at most

ancient mesa
#

For real tho

marsh token
#

bruh i decided "oh im gonna look at a non-ivy t20 and see how it compares"

ripe flame
#

Ig unless you have shit yield

marsh token
#

thanks rice

ripe flame
#

But 80 percent yield like HYP does not need to have such huge waitlists

ripe flame
#

That’s evil what

marsh token
#

yeahh it sucks

#

waitlists seem near useless

#

just a "you weren't good enough but don't worry! we kinda liked you"

#

its so cruel

plush niche
#

yale has an internally ranked waitlsit

polar halo
#

me after cutting off all social interaction to my brain only to get rejected by the ivys and yield protected by my safeties

marsh token
#

so true

royal lava
#

My friend got off the waitlist and is at Dartmouth now

upbeat scroll
#

I know a guy who got off the waitlist at Dartmouth too

ripe flame
#

Oh wait what

#

Huh

#

Charls was pulling from CDS so those are numbers they themselves published

limber vine
#

<5%. they’ve openly said they defer fewer applicants than they accept

#

deferral means your application vote was a tie, nomally 2-2 votes

#

some aos think u rlly have wha it takes they just need to compare against rd pool

#

stanford defer genuinely means ā€˜we wanna see how u stand against the other cracked applicants’

ripe flame
#

I think if you added together Yale admits and defers in REA this year you’d get a full class

royal lava
#

tbh i wouldnt be surprised quentin

#

no cause this dude was so funny

#

he committed to ut austin

#

then got off ucla waitlist and committed

#

then got off dartmouth waitlisted and committed for the 3rd time

ripe flame
#

wtf that’s crazy

marsh token
#

so i just went off that

#

my bad

royal lava

why theyre ... lying

hello my #1

no

#

going from A's to B's wont get u rescinded

#

im assuming thats equivalent to ur scenario

#

uhh i dont really know how that would equate to the US system but i think u should be fine

#

worst case scenario they want to meet and talk with you, but u just explain what happened and you'll be fine

#

yes

#

obviously im not an AO so i cant guarantee, but ive heard abt other people going thru the same thing and they werent rescinded

#

yes

#

im like 99.99% confident ur fine

upbeat scroll
#

rescinded from uc davis?

lime onyx
upbeat scroll
#

you didnt get in princeton yet right

#

have you tried explaining your situation to your AO? not much you can do besides that

elder zinc
#

You wont get rescinded. Those only happen in VERY extreme cases, usually not academic (ie. sexual assault, racism, legal issues, etc.) dont stress

#

Decisions have already been made, they’re not gonna change at this point

#

Yes

#

stop worrying about your academics for a minute and focus on your family

#

that shit comes first

#

always

#

no matter what institution

I'm probably ending this term with a B-, B, B+, A-, A, A when i usually have A's and A-'s

if its like A-D obviously thats more concerning

stray mauve

ok bc ive gotten lazy asf and i feel like im the only one lol

elder zinc

youre definitely not the only one

senioritis is a very real thing lmao

but i cant fully

Cuz it’s been years since my grades were this bad

because i haven’t gotten into a ā€œdream schoolā€ yet

i’m on the verge of dropping 1 IB grade in 3 classes lmao

yikes

#

Can you pull up

swift hazel
#

well

#

one of them is cuz the teacher went on sabbatical

candid geode

just do well on your exams

you’re fine

swift hazel
ripe flame
#

yea I had maybe

candid geode
#

yikes

#

HL math be like

ripe flame
#

2 B+ that could’ve been a A- if I worked harder

candid geode
#

I’m glad my school only offers SL

ripe flame
#

And an A- that could’ve been a A if I worked harder

shut kestrel
#

damnn i was calculating financial aid estimator for funsies and they give u so much aid 😭

swift hazel
#

nah HL was fine cuz my teacher had 33 years of teaching exp, versus this new guy who is teaching like his 2nd year šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€

swift hazel
#

it’s fine there’s still time

ripe flame
#

no there isn’t

#

my school runs on trimester so we just submitted grades for second term last week

#

dropped my GPA .03 points on 4.0 scale

#

and I’m not taking classes next term so lmfao

#

but I just don’t care like there’s no way .03 on 4.0 or .05 on our scale is gonna hurt me that much

candid geode
#

but i think i like her better than the old teacher

ripe flame
#

idk man I don’t think at this point unless u have a crazy grade drop it’ll matter

#

Like even in your case they might email you and be like ā€œhey watch ur gradesā€ but it won’t decide ur decision

swift hazel
swift hazel
#

then as caly said probably just do well on IB exams

Dear Mr ________ (removed for anonymity)

I am writing this email to inform you that after our initial review of your application, you have been designated as an unlikely candidate for admission.

Please do not take this as an indication of your abilities or of your potential, as we are sure you will go on to achieve many great things in your life.

Every year, our admissions office reaches out to approximately half of our applicant pool around 2 weeks before the decision date to inform them early of their decision as having been rejected. We do so to allow them to take the maximum time to decide on what to do for their undergraduate studies.

I would like to once again thank you for your interest in Princeton University, as well as for the time you put into your application. Let this decision not be a reflection of your merits as an applicant, but rather of the quality of our applicant pool this year.

We wish you the very best.

Thanks and Regards,
Princeton’s Admissions Office

Well that person is on this server

it was. Mm tarunblaireux? Something like that

#

So you could ask them

upbeat scroll
#

yeah they were here

#

that was the only one i saw

#

which honestly makes me think it might have been fake LMAO

#

like it is weird only 1 a2cer or person i know irl got it

ripe flame
#

Princeton likely?

upbeat scroll
#

yeah

upbeat scroll
#

you would think there would have been others

pallid notch
#

Yeah, but maybe it was true since all likely letters are sent by or before today.

upbeat scroll
#

what makes you think that though

#

idk

#

it was sooo early too

plush niche
#

yeah it was in like january right

upbeat scroll
#

yeah it was

plush niche
#

idt committee meets in jan

upbeat scroll
#

unless they do it rolling idk

#

i assumed they sent them all out at once

ripe flame
#

i hadn’t assumed that

#

cuz like that’d mean ppl who get reviewed later don’t get likelies

#

which seems wrong

plush niche
#

princeton doesn't even historically do likelies (except athletes I think) so idk

ripe flame
#

I dunno I didn’t doubt it cuz what’s the point yknow? Either it’s true or it’s false but the chance that it ends up mattering to me is so low

upbeat scroll
#

ive actually never seen a princeton likely yeah but i haven't been super tapped into the admissions process in other years

ripe flame
#

I’ve been 0 percent tapped into admit process previous years

upbeat scroll
#

me too basically yeah

ripe flame
#

Last year I asked a senior ā€œwhat’s Ivy dayā€

upbeat scroll
#

but ive watched like old youtube videos/seen old a2c posts

#

and ive never seen any others about a princeton likely

#

i had no idea where i was applying until this summer LMAO

ripe flame
#

i had an idea last spring

#

this time last year actually

#

i think brown was my top choice at the time

royal lava
#

and sometimes internationals

upbeat scroll
#

oh really do you know

#

hmmm

#

i think they were intl

#

idr though

#

idk reading the comments this does seem legit

#

and they are intl seeking aid so maybe that’s why Princeton felt the need to do a likely

#

they’re from India

indigo garden
#

university isnt even capitalized 😭

upbeat scroll
#

omg

ripe flame
#

You guys 😭 please

upbeat scroll
#

they also posted a chanceme after getting the likely??

#

im gonna feel bad if this is actually a future classmate of mine 😭

ripe flame
#

okay the chance me is weird

#

but like why do u guys care 😭😭😭

upbeat scroll
#

they want to know if they can still get a likely!!! i get it idk

ripe flame
#

cuz 2wks off from admit date p much

#

!ivyday

#

yeah so why would they send any more likelies

upbeat scroll
#

yeah probably true

#

i wonder if they sent any at all though

#

it is weird that this seems like the only likely

plush niche
#

yeah this is weird

#

also

#

completed preliminary review

#

don't you need to go through like

#

actual committee

#

to get a likely

ripe flame
#

actually on Princeton website that likelies don’t come after March 15

ripe flame
#

Cuz u have to be admitted
