[tough eagle]

same

my ego was too inflated then

[bleak ridge]

I didn’t have a choice because I didn’t really have any other EA schools in mind and only had time for 1 school

I shall make up for it in RD

https://tenor.com/view/pso-gif-6849451206291309851

[cunning vortex]

Are you related to the other billert in any way

[frank pond]

yes we know each other irl

[rose lava]

the worst they can do is reject you and then you have the entire rest of the application season, you'll be fine

[white hull]

The best way to calm down a senior: "Don't worry, you still have the rest of the application season"

[surreal cosmos]

so true but i'm just hyperfixated on this decision rn lol

[frank pond]

btw my brain is fried rn because i just took my diffeq final but when they say 12.5% of the class of 2027 is legacies, how close is that to the admit rate

[rose lava]

no i'm being so real 💀

i didn't get into any of my T20s EA

[surreal cosmos]

[tiny summit]

do we get free hoodies when we all inevitably get accepted\

except this mf muffin hamster

tf did muffin hamster do 😭

[tiny summit]

Tony the Tiger helped cause the American obesity epidemic

[late stream]

idt someone like you can get into princeton...

[white hull]

What if I invented Tony the Tiger

And obesity

Can creating obesity be an EC

[tiny summit]

Unfortunately, it might not seem personal enough

Unless you are also obese

[tough eagle]

i doubt anyone can here but billert

[tiny summit]

im a lock tbh

[white hull]

I never saw an obese person before I was born

Clearly not a coincidence

[late stream]

[tough eagle]

nuh uh

[white hull]

I think billert is legacy

[frank pond]

how tf do I have fans

[white hull]

Right

[late stream]

hes literally comp 😭

[tiny summit]

my great grandfather

was the prince of arabia

does that count as legacy

because yk

prince

princeton

[late stream]

wtf same

r we related?!q

[tiny summit]

who tf r u

[white hull]

And I myself am a Nigerian prince

Which means I've already been accepted

[late stream]

your a scammer!!!

[tiny summit]

i have a confession to make

i kissed my admission officer

she's in my dms rn

i think im a lock

perhaps more than billert

[white hull]

someone make this into a speech bubble meme

My biggest EC is causing 2 seperate wars in the Middle East

[white hull]

Go to Yale then

[tiny summit]

CHILL

Princeton is my dream school

Billbert is at princeton after all

[wet pilot]

I would count this as a legacy if I were an admissions officer. I'd aassume you had a ton of money and the name recognition could be good for the school

[white hull]

No I was just saying

You could be in good company

Both George Bushes went to Yale

[tiny summit]

nah im a tiger

pure blooded tiger

when i was born, they ran a dna test on me

and all they found

was tiger dna

[white hull]

This vexes me

This still implies that your mom was also a tiger

[cosmic solar]

glazing is wild

[rose lava]

S tier glaze 💀💀💀

My interview (RD) is tomorrow. My interviewer graduated from Princeton in the early 80's and appears to have little to no social media footprint.

[tiny summit]

atp it holds 0 admissions value

wouldnt sweat it at all

perhaps theyre an eating club alumni?

check that out

[wet pilot]

Yeah, I'm not too worried, because I've already done a shit ton of interviews for other applications, but I'd still like a heads up.

ya ask them ab eating club

my guy talked ab his for like 10 mins

[wet pilot]

They are coming to the Starbucks near my school between class ending and a basketball game lol. I have not yet had to do an interview in a public place

Should be fun

[frank pond]

Yes my interviewer told me eating clubs were a scam

He quit his mid year

[surreal cosmos]

mine seemed lowkey indifferent to his idk but he still had a lot to say

[tiny summit]

mine still lives in princeton

[white hull]

What on earth is an eating club

[tiny summit]

he seems dedicated to the school

a club for eating

basically

[bleak ridge]

10k per year club with eating areas

[tiny summit]

quite literally

[bleak ridge]

For social connections

[surreal cosmos]

mine literally was my neighbor so that was funny

[bleak ridge]

lmfao

[frank pond]

Finaid increases during junior and senior year to allow aided students to go to eating clubs

[bleak ridge]

Based fin aid department

But idc about eating clubs unless I get in

Then I’d put thought into it

[wet pilot]

Like a fraternity or sorority but no greek letters

[rose lava]

hello guys

i am gonna be watching ur channel from now on 👀

[tough eagle]

hello

big brotherandon is watching

[tough eagle]

i could smell my tears of rejection already

gaddamn

[cunning vortex]

True

[tough eagle]

can being obese be an EC

[glass sigil]

whats the rea acceptance rate adjusting for recruited athletes

and legacy

[versed charm]

hard to say

[lapis hill]

honestly i'd say the same as rd

[nova bough]

acc to https://paw.princeton.edu/, "Recruited athletes comprise 16.2 percent of the class, children of alumni 14.1 percent, and international students 10.8 percent"

rea acc is about 15 compared to rd's 6

[full crane]

when did u apply?

ik it doesn't count

[nova bough]

do the interviews matter? unless you crash and burn, how much do you think theyre considered in ur app

[rose lava]

not that heavily compared to other data

[surreal cosmos]

oh dang this is more than i thought

[rose lava]

you'll be fine

[rose lava]

that's bc of the recruited athletes, donor, and legacy tho tbh

[nova bough]

so its prob around the same as rd

[surreal cosmos]

yeah no for sure but i still expected lower lol

[dusty meteor]

Can you put the link exactly for the statistics and not a general website

[frank pond]

They definitely have statistics for the class of 2027 somewhere

[nova bough]

https://paw.princeton.edu/article/large-rise-student-yield#:~:text=Close to half the class,and international students 10.8 percent.

[frank pond]

on the admissions website I think

[nova bough]

yeah sry i just skimmed ggl

[dusty meteor]

Thanks ! 🙏

[nova bough]

prob but no way theyd put legacy % right onto their main site

[tiny summit]

okay so if we find the number of people who get into rea as a proportion of the total class

and assume all recruits and legacy get in rea

we have our adjusted acceptance rate

[nova bough]

but its 2019 data

[tiny summit]

yes

but its fair to assume

[nova bough]

27,290 total applicatns for 2019

[tiny summit]

that rea practices didnt change much from 2019 to 2023

[frank pond]

the decision will be out in like 71 hours just be patient lol

[tiny summit]

billert ur a lock

[hidden breach]

ong he is

[nova bough]

ok so in 2019 1,895 kids were accepted total

[short hatch]

yall can go D1 for being world class glazers🫡

but true he gettin in

[tiny summit]

is that a hook

Sheesh

[tough eagle]

2 fucking days dawg

[topaz glacier]

i applied to harvard REA, but i really regret it 🥲

[cunning vortex]

3 min ago and it would have been 2 days 22 hrs and 22min

[bleak ridge]

Berkeley had a way like that?

[oak dove]

yea apparently if applicants tried to log in to like Calnet they saw diff things

[low crow]

What’s this whole thing about a tiger on the letter head if u get accepted, and no Tiger on the letter if u get def/rejected…any1 got a sample letter?

[short hatch]

yeah on the decisions letter

[bleak ridge]

Basically on the decision before reading shit if you see a tiger you got in

On the letter itself

If no letter no acceptance

[short hatch]

im on my knees tryna see a tiger maul me on the decision letter

[bleak ridge]

Same broski

[bleak ridge]

Need that tiger to come face to face with me

[lapis hill]

here's the difference

[nova bough]

alright so i got nervous and want to figure out how this works to calm down, can someone check my math? I used these sites: https://toptieradmissions.com/resources/college-acceptance-rates/princeton-admissions-stats-acceptance-rates/ and https://paw.princeton.edu/article/large-rise-student-yield#:~:text=Close to half the class,and international students 10.8 percent. for the stats...so if athlete recuition is about 16.2 %and alumni children are about 14.1 % of the acc class, then there were about a total of about 394 total students who were either athletes or legacy who applied rea and got in. To simplify things, I'm gonna assume they got in bc of their legacy/altheticism, which I know isn't true but for the sake of the equation, we can just remove them from the equation so the rea stat of 767 acc/3850 applicants becomes 373/3456, which is about 11%...(thats assuming everyone who applied rea became part of the class) so,

we have an 11% acc chance rea, crudely accounting for legacy and athlete recruit?

[lapis hill]

you have to remove a good chunk of that for questbridge

[bleak ridge]

Maybe but there are more competitive applicants in REA

also yeah questbridge

[lapis hill]

last year was 110

maybe more this year

[nova bough]

shoot how does questbridge pan into this

[lapis hill]

considering colleges accepted 500 more matches this year

mit made up for 1/8 of the increase

[short hatch]

also

[nova bough]

this is for 2019 cause that was when the ahtlete and legacy data was availible

[lapis hill]

jumping from ~10 to ~50

[short hatch]

3456 is not the totall people who get in right?

[nova bough]

no its ppl who applied rea

[lapis hill]

i believe questbridge statistics are lumped into this

[nova bough]

accounting crudely for legacy and athlete recruits

how tho

[lapis hill]

as many colleges do with their ea/ed/rea

[orchid axle]

ii think back then its proven to be wrong

[oak dove]

ahhh

boo

[bleak ridge]

How many do they waitlist from REA

[short hatch]

they defer a good chunk

word on the blok

[nova bough]

ooo thats a good point

1,100 get waitlisted

[lapis hill]

its defer not waitlist

[orchid axle]

bad point tho if you got deferred then rejected

[lapis hill]

unless ur talking abt defer --> waitlist

[bleak ridge]

no waitlist for REA?

[orchid axle]

waiting so long for what

[lapis hill]

nope, you get reviewed again and are placed in the rd pool

[bleak ridge]

Noted

so it’s either yes, no, defer

[nova bough]

https://www.koppelmangroup.com/blog/2023/3/30/what-to-do-if-youre-waitlisted-by-princeton-2023#:~:text=Data shows that Princeton waitlists,eventually accepted in recent history. 800 agree to the waitlist and 16% of the 800 get yes

[lapis hill]

yeah

[nova bough]

but that percent varies alot year by year

[bleak ridge]

How do you get off the waitlist?

By quality or random?

[lapis hill]

not random

[pseudo oar]

If u r straight up not considering the legacy shouldn’t u also minus the legacy who applied from the denominators which like makes the rate higher?

[bleak ridge]

I’d expect it not to be

[shadow jolt]

why is it called princeton

[nova bough]

you take someone elses spot basically, if one of the accept students say no i think you replace them essentially

[orchid axle]

i'm starting to get grip of reality and now i think i def gon be rejected

or deferred at best

[nova bough]

same

[short hatch]

im reallyyyy hoping for an acceptance

[lapis hill]

the only "silver lining" i could say about the waitlist is that princeton often loses in cross admittance to the rest of hypsm

[orchid axle]

but why tho

[lapis hill]

idk its just a trend

[nova bough]

i thought i had a chance but rounding the corner to this week is making everything too real

[tough eagle]

i want thursday to come already

i want that rejection NOW

[pseudo oar]

True

[shadow jolt]

ur fine its undergrad

[nova bough]

same

[lapis hill]

its better to come to a gradual understanding than being surprised

[shadow jolt]

cheeel peelll

[lapis hill]

come to peace with the worst

[short hatch]

if they ignore my sneaky lil typo in my activity section and i dont get autorejected cuz of my gpa i think i have a decent chance

[lapis hill]

you won't feel too bad on thursday/friday

[orchid axle]

i hate myself istg

[nova bough]

can't wait to see that "we wish you the best in your future endeavors"

[orchid axle]

we regret to inform you

[bleak ridge]

I think I get deferred or rejected

Don’t expect the tiger but hope for it

[tough eagle]

but like its still quite sweet

[nova bough]

"this is no attack on your person/character

[orchid axle]

the admissions committee has completed its early action deliberations and has deferred a decision on your application

[orchid axle]

it iS tho

[nova bough]

yeah, even my interviewer said 'college applications are a crapshoot'

lmao

[tough eagle]

https://ivyhub.org/rejection-simulators/princeton/ help yourselves

[orchid axle]

man i've opened this

more than you know

[nova bough]

lmao thank you for this

im abt to get deja vu on thursday

[lapis hill]

honestly focus on rd it will make princeton decisions less impactful

if it turns out bad

[orchid axle]

the thing is i caN't

[nova bough]

but if it turns out good im not doing rd

[orchid axle]

damn

[nova bough]

exactly

[cunning vortex]

oh

still

👍

[meager tulip]

oh i already got my newark decision

[lapis hill]

🔥

i didn't apply there cuz it was commuter school

[meager tulip]

oh damn i applied just cuz i had a free spot

[lapis hill]

nb ftw tho

[sand crane]

Bro no jealousy just admiration honestly

[tiny summit]

ur right

good catch

[cunning vortex]

im gonna be 🥺 if u guys get in

[tough eagle]

nah id be jealous

cuz imma pos

[nova bough]

i thought i did, no?

[tiny summit]

wait nvm they alr did

yeah

[bleak ridge]

They’re done?

[lapis hill]

valid

[tiny summit]

okay so are there any questbridge statistics for 2019

tbh a 11% acceptance rate is more reassuring

[nova bough]

yall this math is calming my nerves

[tiny summit]

is there stats on sat scores between rea and rd

thatd help a bit id think

[nova bough]

true, it was 4 years ago tho, and now there are 5k early applications

[pseudo oar]

Oh ok ok

[nova bough]

so....its prob closer to <10 now

[sand crane]

Its kinda sus tho.. 11%

[lapis hill]

sat scores are really just to see

1.) if you meet institutional standards (generally past 1500)
2.) how it compares to you classmates

[tiny summit]

its def lower

[lapis hill]

if ur from dallas ur not gonna be compared to some kid in seattle

[sand crane]

Yea

[tiny summit]

its more to control for difference in level between rea and rd

[tough eagle]

fuck man the other guy in my schools thats applying to pton has a 1580 and i have a 1530

[pseudo oar]

I mean also that the rea applications r generally better than those applied rd

[tiny summit]

^

[lapis hill]

that's not a big difference

imo

[pseudo oar]

So 11% makes sense ig

[tiny summit]

i have a 1590 and the other ppl have like 1520 or lower

[sand crane]

Shit i dont have 1590

[lapis hill]

honestly as long as you're past 1500 there's no need to worry abt ur sat

[tiny summit]

but like idt it matters tbh

[lapis hill]

its only used to see if your application is worth the read

[tiny summit]

fuckk i wish u were wrong

[lapis hill]

unless your school avg is generally low

thats an exception

[nova bough]

no cause they prob had just as good stats, just the amt of rea applications this yr is like 30% larger than 2019

[tiny summit]

princeton didnt request my mp1 grades

[nova bough]

and the amt of spots r staying the same

[sand crane]

I wonder how they’ll assess me since no one has ever applied to princeton in my school

[lapis hill]

no?

[tiny summit]

but they also requested 0 ppl applying from my school this year

and they usually accept 1-2

[fiery ruin]

I've heard that this is not indicative of your chances, but I could be wrong.

[lapis hill]

class size is increaing

for pton

[nova bough]

amt of ppl they are acc

oh actually??

[tiny summit]

so i think it might just be every1 had 3.9+ w/o any trends so they didnt care

[lapis hill]

yeah

[nova bough]

how much?

[tiny summit]

no shot

[lapis hill]

not by a much

for rea i'd say maybe like 50 more spots

[tiny summit]

its 125 more

so assumign rea is what?

[hearty basin]

this is too real

[tiny summit]

30%

of class

[nova bough]

hm that still sucks

[shadow jolt]

its ballsington

:balls:

[pseudo oar]

How do u k

[fiery ruin]

Looking at past statistics, it seems to be close to 50%. I don't know how much it's changed in the past 4 years, but I'd assume it couldn't have changed an extremely significant amount.

[tiny summit]

https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2023/09/princeton-news-adpol-class-size-2027#:~:text=The Class of 2026 was,adding two new residential colleges.

[pseudo oar]

Then they’ll prob accept more than 125

[tiny summit]

The Class of 2026 was set to be the first larger class, 125 students bigger than the Class of 2025, with each class matching its size until the student body increased by 500 students in the aftermath of Princeton adding two new residential colleges.Sep 21, 2023

so its actually not even bigger

[pseudo oar]

Bc they will count those who might not come I think

[tiny summit]

50 students bigger than last years

and last year had comparatively lower yield rate

[sand crane]

[tiny summit]

The Class of 2027 is the second in a four-year expansion that will increase Princeton’s undergraduate student body by 500 students. The enrollment increase, paired with Princeton’s generous, no-loan financial aid program, will ensure that more talented students from all backgrounds and sectors of society have access to a Princeton education.

wait nvm

i think it might be 125

[nova bough]

"1500 students joined the class, over 150 more than the Class of 2025 and 75 higher than the University's projection" wym higher than your projection you get to control how many are in the class

[tiny summit]

yield

if more ppl come

its wraps

[meager tulip]

my school used to be pton feeder

one year 7 kids got in

idek how

[tiny summit]

last year 2 got in

always been at least one

hoping its me

[surreal cosmos]

dayum

[sand crane]

Good on u guys

[surreal cosmos]

mine sends 1-2 at most lol

[meager tulip]

yea idk how

[nova bough]

wow 7 kids thats crazy

[meager tulip]

from a class of 160 too

[surreal cosmos]

ru at a private

[meager tulip]

no

public

[surreal cosmos]

well; now i assume

oh dang

[lapis hill]

public

[nova bough]

we had a few go to harvard last yr, they all got rejected from pton

[lapis hill]

but now its like 1-2

[tiny summit]

do nj kids get an advantage

[meager tulip]

but a cracked public

[surreal cosmos]

yeah slightly

[lapis hill]

honestly its cuz theres more applications from nj

[tiny summit]

i saw my admissions officer

[meager tulip]

yea

[lapis hill]

than for other top schools

[tiny summit]

u can see it

online

ur ao

[surreal cosmos]

i met mine she is so nice

[meager tulip]

also cuz princeton admits hella kids from princeton

[tiny summit]

fuck im like 10 minutes away from princeton

[lapis hill]

they literally have an ao for phs 💀

[tiny summit]

they have their own ao for princeton high school

[meager tulip]

im 30 mins away ? idk

[sand crane]

Damn

How many kids from phs usually get in?

[meager tulip]

hella

[lapis hill]

a lot

[sand crane]

Woah

[lapis hill]

i can't give an exact number

i forgor 💀

[sand crane]

More than 10?

[tiny summit]

u could check the high school page

[meager tulip]

yea prolly

[lapis hill]

i'd say 20-30 range

[tiny summit]

jesus

[meager tulip]

welp

[tiny summit]

thats 5%

of the class

every year

[shadow jolt]

wot

[nova bough]

imagine if phs had some sort of dual credit with pton

[shadow jolt]

its normal for unis to usually have more ppl in the same area right?

[nova bough]

thatd be so cool

[meager tulip]

they do 💀

[nova bough]

ohmygod ofc

[tiny summit]

all schools in nj do?

[meager tulip]

no just pton because of course

[tiny summit]

i was finna be in that for cs till they ran out of space

[nova bough]

we cant win

[meager tulip]

im not salty tho 😄 😐

[lapis hill]

honestly we'll get in if we get in

can't have hard feelings abt thursday

[nova bough]

im a bit jealous

literally ur given opp that are impossible to us

[lapis hill]

i mean thats how life is

[tiny summit]

im getting in

[cunning vortex]

im getting in

the deferral pile

[tiny summit]

😭

manifest it

manifest the acceptance

[meager tulip]

i think defer is good tho

for pton

[tiny summit]

no its not

[nova bough]

like america manifested destiny

[tiny summit]

idt

[meager tulip]

like 30% deferall rate

[tiny summit]

i swear every1 gets deferred

[meager tulip]

at least since last year

[short hatch]

on my knees to get accepted

[lapis hill]

bro its literally for one area

that's a lot of extrapolation

[cunning vortex]

i'd kiss my ao if that means getting in

[meager tulip]

bro but still

[sand crane]

I thought the deferaal rate was >50 %?

[tiny summit]

^

[nova bough]

app they had enough qualified kids to fill 2 classes

[meager tulip]

i mean not according to cc

[lapis hill]

cc 😂

[sand crane]

Cc unreliable af

[cunning vortex]

i've seen a lot of ppl get defer --> accepted

[tiny summit]

CC is ur dad and granddad

[lapis hill]

for all we know it could be a shit poster

[cunning vortex]

even some of my friends did last yr

[tiny summit]

theorizing based on facebook

i've seen a lot of ppl

[lapis hill]

W

[tiny summit]

get rejected

but not me

not you

we all locked

[nova bough]

then who

[tiny summit]

billert

billert is rejected

[nova bough]

rip billert

thanks for taking 1 for the team

[tiny summit]

bro gave us his legacy

[rose lava]

How much does legacy actually matter?

[meager tulip]

idk

[tiny summit]

a ton

[rose lava]

ive seen on cds that its considered, but not nearly to the level as everything else

[nova bough]

a whopping 14.1% of 2019's class was legacy

[meager tulip]

everything matters in such a competitive process so

[tiny summit]

its literally just if u have enough of a gpa and sat

[rose lava]

damn

[tiny summit]

ur locked

[lapis hill]

valid

you sound like an intellectual

[tiny summit]

if ur qualifieid

ur guaranteed basically

[meager tulip]

yea maybe i am

chill

[lapis hill]

"yeah maybe i am" 🤓

[nova bough]

no bc so many other ppl are qualifieed also

[tiny summit]

yeah but ur legacy

[nova bough]

ohh yeah if ur qualified and ur legacy its game over for everyone else

[meager tulip]

welp

[rose lava]

its over.

[tiny summit]

fuck billert

[frank pond]

what have yall been up to wtf

[surreal cosmos]

erm dont forget about athletes ☝️ 🤓

[nova bough]

speak of the devil

[tiny summit]

athletes deserve it tho

[rose lava]

wait actually true

[meager tulip]

💀

[nova bough]

athletes have my utmost respect if ur qualified and u can maintain a sport at the state qualifying level like ur god and i worship u

[dusty meteor]

No portal astrology

[surreal cosmos]

i love u.

[nova bough]

luv u too

[tiny summit]

thing is, i dont like athletes in "irrelevant sports" being treated so much better than like star musicians

cuz its same effort and ur not rlly bringing the big bucks that star qbs be bringing ykwim

i digress 🤓

[rose lava]

what pisses you off more: that or legacy?

[frank pond]

i am just one applicant in a pool of 35k

[tiny summit]

legacy

[nova bough]

i think pton emphasizes musicians lowkey, i visited campus and they have a building full of steinways, their dance program is huge too
