Princeton University (2024-2025)

[fair marsh]

Fire

[thin panther]

it's aalll good dawg don't even stress

[twin adder]

crazy combo

[white marten]

As a result of my deferral I received five cookies and a half of a cheesecake

Best day ever

[fair marsh]

Not the end of the world. I got in RD 😋

[old turtle]

I will say that I work on genomics and multimodal imaging and clinical data

[gritty spindle]

MY GOAT

how have you been

[fair marsh]

Jump scare

[primal burrow]

omg that’s amazing!

[fair marsh]

JK I MISSED YOU

[gritty spindle]

ok..

[gritty spindle]

missed you too goat

how has princeton been

[fair marsh]

Guess what. Harvard trip otw

[gritty spindle]

hella hard i bet

[gritty spindle]

waiting

u have my number just lmk

[fair marsh]

My acapella group is performing at Harvard Yale next year and I’m going sometime next sem

[fair marsh]

Yuh

[fair marsh]

Truly

[white marten]

Do you guys know anyone who got in after deferral? Not even worried, if it’s low I’ll break the trend 💪

[fair marsh]

Yes 100%

[thin panther]

a bunch of people

[white marten]

Cool!!!!

[thin panther]

i know someone who got in deferred RD

there's always hope

[fair marsh]

It’s occurring to me now that we’re both on the same campus on A2C during reading period

[white marten]

Im so glad that Pton isn’t a “soft reject” school tbh

[gritty spindle]

wait thats fire

i hate yalies tho

[old turtle]

I'm still amazed they changed the calendar so exams are before christmas

[thin panther]

i finished studying just letting brain rot

[primal burrow]

wait sorry, stupid question, but what does that entail?

[thin panther]

like they add bs to rejection letter I'm guessing

[white marten]

Several schools are known for accepting virtually none of their deferrals

Harvard, MIT

That’s what a soft reject is

[primal burrow]

oh okay, thanks

[white marten]

We are not soft rejects 💪

We are future tigers

[old turtle]

My roommate/best friend in college was a WL admit

[white marten]

The only time I think about something that isn’t a decision is when I can find optimism!!!

[primal burrow]

cubs rn

[ionic siren]

this goes hard ngl

[thin panther]

like glazing kids up in the decision letter

[white marten]

Ignore everything that happened the last few days in this thread before 7pm EST

That was my sleep paralysis demon not me

[ionic siren]

soft reject = they defer a ton of ppl so deferral doesnt mean anything

[primal burrow]

wait but doesn’t princeton defer a lot of people too?

[old turtle]

I didn't really expect you to change. But I hoped that you'd reflect on it a little bit more

[ionic siren]

yeah princeton is also a soft reject school i dont know what the other ppl are saying

[thin panther]

i think so

lots of people apply

[ionic siren]

it's like 78% of ppl

stanford is 8%

for context

[white marten]

No it’s not

It’s 50% in this server, which is cracked, so probably closer to 30-40 overall

[thin panther]

@tropic inlet welcome the kids

[white marten]

Reflect how

[left tapir]

no chance bruh 😭 if rejection rate isnt way higher this yr im a bum

[primal burrow]

does princeton release these kind of data on their common data set?

[left tapir]

most insane kids got rejected at my school

[ionic siren]

by the poll this server has a 27% acceptance rate lmao

[white marten]

Theyre the one that brought it back up 💀

[ionic siren]

so i wouldnt really use the stuff here to gauge that

[humble pebble]

😭 BYE

[thin panther]

if only you knew

[old turtle]

can you mentally resolve your thoughts first before yapping 😅

[west light]

Rejected lol

[stone river]

i say this time and time again that majority of this server does not reflect the majority of the applicant pool

[ionic siren]

on google it said it was around 80% in the 2010s i have no reason to believe they would flip that drastically

[white marten]

Fair

[ionic siren]

a2c is the real feeder school

[humble pebble]

literally

[stone river]

100% guaranteed admission to squidward community college

[west light]

Goodbye I'm gonna go grind rds now

[white marten]

Why would the rejection rate be drastically higher in A2C

[humble pebble]

i said this before and ill say it again

"average a2cer: 15 APs by Jr year, 5 IB courses all 6 or 7, 1550 SAT, 35 ACT, cured leukaemia, did research w a stanford prof, shadowed a doctor, USAMO plat x2, NASA internship, USABO x3 plat, presented a resolution to the UNSC in new york, helped build a rocket, has 5 D1 offers for 5 diff sports"

[white marten]

A2Cers are all cracked

[ionic siren]

no, it's that the acceptance rate is drastically higher

[thin panther]

bro graduated 24 years ago and is feuding with helpless teenagers???

[ionic siren]

an average pool looks like 5% accepted 70-80% deferred

[stone river]

where’s the USAMO plat x2

[thin panther]

knowing "yapping" is impressive tho

[ionic siren]

if the 5% turns into 25%, obviously the deferral will look less

[humble pebble]

you guys can watch me go absolute mental when i get my acceptance letter tmr

[humble pebble]

on and NASA internship

dont forget that

[white marten]

Google the acceptance rate it’s actually like 15%

[old turtle]

excuse me, it's a RANGE 😅

[ionic siren]

am i in the right thread

[thin panther]

what

[stone river]

forgot to mention the most important aspect: their parents donated 2 buildings and there’s a library w their last name slapped on it

[thin panther]

OH

[hallow jay]

tbf if ur doing that well dont need an ivy

[thin panther]

fuck

[ionic siren]

oh for early nvm mbmb

[thin panther]

sorry so 15+ years ago

[west light]

Rejection is bad for princeton right that means my profile isn't good enough?

[humble pebble]

"average a2cer: 15 APs by Jr year, 5 IB courses all 6 or 7, 1550 SAT, 35 ACT, cured leukaemia, did research w a stanford prof, shadowed a doctor, USAMO plat x2, NASA internship, USABO x3 plat, presented a resolution to the UNSC in new york, helped build a rocket, has 5 D1 offers for 5 diff sports"

[ionic siren]

nah my main EC is a business that will let me pay for my own college tuition out of pocket

[humble pebble]

LMAO

[ionic siren]

i still want to go because itll be an important experience

[stone river]

(oops)

[old turtle]

also, he ain't helpless

[left tapir]

nah bruh my insane val and some kid with insane olympiads got rejected

either princeton is doing dice rolls

[tropic inlet]

yo did u do undergrad or grad at pton @old turtle

[left tapir]

or usaco plat isnt good enough for them

[white marten]

I have definitely learned some valuable lessons

[primal burrow]

not necessarily, princeton just has a lot of applicants, leading them to reject and defer people. some people get accepted to other good schools but rejected at princeton

[old turtle]

Undergrad

[humble pebble]

"average a2cer: 15 APs by Jr year, 5 IB courses all 6 or 7, 1550 SAT, 35 ACT, cured leukaemia, did research w a stanford prof, shadowed a doctor, USAMO plat x2, NASA internship, USABO x3 plat, presented a resolution to the UNSC in new york, helped build a rocket, has a business that makes over 5mil a year in revenue, 8-gen legacy to ALL IVYS, all ivys have at least one building with their last name slapped on it, has 5 D1 offers for 5 diff sports"

[left tapir]

dude not even deferalls is insane

[white marten]

One thing I realized is that opening the acceptance portal won’t be so hard next time

[west light]

Yeah lol

It just opened

[left tapir]

nah they write insanely well

[thin panther]

bro was dapping up james madison and shit

[left tapir]

rejection a lot more common this yr

idefk

[ionic siren]

rejection simulator

[primal burrow]

built 500 houses for typhoon/hurricane survivors is missing

[humble pebble]

hes also a mod so its literally his job

[old turtle]

I know a few folks who are still on campus

[humble pebble]

ur new here learn to mind ur business

[white marten]

Similar ratio to last year, 1-2-1

[thin panther]

what????

princeton L

[white marten]

Im just gonna focus on a kickass LOCI and finalizing my RDs

[humble pebble]

wow pton stereotypes really do exist

[thin panther]

be gentle with the ass

[ionic siren]

why am i here i didnt even apply to princeton

[white marten]

I don’t need to change anything drastically because I know I’m on the right track

[ionic siren]

meow

[tropic inlet]

anyone here thinking of majoring in math?

[humble pebble]

i cant keep adding on shit its gonna become a whole essay

LMAO

[thin panther]

because it's lit ROL TIGS

[left tapir]

if u got a deferral i think thats rlly good ngl

[ionic siren]

just added it to the common app 3 seconds ago 🤩

[old turtle]

yup, they can be assholes at the drop of a hat

[humble stream]

hi guys

[humble pebble]

notttt surprisedddd

[thin panther]

[white marten]

Deferral is still the overwhelming likelihood of rejection but it’s a step in a good direction and I’m proud of my efforts

[tropic inlet]

?

[humble stream]

how is everyone

[ionic siren]

always 🫂

[tough juniper]

This isn’t even the first year

[old turtle]

[tropic inlet]

[humble pebble]

[white marten]

I am NOT doing that shit again

[stone river]

ruh roh

[thin panther]

[white marten]

It’s true I’m hella embarrassed

[humble pebble]

[stone river]

sniper sniper sniper

wifey wifey wifey

Naur

It was the overlords

[tough juniper]

Fake tux invited hungry canyon to the server

[stone river]

I’m rather just a mere disciple

[white marten]

What happens in the princeton thread gets you muted in the Princeton thread 💀

[tough juniper]

So he was playing dumb

[ionic siren]

the harvard thread everybody has just pure resignation lowkey

[white marten]

Depression probably

[stone river]

right it felt so quiet

[humble pebble]

we love beefing w new pton members 🤩

[stone river]

didn’t rea drop for harv too?

[white marten]

Yeah

[stone river]

yeah ….

maybe not a great showing for many

[white marten]

Maybe Harvard was a slaughter this year

[humble stream]

my friend got in but he’s insane

[stone river]

but alas life goes on you guys will all end up at great places do not fear

[ionic siren]

i go to a public school where everybody's cracked but nobody gets in so i dont really know

[humble pebble]

W i really hope u get into stanford/duke bc ppl i dont like are applyign there so u should kick their ass

[white marten]

Yeah I feel really really good

[stone river]

Oh em gee you are too kind

[ionic siren]

[white marten]

That’s crazy

[ionic siren]

[white marten]

I was the first person to apply T20 from my school since 1994

Nice meeting you all @old turtle @white marten @crimson jackal @humble stream @sonic dome @hallow jay 💕

[white marten]

Thank you for being a small slice of my life dark dragon 532 and good luck in your RD adventures

This thread got so wholesome when we were all literally feral six hours ago

[humble stream]

you’re gonna be great

[old turtle]

naw, we were mooooing a few hours ago

[halcyon hare]

🥺🥺yall are sweethearts

[white marten]

You and I BOTH know that I was NOT mooing

[stone river]

best of luck w the rest of your apps!

[humble stream]

og princeton rea gang on top 💯

[white marten]

I am moooooooooing now

[white marten]

I’ll join you guys in the spring

Wait my one sober prediction might be right from when yall sent that tiger swimming image

[halcyon hare]

yes! haven’t done my app tho 🥲 gotta start doing it until penn comes out

I read I a lot and see how good it is here

[white marten]

Hamalia were you rejected or deferred

Deferred right?

My goat

Deferred gang on top

[humble stream]

looking forward to seeing you 🫡

[halcyon hare]

AND ALSO not to mention Princeton graduates and current students who are active and help applicants here

[white marten]

The other girl in my school got—oh wait

React ❤️ for Qhasti appreciation and putting up with all of our bullshit

[halcyon hare]

how was the pton supplemental essays writing process for you like

[humble pebble]

Moooooo

[white marten]

Moooooo

Funny story

I came out of the conference room smiling and everyone started to react like I got accepted so I had to yell “DEFERRED!” across the whole building to calm everyone down

I was just so excited to not get rejected

Im fr bubbling rn

I’ve got to log off bro or I’m gonna yap everyone’s ear off

See you freaks in March

Also when I need help with my LOCI

[halcyon hare]

I LOVEE THEM

[stone river]

yes go lock in guys

[white marten]

I’m so grateful I locked in on those beforehand

[stone river]

we will be here when you guys come back

[halcyon hare]

visit penn thread too

[stone river]

dw

[white marten]

I have two MIT essays to write and that’s it, I bet I could squeeze in another school too or maybe even two over winter break

[sonic dome]

ill be on all the threads of schools im applying to closer to the decision dates

[white marten]

Idk where else I’d apply though

Cornell physics is pretty great

Georgetown, but it’s kinda expensive

[fleet mica]

just apply lmao?

[white marten]

Yes

It’s absurd

[fleet mica]

how would they know tho

did they really check every single student since 1995

where they applied

[white marten]

It’s a huge achievement, they’d know

Also an old ass teacher told me

[fleet mica]

to js apply? anyone can apply bruh

[white marten]

Who had been there since the 80s

[white marten]

Maybe at your school

95% of the kids at my school would likely struggle to write a supp

It’s different out here

Even I didn’t consider applying to T20s until about five months ago

And now I’m on deferral from a T1

It’s so surreal

Anyway I’m just gonna watch YouTube for a while

Signing off

[old turtle]

I think everyone relevant already voted, but I'll plug the poll one last time: #1268244147962118265 message

[gaunt bay]

Welcome everyone to those accepted!! Sorry just made a discord to get on here, but if any of you have questions feel free to ask 🙂

and go and celebrate haha

[humble stream]

any must-see places on/off campus? i’m visiting this weekend

[gaunt bay]

What are you looking for specifically

like food?

[humble stream]

yeah any food recs or just cool places in general

[gaunt bay]

must places to see....hmmm I'd say Nassau Hall is a must obviously, but I'd go with chancellor green library

should be open to general public on weekdays

food rescs -- tacoria, diesel and dukes, pjs, schouse, mediterra/witherspoon grill/agricola is good,

mezzaluna

all good spots

also sorry for typos!! haha

[pulsar crest]

How are people doing meaningful shit between early and regular apps for letters of continued interest

[humble stream]

omg awesome! i’ll def try and check out some buildings

[gaunt bay]

wdym

idk who the question was for

[humble stream]

also what do you major in?

[gaunt bay]

undecided still! we declare that in the spring, but I am still deciding between econ, complit, history, idk still haha it's a hard decision for sure

[humble stream]

nice!! obviously there are gonna be bad professors anywhere, but in general how’s the academic support? my interviewer and tour gave me the sense that it was pretty good but that would be one of the biggest deciding factors for me in committing for sure

[gaunt bay]

good question - depends on the department

usually introductory courses in most departments have support though

like a lot of it

but in higher level, not so much and this is expected right, because at that point you know how things work a little more

[drifting dagger]

hi xouixoui - how are you liking Princeton?

I just got in today!

[gaunt bay]

i like it a lot!

congrats!!!

it's a place where I think you can study a lot of things, and princeton pulls you in unexpected directions sometimes too

[humble stream]

yeah, makes sense, i was mostly worried about introductory courses and getting adjusted so this is good! thank you so much

[gaunt bay]

yep no worries.

[drifting dagger]

do you know what the poker scene is like at Princeton

this is very important to me that there are clubs/games

[gaunt bay]

i actually do, it's very scattered

I do believe we have a club, but students host things all the time etc

some clubs host poker events as well

[drifting dagger]

oh that’s awesome!

taking out the question mark in my name now

[gaunt bay]

@patent junco

^poker person

[patent junco]

huh who is this lol

[gaunt bay]

insane

[patent junco]

i'm so confused

but yes poker is very fun here

but I punted $300 in plo in 30 mins

[drifting dagger]

most enjoyable plo game

https://www.reddit.com/r/poker/comments/20628q/my_experience_with_plo_so_far/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

[gaunt bay]

what do you like about poker elsie

[modern drum]

former level 1 record holder damn 🔥

[drifting dagger]

I’m a degenerate gambler

but poker is the best since at least there’s some skill

[patent junco]

[drifting dagger]

also what is the party scene like at Princeton?

[gaunt bay]

it's alright

depends on what you like to do

and also who you know

[drifting dagger]

I hear that colonial has a big gambling culture?

someone I know said they played in a poker tournament there

[gaunt bay]

ehh kind of

[drifting dagger]

how do I join

[gaunt bay]

gambling culture?

to join colonial you sign in

sophomore spring

[drifting dagger]

oh I can’t join as a freshman?

[gaunt bay]

nope

[drifting dagger]

rip

[median zealot]

@gaunt bay are you gonna bicker?

[gaunt bay]

probably just charter, so "selective" sign in

[drifting dagger]

what is bickering?

[gaunt bay]

it's the system for getting into eating clubs

or some of them

[drifting dagger]

oh

how do I get in the best one

also which one is the best

[gaunt bay]

ah the age old question

and the "best" are subjective. IMO I think none of them are good at parties, I'd say Cottage (or hot take, but Quad when cannon is full!) is the best on the street

[drifting dagger]

ok

lava and xouixoui what are you two majoring in?

and do you like it?

[gaunt bay]

I am thinking charter because it's super clean, people are chill, food is good etc. I'm not joining for parties since I already know enough people at the others 🙂

[drifting dagger]

I’m deciding between math orfe or maybe English/comp lit

I want to do quant but I also really like literature

[gaunt bay]

undecided still, that's sophomore spring for us AB people

[drifting dagger]

cool

[white marten]

Can’t sleep lol

[gaunt bay]

but for this it's complicated. Some people do frats/sororities --> big 4 pipeline, others get through connections, or sports teams

[drifting dagger]

what is big 4?!

[versed sail]

mmmm

[gaunt bay]

Cottage, TI, Cannon, Ivy

most competitive to get into, exclusively bicker (so not sign in)

[drifting dagger]

oh

I want to join

how do I get in

[gaunt bay]

after you get here in the fall, there are lawn parties in the first week so don't worry there's plenty of stuff to do before sophomore year

and charter has parties every friday basically for frosh

[drifting dagger]

let’s go

lawnparties sound fun I just wish they got drake or jay z to pull up

or kendrick

[gaunt bay]

way too expensive unfortunately 😦 I've actually asked a few people

because drake had that whole princeton jersey thing, j cole with his princeton mention

[drifting dagger]

right I saw that

[gaunt bay]

but apparently the budget is fixed for it every year

so there's just nothing anyone can do

i mean again princeton partying isn't really the best, like alabama or FSU or michigan will have the best events

naturally

[drifting dagger]

makes sense yeah

they don’t have the IB or quant placement like us

[gaunt bay]

not really

especially quant

[drifting dagger]

this is why Princeton is so awesome

I think maybe I will minor in English or comp lit then

[white marten]

Yoooooo new accept located

[gaunt bay]

honestly majoring in them is a great deal

[drifting dagger]

Princeton doesn’t allow double majoring right

[white marten]

What is comp lit? I am not a humanities guy lol just music

[drifting dagger]

that’s quite dumb

[gaunt bay]

comparative literature

def considering majoring in it

[drifting dagger]

nice what kind of literature do you like?

[white marten]

Probably because the course rigor is so insane that double majors would be actively destroying themselves

[gaunt bay]

i actually do a lot of stuff in hellenic studies!

[drifting dagger]

I’m really into Latin and Hellenic studies

No way!

[gaunt bay]

oh wow how convenient!

μιλάς;

[white marten]

If I get in RD I plan on minoring in music as an astrophysics major

[drifting dagger]

Yes!

Not very well though

[drifting dagger]

oh that makes sense

[sterile terrace]

Might have to hop on here after that shitty farmer school in Ithaca broke my heart

Making it out the hood y'all??

[drifting dagger]

?

isn’t Princeton supposed to be very safe

when I visited I saw a homeless person though

[white marten]

When he says making out of the hood he means making it out of a metaphorically bad situation

College apps being the situation

[old turtle]

Just as likely to be a local math professor

[drifting dagger]

oh so like having 7-2 in poker

although you could just fold pre

[white marten]

To answer your question @sterile terrace . I am being held in the hood (deferral)

[drifting dagger]

hahaha yea

[gaunt bay]

Σοβαρά ρε φίλε αστειεύεσαι τώρα;;

[hidden thicket]

Oh wow the great @gaunt bay

[sterile terrace]

Uhhh

[tawdry bane]

congrats to yall

[drifting dagger]

rip you hate to see it

[white marten]

Eh

[sterile terrace]

Lmaoo nice

[white marten]

I surpassed my expectations

[gaunt bay]

Μπράβο ρε φίλε μπράβο

[sterile terrace]

Did a lot of ppl get in here?

[white marten]

And have already done something insane for my area so I’m not extraordinarily fussed

[drifting dagger]

[white marten]

About a 1-2-1 ratio

[hidden thicket]

Except I have to explain why a deferral is cool to everyone I talk to because they don’t know it’s a thing 💀

[lapis cobalt]

why are u spitting facts

[gaunt bay]

Δεν ξέρω αλλά αν θέλεις μπορείς να μιλήσεις στα ελληνικά, «γαμημένο κάτι» χαχαχα

[tawdry bane]

im j right

[white marten]

My RDs are all almost done

If I can finish MIT this weekend I’ll start looking at more schools and maybe add one more

[drifting dagger]

Is that what I think it means lmao

[white marten]

Bro it looks like ahehegagdhhebsjdhwhdjwkkdhfjwkejrje to me

[gaunt bay]

Φτούσου ρε μαλάκα

[hidden thicket]

Apply to caltech !

[gaunt bay]

insane

[white marten]

What is a ftousou re malaka

[drifting dagger]

Huh

[gaunt bay]

but anyways yes i study a lot of modern greek language literature and poetry

[white marten]

I will, I think my Caltech app is goated

[hidden thicket]

I think the best major at Princeton is ML track math

[drifting dagger]

How are Greek classes at Princeton?

[hidden thicket]

Best of luck

[white marten]

Honestly

[drifting dagger]

Tbh I just shamelessly translate most of the stuff

[white marten]

And this isn’t dooming, I am being COMPLETELY real here

Of all the schools I have crafted apps for I think Princeton was my worst

[gaunt bay]

100% the best classes I've taken here

ooops wrong message

[drifting dagger]

That’s awesome

[gaunt bay]

Αλλά να σου πω ρε, στο Πρίνστον γενικότερα πρέπει να κάνουμε τόση γαμημένη δουλειά κάθε μέρα κάθε βδομάδα

[drifting dagger]

Anyways my phone is gonna die but nice talking to everyone

[hidden thicket]

I think computer science classes are quite good in quality relative to size

[gaunt bay]

[hidden thicket]

🥺

🤪

[humble pebble]

how'd u guys find a2c

[drifting dagger]

If anyone is in NC please reach out 🙏

[gaunt bay]

just not the same

[hidden thicket]

Princeton students are way too snobbish

[gaunt bay]

transfers

[hidden thicket]

What

R u good xouixoui

[gaunt bay]

HAHAHAHAHa

yes I am

[gaunt bay]

also just a small thing, but your rules policy doesn't specify a provision for speaking a foreign language. But since I was warned about a rule just curious about the infraction...

totally new here

[steady tendon]

not all

[hidden thicket]

(I was trolling sorry)

I think most students are very friendly and warm

[median zealot]

ive met a lot of great people here

it's rlly refreshing imo

[hidden thicket]

Yeah quality of people at Princeton is overall quite great

[gaunt bay]

i mean people are people.

but princeton has lots of smart talented and funny people

i'd say

[crimson jackal]

Are the Makerspaces free to use?

Or do I have to pay

[steady tendon]

therye free

[steady tendon]

you just have to book

[crimson jackal]

HOORAY

Like book tools?

Or the space

Sorry I’m so so hyped for this

Or like a time slot

[steady tendon]

there is a correlation tho between obnoxious assholes and certain extracurrics + clubs

[steady tendon]

you have to like make an appt etc etc

certain tools require training too lol

[crimson jackal]

Ohhh I see I see omg

[steady tendon]

its a little funky

but very cooo

[crimson jackal]

I cannot wait to finally use a 3D printer

[steady tendon]

i need to get on that

[crimson jackal]

This is so cool

Thank you

[steady tendon]

ya

[sinful trail]

Man I got deferred

Wtv

[heavy breach]

✋

[old turtle]

it's ok. it looks like that happened to half the students here: #1268244147962118265 message

[heavy breach]

12 REA admits is insane god

[clear yoke]

aaaaand deferred

[clear yoke]

did any internationals get in

[quasi spoke]

got in as an intl!!

[white marten]

Read through your link, you have a FANTASTIC project going on

[quasi spoke]

omg thank you sm!! one of the things im super proud of <333

[hallow jay]

W

[warm panther]

advice in #🌻-app-questions is much appreciated ❤️

@old turtle 🙏

[clear yoke]

wow, from which country?

[bronze sundial]

Not necessarily I got straight rejected from brown ed and got into duke and Williams and eventually Yale off the wl

[quasi spoke]

south korea!!

[heavy breach]

iirc princeton is pretty intl friendly

they dont consider citizenship status at all, though obviously intl applicants will be compared to a more competitive pool

[gaunt bay]

Congratulations!! ☺️

[halcyon hare]

did u also apply for fin aid?

[clear yoke]

amazing! Congrats

Apparently almost 10 people got in from the Uk

[old turtle]

Sorry, not my area of expertise

[heavy breach]

pton is universally need blind

[warm panther]

yo apparently a princeton mena deferral is an extremely good sign

they take barely anyone from my region

so

[clear yoke]

bro doesn’t know the insane Dubai international school kids

[warm panther]

none of them got in

i know and am in contact

[clear yoke]

not a single one?

wow

[warm panther]

apparently

dubai college and ASD are the feeders

no princeton

[clear yoke]

so bro how are TEN people getting in from London

[warm panther]

[clear yoke]

all from Eaton and Harrow as well

private school kids got it good man

[warm panther]

you got it trust

[white marten]

No statistics back it up but I feel the same way about Idaho

Maybe it’s just hopium

But I think I’m allowed a little

[wicked widget]

where r u from?

[sinful trail]

Yuh, least its not rejection

[violet vector]

Can someone accepted tell me if it's a tiger silhouette or a tiger face on the letter
I've got a friend who was "accepted" with a tiger silhouette letter he won't let us view longer than 2 secs

[old turtle]

cooked.

[pulsar crest]

Are deferred applications read by the same admissions officer?

[crimson jackal]

I got a face

[old turtle]

@warm panther I understand your anxiety, but the folks here aren't college counselors who see this process year in and year out, so none of us are qualified to give real advice on these questions

[old turtle]

I sorta wish it just said "YES!"

[jolly wasp]

same for me they prob accepted 2 people max from my country in rea

optimistic scenario

[warm panther]

what ciuntry again?

[jolly wasp]

turkey

i got deferred

[old turtle]

If interested, vote in the results poll: #1268244147962118265 message

[old turtle]

that sucks, you working on your RDs?

[warm panther]

still in the game

[jolly wasp]

yeah

defer is not bad esp for pton, but im just overthinking about my early choices maybe i shouldve applied to northwestern or smth

[warm panther]

this was literally me

[jolly wasp]

its hard in regular for intls

[warm panther]

but with brown

18% ed acceptance rate

[warm panther]

yes bro and i need aid too

[jolly wasp]

ill just try my best and hope for the best atp

[old turtle]

It's always a matter of perspective

[jolly wasp]

same i need full ride

[old turtle]

I interviewed someone once and really hoped they'd have a chance. They got deferred, that's a W in my book

[jolly wasp]

whats the estimated defer rate for princeton

prob nearly 30% but idk

its probably lower for intls

[clear yoke]

probably insanely high for internationals lol

[warm panther]

whilst i wish i had ur level of optimism and to some extent i do

this is as close to an L as it can get without it being a straight L in rejection

now we need to scramble to finish rds, and for me, do finals next week

i am also now going to get compared with my entire applicant poolm which is full of d1 lying bullshitters who have oil money and fake everything including essays

[warm panther]

exactly

since theyre so selective they wanna see every1 b4 choosing

[jolly wasp]

i heard so many rejections from my country

[old turtle]

so be as authentic as you can be and beat their asses.

[clear yoke]

I heard the complete opposite lmao like 10 acceptances from London alone and then almost everyone else deferred

probably loads of rejections in Asia tho

[warm panther]

that is currently the plan - but at the end of the day college is a business, so an isef winner who bullshitted their way their bcz uni profs were hired in the background to do all the work will still outdo me because, well, they won isef

[frigid lily]

it's sad for internationals maybe they're just deferring cuz trump's coming jan 20

[warm panther]

life is unfair and it is what it is

[warm panther]

not relevant

[clear yoke]

how’s that the case lots of internationals got in bro

[frigid lily]

yeah im just speculating

[clear yoke]

I doubt that played into anything

[old turtle]

I mean this in the nicest way possible - so why are you wasting your time here when you could be productive?

[frigid lily]

because cornell really cut down on indian admits after they released that travel ban statement

[clear yoke]

yeah India is just permanently cooked tho

[warm panther]

0 offense taken and youre totally right

im coping

i feel lost and finished

i have to write 10000 more words for 14 rds

[frigid lily]

yeah 😭

[warm panther]

and i have finals mext week and im on a borderline A for physics c mech

[old turtle]

I understand, but the sooner you get over it, the sooner you get back to doing what you're good at

[clear yoke]

same bro 3 weeks let’s lock in 🤣

[old turtle]

and you don't need to write 10,000 words. It's more like the same 600 with 14 edits

[stone river]

I feel like a broken tape but i’m being fr when i say that y’all will be fine regardless where you end up 😭 what matters is if you decide to maximize the resources you’re given at whatever institution you decide to attend

[warm panther]

probably

i just need to get into the flow

[warm panther]

you are correct but

for me and for a lot of us here

and i dont wanna come off as prideful or arrogant

[clear yoke]

maximize utility type shi at the Lagrangian function within the budget constraint

[warm panther]

btu i want to be surroundedby other people who care as much about schooling as i do

and i want ot be in a place that is relfective of the efforts that ive done in highschool

a place where i can build onto my work, not start from square 1

[old turtle]

you're always starting from square 1. That's just life

[stone river]

this is understandable, but you are going in with the assumption that you will “click” w the peers who have the same mindset as you

[stone river]

and this too

[warm panther]

princeton square 1 and safety school square 1 are two totally different board games

[old turtle]

I thought I'd get along with everyone at Princeton and I'd be surrounded by like-minded individuals. That could not be farther from the truth 😅

that frankly, was delusional

[subtle summit]

lol real asf

[white marten]

Update: my LOCI has several things in it that reflect positively on me yay

[hallow jay]

what happened?

[old turtle]

there's a great deal of social and cultural diversity. And imposter syndrome

[hallow jay]

imposter syndrome how? diversity is a plus for me tbh

like ppl feel like they dont belong or smthn

[stone river]

also people are a product of their environment

[old turtle]

do you feel like you belong?

[stone river]

some people will feel the stress more than others

and whether you can deal with it

is … tbd

[old turtle]

there was Law just a few days ago speaking to this

[quasi spoke]

planning to!!

[white marten]

Wait weren’t finaid apps due on November 6th

[quasi spoke]

oh wait sorry i read that as smth else 😭 yeah no i did full pay

[white marten]

ouch

[white marten]

same 💀

[devout furnace]

Same

[old turtle]

Welcome!

[ionic siren]

:D

[sinful trail]

How does deferral work

Do they like

Reread my application or

[serene tinsel]

during rd i think

[sinful trail]

Oh nice

That’s lowkey fine

Just another shot ig

[humble stream]

omg you changed your la croix color to match :DD

[lofty aspen]

what did yall write about in yall's essays?

me too! good luck

[old turtle]

15th century chinese gothic architecture and its impact on the design of european fortresses

[white marten]

I wrote about nascar, Hummel, note taking, book banning, backyard Astronomy, living in a small town, robotics camps for underprivileged children, among other things

[white marten]

Someone probably unironically did

[old turtle]

real talk, I think there was an 18th century european assault on a chinese fortress that was unsuccessful that changed european fort design

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DcUVcvpV0E&ab_channel=SandRhomanHistory

[hallow jay]

mentoring learning curiosity language math

[old turtle]

oops, it was the chinese who assaulted a russian fortress and failed miserably

[lofty aspen]

i know 😭 i might actually cry if i dont get in anywhere

😩 😩

[twin elm]

i submitted finaid but now it says it not complete again

i swear i did it before the deadline

oh my god

i submitted it but did not upload the supporting documents

its so over.....

[old turtle]

e-mail the admissions office, they might reopen it? Probably don't want to e-mail financial documents

[gaunt bay]

well i mean there are significant portions of the school that didn't get admitted because of meritocracy

so that affects the culture dramatically

[old turtle]

do the legacies still stick out "a little"?

[gaunt bay]

honestly I think legacies are a mixed bag, I personally don't throw them all into that bin

especially now, since legacy alone doesn't help as much as it used to

[old turtle]

Perhaps. But it's a bimodal distribution

maybe they're getting closer

[gaunt bay]

honestly the biggest gap on campus is who is an athlete and who isn't (they call those people "narps" nowadays I guess), and other kids desperately affiliate themselves with that circle

[old turtle]

ah, yeah. athlete/non-athlete was always pretty obvious

[gaunt bay]

that's sort of general, I think there are other smaller hierachies that are less noticeable.

especially in stem

the one benefit is that we don't have an olympiad culture like MIT does, which reduces toxicity by astronomical amounts.

[old turtle]

the stem heirarchy is like... Engineering/nonengineering -> physics + math/everyone else -> chemistry/premeds

or at least, it was that way

[gaunt bay]

it's changed I think

nowadays it's like math >>>>>>>physics >>>>> everything else for some reason

[old turtle]

nah, that's about the same

I lumped my math/physics friends together

the physics friends we a big more.... stodgy? I don't know how to describe it

[gaunt bay]

i don't think chem or premed is revered as much as math, it's really weird. Math has a very specific rep

[old turtle]

math is like more humble

cuz those math professors could crush spirits so easily

[gaunt bay]

i think math kids are humbler, but generally I think it's considered the most "hard" by students here, like this shows up in student polls etc

it's in the meme culture on campus

[old turtle]

a friend of mine told me about having nightmares post college from Alice Chang teaching analysis

[gaunt bay]

I originally came for math but I am thinking of switching to pure humanities, probably comp lit?

[old turtle]

it sounds about the same, just a little bit of a variation

[old turtle]

At least give it a chance! You have some time

[gaunt bay]

i'm pretty fried from math honestly, I hit the level I'd say I'm happy leaving it at

[old turtle]

math professor math is pretty freaking nuts

[gaunt bay]

like I started in 365 and this sem I took 550, so I might just get a math minor and leave it there.

[old turtle]

these people are literal math gods

[gaunt bay]

i am intending on taking MAT 569 next sem, hopefully it's chill

but that's def it after that

[old turtle]

you're a sophomore ... so you haven't declared yet?

[gaunt bay]

no i haven't

AB

[old turtle]

elliptic operators and topology. Sounds like what Wiles would've taught if he were still there

[gaunt bay]

where are you getting elliptic operators and topology from

[old turtle]

"syllabus for spring 2019 mat 569: elliptic operators and ..."

[gaunt bay]

no it's 2024-2025 syllabyus, it's characteristic classes next sem

[old turtle]

gotcha

Classical high dimensional manifold theory?

[gaunt bay]

not really, idk how technical I should put it but it's just like teaching how to build specific invariants (like ways to tell certain manifolds apart, since I guess you are familiar)

idk I'm taking it because it seems like a chill final class, love the prof

[old turtle]

don't fully understand it, but I'll nod my head and smile

[gaunt bay]

but I'm fully in math retirement

I think doing more stuff in literature will be interesting, especially since I get to travel and do more things

[old turtle]

is it typical to take graduate level courses as a sophomore?

[gaunt bay]

not really

[old turtle]

pull an Ed Witten and don't do math for a few years 😅

[gaunt bay]

usually like 3 or so kids in each class do that? i'm trying to count in my head how many did it in my year

at least fall semester, I think some do in spring cause of alg top

or riemann surfaces

[old turtle]

still, that's some crazy achievement

[gaunt bay]

idk once you get to top 5 math programs kids of all years take all sorts of classes, a good friend of mine from high school at harvard now took grad level first semester frosh year

[old turtle]

that makes sense. I took number theory senior year and some kid got excused the entire semester and the professor handed him a book on diophantine equations

(freshman kid)

because at least one 200-level course was a requirement for grad courses?

maybe at the time, guess not now?

[gaunt bay]

well now I think you just have to get prof permission and permission from dean

you submit this grad form thingy

[old turtle]

that's nice and streamlined

[gaunt bay]

so it's less about what you have taken but just your background

[old turtle]

My wife treats math as meditation. I struggle with notation 😅

[devout furnace]

trig makes me wanna die but otherwise math is cool

[elfin sedge]

I think I’m going to leave this server until RD decisions come out

It was nice meeting all of you!

[elfin sedge]

Bc I keep getting distracted by it 😭

[white marten]

Goated wife

[old turtle]

In person, I talk way more about her. Here I try to suppress that.

And honestly, learning to describe and market my own projects is a learning process

[halcyon hare]

Mm
Mm
So this is love
Mm
So this is love
So this is what makes life divine

[white marten]

It was sent on Thursday so any time this coming week I’d assume

Tragic that I have to wait until spring for one

No if you go to their insta

They sent the packages out already

[crimson jackal]

QHASTI IS GREEN NOW?

You're green?

[pulsar crest]

Anyone that got accepted, what time did you submit your application? Just curious

[crimson jackal]

like a day before!

lol

[pulsar crest]

I submitted mine 3 hours before and the portal said they received it a day after the deadline

[crimson jackal]

hmmm

I mean you still submitted on time

[pulsar crest]

Yeah but I just saw a post asking if the time u submit affects ur decision and obv people are saying no but I’m wondering if there could be a connection we don’t know about

So did anyone submit like <5 hours before and still get accepted?

[white marten]

I submitted a month before so I don’t think that matters

Perhaps I should have waited a little longer

Oh well

Theres about a 10% defer to accept rate per the internet soooo

[valid helm]

Lol this has no correlation

[white marten]

Plus all of my RDs are much better applications so we are hyped for March

[clear yoke]

I lit emailed them bc my SAT scores didn’t arrive by then, trust me they just add stuff to ur file then review it all when it’s received

And wait a week before doing anything

[clear yoke]

wdym

[pulsar crest]

Yeah idk what 10% defer to accept rate means

Oh

10% of deferred applicants get accepted apparently but I didn’t think that was for Princeton

[white marten]

Yes

[clear yoke]

that’s pretty good

I’ll take those odds 🤣

[white marten]

Same lol

Although I don’t think it’s a flat rate for everyone

Im sure they have notes on your file of why you were deferred and what they are looking for

[clear yoke]

Just hoping it’s one of those just deferred because we already took too many internationals or something bruh

[old turtle]

aesthetics.

[warm panther]

WE ARE FUCKING LOCKED IN FOR RD

PRINCETON IS ABOUT TO RECIEVE THE SEXIEST LOCI TO EVER GRACE THE EARTH

[white marten]

Second sexiest

Mine will be sexier

[clear yoke]

Anyone got a guide for writing a LOCI

[pulsar crest]

That’s 10% out of the REA group that didn’t get rejected

Way more competitive group than their regular applicant pool

[pliant flame]

has princeton defer been getting less common

know a bunch of ppl with crazy stats that got flat rejected

[twin adder]

this is fake

[twin adder]

LMFAOO

love your enthusiasism

[twin adder]

hmm its never been common. pton rea just rejects a lot

[twin adder]

yeah but this isnt surprising or particularly new

stats arent what pton is looking for

you should have like maybe a 3.9 and 35 act or 1550 SAT

if you want that to help you

but you can also get in with less than that or test optional if you have a compelling case

its really like whether they think you extracurriculars and work outside of school is high enough caliber and if you have something to contribute to princeton that is clear and meaningful

like the way i see it they just read your app and if they feel compelled by you, they might admit or defer

if the ao is like eh this kid is nothing special they have no problem just rejecting

[pliant flame]

what percent of deferred people get in

is there like a relative estimate

[twin adder]

they dont release data

i think like a solid amount

i know 4 in my class

but these are like my close friends

[pliant flame]

oh thats a good amt

so defer isnt a soft reject for pton

[twin adder]

nah its diff than harv and mit

[pliant flame]

ok thats good

[twin adder]

defer at yale pton and stanf are good

means you were solid

[pliant flame]

when should i send a loci by

[twin adder]

harv is really hard after deferral

but for pton and stanf its not uncommon at all

i only know one person who got harv after deferral and it was a crazy ordeal lmfaooo

she got a 2nd ao interview and all

after the deferral

[pliant flame]

wow

[twin adder]

because she had a negative letter of re

c

crazy lore

she made it! lmfaoo

[pliant flame]

so from what i understand i fprinceton didnt think ur app was solid they would hav eno problem flat out rejecting you rea

[twin adder]

just whenever before rd really

[clear yoke]

smalls can u check dm bro

cheers

[twin adder]

they reject if they dont think you are good

like

if youre just kinda a bleh applicant and they dont feel interested

you have to have a reason to get deferred

[white marten]

princegoat was interested in me but needed to see more 🙏

[old turtle]

More applications from other people 😅

[white marten]

So they can see how cool I’m am by comparison 💪

Or lame, you know, either way

[gilded bear]

For MIT it means nothing right

They defer almost everyone

[stuck summit]

you're appkying to safeties right

[white marten]

yes

my beloved University of Idaho

and Washington State University

and University of Alabama-Huntsville

I'm working very hard to fal in love with these because jokes aside, I have very low expectations for RD

[rancid lion]

chat am i getting an acceptance letter with this one

[quasi spoke]

5 days before 😭

[old turtle]

if that's how you feel then take a big swing, playa

[ionic siren]

win big don't lose small 🗣️ 🔥

[halcyon hare]

😭😭😭 lmaooo

that’s some auto-admit material right here

[candid prism]

my freshman year of hs 12 seniors went to Princeton 💀

no one does anymore tho because they wanna get out of jersey

plus i think pton cooled it on the relationship

[humble stream]

about 10 days before

[rancid lion]

about the graded paper

i uhh write alot for my in-class summative assements

like most of my papers are over 5 pages

i asked my global politics teacher for one to send bc thats my fav subject where i develop ideas

and the sent me a paper 2 which is 10 pages, got a 74% (7 in the ib) but has an unfinished conclusion in the 2nd answer

[rancid lion]

the ideas are there but idk if i should ask for a more "perfect" one

[gritty spindle]

i dont mind

for mine i just submitted an AP lang paper

[old turtle]

Yeah, there's an article in the daily princetonian about it. That and they've talked about first generation ivy and the debate about legacy in the PAW

[old turtle]

I would note that the paper submission guidelines are guidelines, not rules. Pick your best paper that showcases the quality of your writing within the guidelines and submit it. Don't stress tooo much about it. They're literally going to skim it

[clear yoke]

What sort of things are they specifically looking for

[rancid lion]

Yeah makes sense. Thanks

[rancid lion]

my counsellor told me that they are using it to look for consistency in your application

but that might not be true

[clear yoke]

Consistency in what though

[old turtle]

@rancid lion there's many potential reasons to ask for a graded paper. One might be to check to see if your class writing is consistent with your application writing. But I think the primary reason is - every student takes a writing seminar and almost every student has to write a senior thesis. They want to see that you have analytical/structured/argumentative writing skills because that is literally what you will be spending a lot of time doing

[clear yoke]

Ah okay, so it’s more so just a check box that you can write well, nothing that’ll actually give you an edge over someone else?

[old turtle]

That's my perspective on it. You can decide if its reasonable 😅

there's a lot of application to read

[clear yoke]

Sounds reasonable lol

[gaunt bay]

it should just be a PDF, like something you submitted to a teacher

i sent in an essay I wrote for AP psychology actually

[old turtle]

!princeton

[woeful loom]

Anyone get in test optional?
