Princeton University (2025-2026)

[split summit]

and i never got a reply after i confirmed i sent the money

https://tenor.com/view/chiikawa-hachiware-sad-yorokobiganai-rain-gif-15163506454461744791

ig because its so close to the holidays bu now i have no one to review them 💀

[queen current]

also do keep in mind that the princeton supps specifically are feeding you their values

they just want to see how you engage with them

they set you up to try and establish fit

[marble charm]

i feel like most schools value similar things

[queen current]

its just about how you intersect with their mission and each supp kind of allows you to do that

[queen current]

they do yes

[topaz roost]

Thats true yea

[queen current]

especially the top liberal arts colleges

(including ivies)

[marble charm]

yeah

like my "why us" essay

ive sort of just adapted to fit each college

[queen current]

they all kind of want intellectually curious students who are going to work across disciplines to change the world

for the most part

but each has a differnt lens

Princeton likes research and service a lot

Harvard maybe moreso civic leadership in an elected role per say

[split summit]

princeton is weird though cause they dont have a specific why us essay

[queen current]

the first one???

[split summit]

and of course the only thing close to why us is 500 words

[split summit]

thats why major

https://tenor.com/view/mangos-gif-2675683055078013516

[queen current]

. What academic areas most pique your curiosity, and how do the programs offered at Princeton suit your particular interests?

is that not both?

I read it as both

why major and WHY Pton specifically for it

[gilded umbra]

Yes it’s both

[queen current]

thought so lol

[gilded umbra]

hey guys i had a quick question. so what kind of essay do they want for the graded written paper??? What counts as expository writing?

For example, I had a really good one about like personal story + critiquing society through literary texts we read. Does that count?

[dreamy quarry]

My teacher didn't leave a grade specifically in the file of my graded paper--do I just put the grade as text on top of my paper's text?

[gilded umbra]

It’s supposed to be analyzing something else, not a personal essay/story. like an english paper where you talk about rhetorical devices

[gilded umbra]

oh ok alr tysm

[torn ledge]

Also how are ya'll exporting google docs

I did the html -> pdf thing

[topaz roost]

is the princeton graded paper supposed to be for something outside your major

like if im applying econ should i steer away from giving an econ paper

[open sail]

doesn't matter

just submit the highest quality piece of expository wrirting u have

[queen current]

if my teache made comments on my paper that are like literal comments in a google doc

how should I incorporate those?

and also the grade, I assume I just write that at the top of the paper?

should I just add an additional page on the google doc with her exacrt comments and the grade?

and then submit that?

[dreamy quarry]

@queen current i think this for the google doc comment thing

i'm going to include my grade at the top

[queen current]

thanks

[dreamy quarry]

no problem!

[torn ledge]

I put a cover page

I just noted it cause my teacher put my grade in a weird way

[topaz roost]

yo pton students bro

please gng

can yall check my supps

🙏

[split summit]

if anyone else needs reviewing idm swapping so we both review each others

[terse tusk]

For the 500 word one I honestly copy pasted two of my Columbia supps and did some addition 🗿

it flowed nicely

[topaz roost]

Im down

[split summit]

ok if u dont mind waiting like 20-30 mins im at the cusp of finishing the 500 word 😭💔

[topaz roost]

Bet

Are there any pton students here

Pls

[gentle onyx]

For the princeton graded paper if i submit after the deadline then for the "additional info doc" do i just make a doc and type like my teacher didnt give back the paper so thats why it was due late or just leave it blank

[split summit]

i dmed you 🙏

[split summit]

what

leave it blank

[brittle vale]

Please describe why you are interested in studying engineering at Princeton. Include any of your experiences in, or exposure to engineering, and how you think the programs offered at the University suit your particular interests. (Please respond in 250 words or fewer)

is pton asking for engineering in general or the specific field we chose

[plush relic]

hey, since princeton accepts two "other" recommenders on the common app, are we allowed to submit additional letters of recommendations besides the teacher ones there?

[rough bay]

either one

[open sail]

yup

[brittle vale]

🙏 thank u

[plush relic]

thank you!!

[bitter lark]

Just remembered that Princeton is due today 💔 ✌️

[harsh stratus]

graded essay can i use one from freshman year?

[harsh stratus]

should* i use one from freshman year

[open sail]

use whatever you think is best

typically it would be either from senior or junior year since you've had more time to grow as a writer, but it depends

so just use good judgement

does anyone know if princeton offers a grace period for letters of rec?

[tender lava]

New years resolution: submit princeton

[tender lava]

yes u get a grace period but try to get them in asap

its around a 1 week grace period

they will still try to consider after 1 week but its a gamble

[snow river]

would someone be able to look at 2 of my graded papers and see which is best?

[open sail]

sure

i mean im not a princeton student

nor a high school grad

but i can help if you want

[bitter lark]

Fr

[worn cobalt]

If I'm submitting a research paper through additional information in the application for princeton, is it possible to include another document with my responsibilities/contributions. Also, can I submit the full paper or do I submit the abstract?

[west ember]

abstract

250 word

[worn cobalt]

is this written somewhere

could you send me the link

[west ember]

no its jus what ppl submit

i submitted my abstract and included a link for my paper

and DOI on IEEE ICRA

[worn cobalt]

okay hmm

thanks

do they have guidelines

[west ember]

no

[worn cobalt]

super vague

Can you include your role/responsibilities

or not?

I know for Columbia they specifically ask for that

[split summit]

[dreamy quarry]

i dont think they want one from freshman year, but if its really good maybe they have some grace? idk

[tough imp]

Good luck to my fellow RDers applying today

[olive oasis]

i didn't start anything

[oak cliff]

real

thats why im not applying to princetno

its the one t20 im not applying to

[tough imp]

Im not applying to Dartmouth or upenn(took penn off the list bc i wouldnt fit in w the culture)

[hybrid hazel]

For the pton 500 essay whay did ppl write abt?

[split summit]

i wrote about my identity living in a rural area and how it made me think. about people in my community

should i go test optional

with 30 act

https://tenor.com/view/faceapp-makeup-stare-look-up-stan-twitter-gif-26882720

[hybrid hazel]

Thabk you

[hybrid hazel]

No imo

[split summit]

but a 30 is well under the 25th percentile

the only thing id have going for me with a 30 is that im from rural va and my school doesnt really do the act but my score is significantly above my schools average if u convert it to sat (my schools average is like a 1090)

[nimble wing]

i sent my sat scores during EA season in batch, will princeton be able to match them to my name? the applicant portal says they haven't received my scores yet (this is the first RD i'm doing so i might be asking a silly question, but just anxious)

[west ember]

I sent my 1500 which is below 25th percentile

[tender lava]

i think 1500 is the 25th percentile

at princeton

For the graded paper do I put the prompt at the top? It's like 3 sentences

[ivory hill]

Guys ummmm

What's graded written paper?

[tender lava]

yooo have u started princeton?

[ivory hill]

Yo
Ye

[tender lava]

https://admission.princeton.edu/apply/graded-written-paper

It's a graded paper from ur classroom that u submit to princeton

[open sail]

yea i oh fuck

i needa send my act scores

i hate this schoool

[ivory hill]

Fuck

[dreamy quarry]

the prompt isnt needed, right? i dont have access to mine but i also dont see it in the requirenments

[split summit]

its not needed

[distant nimbus]

Yo how cooked is it if I just sent my SAT scores? Totally missed that Princeton requires official scores

[split summit]

youre gonna be fine

[distant nimbus]

Will they have a mini grace period given the time it takes to match scores to portal?

[split summit]

yes

it would be absurd if they didnt

[split summit]

how did you guys write about why princeton

and i mean like what did you say princeton has that you want that is different than other schools

[gilded umbra]

i began with an anecdote and talked about programs they had that would help me solve the problem

i think thats the easiest way bc usually schools dont have overlapping programs

[open sail]

i also began with an anecdote and talked about how the programs would help but it wsa kinda like <anecodte> <program> <what that says about teh anecdote> <another program> <conclusion>

[split summit]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-gif-16847314810084971000

i see

[tender lava]

1 week grace period youre fine

thats confirmed from an AO

[split summit]

guys

whoever has already submitted

do you have the option to change your mind and add test scores if you went test optional

im still not sure if i want to go test optional or not yet but i want to submit my application

[golden geyser]

princeton ??

[winter hinge]

💀

[gilded umbra]

Submitted Princeton 💔

Feel like these are the worst supplements I’ve ever written

[gilded umbra]

I think on the common app you have to select whether or not you’re sending them so I don’t think so

[teal dagger]

no comment

[split summit]

that’s not what im talking about

in most my portals i have the option to change my testing preference so i was wondering if princetons portal had the same

[distant nimbus]

was it from like an interview or someone emailed?

[tender lava]

email

[bitter lark]

ngl, I haven’t started a single one of the supps, and idek what paper I could use

not sure if I should even try to apply atp ✌️

[split summit]

jus go tf to bed 😭

[distant nimbus]

lowkey i would just focus your efforts on the schools that are maybe due on the 5th i.e. Duke/UPenn instead of cramming cuz Princeton essays questiosn are so ass

[bitter lark]

Princeton is my last (if I try applying)

Done otherwise

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[split summit]

this is your last!

how good does it feel being done on jan 1st

https://tenor.com/view/fent-fentanyl-friday-fent-friday-fent-feeling-gif-16328998714765345622

[mint sky]

when is the graded written paper due?

is it due today ?

[distant nimbus]

turn it on common app

[mint sky]

i clicked later on common app

[distant nimbus]

you dont have time

you need to submit it by tonight, but if you dont do it on Capp you have to do the portal

[mint sky]

wdym 😭

[distant nimbus]

but the portal doesn't come till 1-2 days usually

[mint sky]

oh shoot

[distant nimbus]

someone can correct me if im wrong but im like 90% sure

[split summit]

what are we supposed to do then

my teacher still hasnt sent me my paper 😭

[distant nimbus]

ummm, find another paper. Anything that you can just send in. Worst case, if there isn't comments just clarify in additional info

[surreal heath]

yo for the graded paper, ive never written a paper thats 1-2 pages

theyre all like 4-5

can i submit an excerpt or what

[mint sky]

same

all the other ones are from liek 9th grade

[surreal heath]

we in this tg mud 🤞

[winter hinge]

Wait shit you're right

And I already submitted

crap

[distant nimbus]

yes its fine

they say they'll only read 1-2, but submit the whole thing

Someone sent an email to the admissions office and they said to not cut off things if they're longer than 2 pages, just that theyll only read 2. You can find this on reddit somewhere

[surreal heath]

thank you 🫶

[winter hinge]

Wait does anyone know who to email

[surreal heath]

WE are getting into Princeton

[marble charm]

My paper is 13 pages long 😭 😭 is that fine

[distant nimbus]

yes send

[marble charm]

ok

[mint sky]

erm how does princeton use the essays?

ccuz my essays are lowky ass like its just the bare minimum to get a A

[split summit]

idk im just gonna have to wait and email 😭

or i guess ill just submit with no comments

[mint sky]

saw this post on reddit so maybe it will be fine?

https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/190ahim/should_i_submit_princeton_graded_written_paper/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

[split summit]

I hope…

does this seem like an appropriate follow up😭

Like i feel really bad for bothering. but i told him the deadline was jan 1st😭

[winter hinge]

idk

I'm trying to figure out what to do right now

I guess I should just send the graded paper via email?

[split summit]

that Reddit post says u can submit it likd up to a week after jan 1st

I don’t think k u should email

[winter hinge]

On the other hand, the potential issues that arise if I can't submit up to a week after January 1st

[split summit]

what issues

[surreal heath]

do we have to submit official SAT scores through collegeboard

now?

[deep helm]

yes

[surreal heath]

but do they acc need to be in by the 1st

[deep helm]

no

just send it now though

[tough imp]

Just submitted to Princeton!!

[surreal heath]

ok also how do we find out what other schools require scores

is there like a wbesite to see

[olive oasis]

going to submit this late lmfao

[west ember]

jus check the policies

[plush relic]

if my princeton graded paper is hand written, should i type it up? the handwriting is not super messy but would def be easier to read typed

[split summit]

if you have the time

but ngl

i wouldnt waste your time with that

[queen current]

I just submitted and realized I left out in awards (my least "prestigious") award, that I was published in my city's local paper for an op-ed

is that like worth emailing admissions over or no?

idk why I just thought about it since it was in Sophomore year

[deep helm]

I'm abt to submit but wondering about this too

[split summit]

bruh i just reviewed my application 60 fucking times and stil ended submitting this 😭

[queen current]

I did too

[deep helm]

I have a hand-written paper that's 2.5 pages w/ a rubric

or a typed paper w/ more comments but it's just over 3 pages and no rubric

[queen current]

I reviewed it like 30 times

and I think I had a minor typo

I think like p much everyone does

[split summit]

https://tenor.com/view/minor-spelling-mistake-thanos-thanos-snap-dust-gif-16037423944121739362

im devastated

[queen current]

I was going insane proof reading ts omfg

[split summit]

i put it through grammarly too...... how did it not catch that

[olive oasis]

😭

[deep helm]

How do i compress my file down to less than 2000 kb 💀

It's not letting me upload the graded paper bc my file is too big

[split summit]

you google 'compress pdf'

[deep helm]

I did but it's making me pay to compress it

I guess I have to look for another one

is it normal to have these huge paragraph breaks when reviewing the pdf??

[split summit]

no

[deep helm]

wth i literally made sure there were only one space apart

[split summit]

with no space in the middle

commonapp automatically adds a space

[deep helm]

Oh thank you

[dreamy quarry]

oh 💀

broo i added spaces bc in the common app that looked better 😭

welp ig ill know now

[hybrid hazel]

erm does anyones pdf show up after submitting ot princeton?

mine isn't showing TOT

[olive oasis]

it takes a few minutes for it to show up

[hybrid hazel]

Thank you

I submitted at 13 seconds after 12

so I was worried

[olive oasis]

i havent even submitted princeton yet lmao

😭

im still doing columbia

[deep helm]

SAME

I just did pton

but im in central time so i have like 45 mins

[olive oasis]

[hybrid hazel]

[hybrid hazel]

Don't give up 🫶🏽

[pale compass]

[tender lava]

to switch timezones

[queen current]

we cannot be deadass

[snow river]

....

guys

pls

anyone

[tender lava]

I hope so but there wasnt anything on the common app that said so

[queen current]

here i foinud something

"Documents (for example, additional academic information, research papers, etc.) should not be uploaded with your arts supplement. You may upload those materials through the additional information section of the application or on your Princeton Applicant Status Portal"

so yes were good

once we get access to the portal we can upload a research paper

[tender lava]

wait WW

I'm going to do that when i get the portal

[queen current]

same

should we be doing an abstract or the full thing?

and im also curious like if youre not the number 1 author is it stil fine to upload it?

[open sail]

heh im cooked for pton

[split summit]

i just got my portal

[open sail]

it says absract on the portal

[hybrid hazel]

I haven't gotten mine 😭

[eager matrix]

me either dw

[tender lava]

yes its still fine to upload I think we shuld just submit an abstract

is urs like a publication or conference abstract

[gilded umbra]

Does it show your guys’ test scores as not received right now

[tender lava]

my score sent today and I ordered rush on monday

[gilded umbra]

I sent mine in like November 😭

[tender lava]

oh u mean in the portal?

[gilded umbra]

Yes

[tender lava]

is there a sat/act spot in the checklist?

[tender lava]

?? does ts work

they have ur address and stuff so idk

[distant nimbus]

it'll take a few days to match

on mine it says like anything thats sent between 31st and 4th, they're gunna upload soon - my scores just got sent today

[gilded umbra]

Oh okay

[tender lava]

how long did it take for yall to get the portal?

[dreamy quarry]

yayy im glad it finally came

[hexed scarab]

do i have to submit official SAT scores to Princeton?

[distant nimbus]

really quick, i submitted yesterday at 8 and got it at 10 tody

[distant nimbus]

yes

[hexed scarab]

oh

but i already submitted my application

is now too late?

[distant nimbus]

doesn't matter

do it

rush order

[hexed scarab]

i see! thank u

[distant nimbus]

if you're lucky they get sent by monday, and you'll be fine. There's a ~1 week grace so asap

[hexed scarab]

also, my School Report and LORs appear in my Yale checklist but not Princeton

why is that

[hexed scarab]

i see thank u

[tender lava]

wait i submitted mine last night and didnt get it

im CT time zone

[hexed scarab]

i have a dumb question but if i wanna superscore do i send the two results

[distant nimbus]

eh its probably fine, 24-48 hours. as long as you paid dont stress about that

[distant nimbus]

yes

[hexed scarab]

i can't selectively pick which score i want right?

[distant nimbus]

you can

[hexed scarab]

alsooo does Columbia, Harvard and brown accept self-reporting if anyone knows

[tender lava]

yes they do

princeton is like the only top school that doesnt

[hexed scarab]

THANK YOU

also do you have an idea why my School Transcript & Report and LORs are only received by Yale?

[alpine oxide]

takes a few days sometimes for portals to update

especially right around the deadline

[hexed scarab]

yeah because on the common app it says downloaded

[alpine oxide]

i mean here is princeton's notice

[tender lava]

im lowkey scared they didnt get my application in time but idk

i submitted 5 min before 1159 in my time zone

[alpine oxide]

ur fine then

[hexed scarab]

what i meant is i send them four scores and they pick the highest two right?

like i can't do it like the common app where i send only the highest two

[tender lava]

they will superscore for u

[alpine oxide]

you send the 2 single-sitting tests that u wanna superscore

[snow widget]

hi

[olive oasis]

hi lava

[snow widget]

are people crashing out over the portal

[alpine oxide]

yes

[snow widget]

this is why u dont submit ur app on the day its due

[tender lava]

im crashing out abt not getting the portal

yet

[snow widget]

it takes a bit dw

how long has it been

[tender lava]

I mean its kinda expected bc I submitted 5 minutes before the deadline ☠️

[olive oasis]

i'm submitting today 💀

[tender lava]

uhhh what

do they still consider u if u submit a bit late

[olive oasis]

hopefully they do 😭

[snow widget]

probably but not a guarantee

i think they have a grace period but idk if that's for the main application or just the supporting documents

[tender lava]

good luck 😭

[hexed scarab]

no actually i'm pretty much zen

what's supposed to happen will happen 🧘‍♂️

[hybrid hazel]

same

[tender lava]

when did u submit

[hybrid hazel]

13 seconds after 12

bc my stupid laptop for common app stopped loading

so i had to log onto my phone under 2 mins

[tender lava]

12 ET or your local time

I think u should be fine tho

[olive oasis]

are you guys excited for ivy day.

[tender lava]

Lowkey yeah

I got 4 schools that day

[dreamy quarry]

i am very very nervous

but at least itll all be over

[hybrid hazel]

est is my local time!

[chilly merlin]

Anyone else officially submit SAT scores to princeton several weeks ago but still seeing stuff like this in my portal? Did I do something wrong? Should I be resending my scores?

[mint sky]

no

scary

[gilded umbra]

I also sent mine way back and they’re not updated, they’re probably not processed yet

[chilly merlin]

Cool good to hear I’m not alone here

You aren’t stressing about it and resubmitting right? Seems uneeded

I’ll call on Monday if they haven’t processed I suppose

[gilded umbra]

nope

[alpine oxide]

it takes time for everything to "match up" in their system, so they probably have the scores but i imagine it'll take a few days for EVERYONE's scores to match up to their portal bc of how many ppl apply close to the deadline

[queen current]

I wrote about severance in my princeton app

had to let u know

[alpine oxide]

w

[chilly merlin]

Haha that’s amazing

[chilly merlin]

Yeah just seems a bit odd considering I sent my scores a while ago and every other school has it matched but ig it makes sense

[alpine oxide]

when did u submit the commonapp?

[chilly merlin]

31st at 5pm ish

So 48+ hours ago

Didn’t get portal till next morning though

[alpine oxide]

i think they said up to 72 hours for items to process

[chilly merlin]

Yeah they did

So if I don’t see by end of tomorrow ill do something ig

[queen current]

Yeah I did it for the song and I did the 5 minute dance break to defiant jazz lol

[bleak kite]

does princeton care about additional letters of rec or is it doing too much

[chilly merlin]

That’s funny

I did a song called pushin by nikko

[teal dagger]

it depends on if they’re good letters or not

if your 3rd or 4th are just ok, don’t submit them just to say you have more letters

they just care that your letters are quality

[chilly merlin]

Yeah exactly they don’t want more teachers

[bleak kite]

yep thankss

and also when is the graded essay due i checked no in commonapp 😭

i saw some tiktok propaganda saying its due 1 day after the deadline so im kinda scared

[split summit]

i have literally gone through 3 different teachers to get my graded paper and i still haven’t gotten it 😭

ig im just gonna have to submit it at the end of the day today without comments

[sand anvil]

So my SAT scores have been sent from CB, but on my Princeton application portal checklist it still says “not received”

Does it generally take a bit of time for them to show if it’s received on the checklist? I just wanna make sure my SAT scores were submitted

[west ember]

Yea same problem with me, I submitted mine in october and still doesn't show submitted

[pliant willow]

colleges usually take 1-2 weeks to receive the score from collegeboard

but it should be fine even if it arrives a bit late

even if they do start reviewing your app before they receive your official score they'll just presume that the score you self reported on your application is the score you legitimately got.

[sand anvil]

Thank you!

[alpine oxide]

even though they have the score in their system, it needs to "match" with all your other documents and application- this takes time and especially more time right around the deadline

[tender lava]

lol bro I have an x mark on everything in the checklist except for graded paper and transcript

[hybrid hazel]

I finally got my portal

[viscid cloud]

Does anyone know if aos see the music personal statement for the arts supplement

Or can I reuse stuff I said in my commonapp

[snow widget]

doubtful

[hybrid hazel]

I'm so fried i just logged onto my portal and it says submitted on 1/2

for the optional section theres a drop down for research abstract so we just upload the abstract and that's it?

[west ember]

yup

[tender lava]

same

but i submitted on the 1st in my local time zone

lol

[eager matrix]

dw

mine got submitted today

i submitted 3 days ago

[distant nimbus]

Anyone still waiting for test scores to be checked off on the portal?

[chrome hatch]

i am too lol

also does anyone have experience with having your reccomenders like email the ltter directly 😭

[snow widget]

To you?

Or to admissions

[chrome hatch]

no directly to the ao

just like when it shows up in the portal, cuz I only have 1/2 checked off rn

[snow widget]

Did you submit it through common all

App*

[chrome hatch]

yeah

[snow widget]

The recommendation

[chrome hatch]

no we have like a third party thing

[tender lava]

is this bad? I submitted on 1/1 in my time zone but it says 1/2 here

[eager matrix]

mine says 1/3

its fine

[queen current]

I'll have to give this a listen

[chilly merlin]

its bass house idk if you will be a fan lmao

i explained it well i think

[queen current]

its because all of their systems record everything in eastern time

its completely fine

[rough bay]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/1q2fqtd/if_you_dont_get_a_princeton_interview/
is ts real or a hoax?

[alpine oxide]

real

[olive oasis]

hi Matthew

😭

[alpine oxide]

hi

[olive oasis]

I did not submit Princeton lmao I wonder if it’s still open

[alpine oxide]

everyone from my school that applied rea (3) got one- 2 got rejected and i got deferred. its no indication of ur application strength

[olive oasis]

(I was preoccupied with Columbia only for the deadline to be extended)

[alpine oxide]

they assign based on region

[alpine oxide]

i heard smth on reddit abt an extension- idk if its true but its worth a shot lmao

[olive oasis]

Yeah definitely 😭

I saw that common app prevents people from submitting if it closes

I saw that it happened for Harvard

[alpine oxide]

my interviewer was from my county, but as you get farther from new jersey its probably based on state/country if ur international

[hybrid hazel]

Me with pton

[olive oasis]

Didn’t you submit it?

[hybrid hazel]

Yes

But my laptop screen

Didn't load

So I had to use my phone

[pliant willow]

It’s also very geographically dependent

[hybrid hazel]

So if my area fkr instance has no one who's ever gone to pton

I'm probs not getting an interview

Same for any ivy school

[pliant willow]

Usually they’ll send you an email first if there’s an educational counselor that’s in proximity

[pliant willow]

that just isn’t true lol

hell of a hasty generalization to assume that you won’t get in just because no one at your school ever has

[hybrid hazel]

No no I meant for interviews

Like if no one in my town

[alpine oxide]

it wont be based on ur town

[pliant willow]

Ohhh

My fault

[alpine oxide]

probably your state

unless you live in nj bc their admissions regions are by county

[hybrid hazel]

Ngl when I looked at the link nc wasn't up there

[eager matrix]

think about it too, it would be practically impossible if they went by city. the chance each city has an alum is very low

[hybrid hazel]

😭

[pliant willow]

Honestly yeah because if they can’t offer you an in-person they’ll just refer you to a zoom meeting

[rough bay]

im literally in the northeast shouldnt they have hella interviewers

[alpine oxide]

im wrong actually- some other states have officers for specific counties/cities. namely: ny, illinois, california, and florida

[pliant willow]

Where did you apply early

Oh wait nvm

[rough bay]

?

why does that matter

[pliant willow]

Not entirely

They send out interviews individually by state

[alpine oxide]

i didnt get my interview until like a week after the deadline

u can get it whenever

[pliant willow]

They usually don’t send out interviews until post deadline

[alpine oxide]

one of my friends got one a week ago

for rd

[pliant willow]

But honestly people put too much weight on receiving interviews when it really isn’t indicative of anything

[alpine oxide]

^^^

[eager matrix]

r princeton interviews evaluative?

[alpine oxide]

its a 30-45 minute informal conversation- it really has no impact unless ur a huge jerk to the interviewer

[eager matrix]

nono ik but r they evaluative

in the process

does the interview give u a score

[pliant willow]

Yeah it can strengthen your app but by no means will it hurt you at all

[pliant willow]

Yeah

[eager matrix]

ok cool

[tender lava]

was the interview virtual or in person alumni interview

[alpine oxide]

it can be either

my interviewer was from my area but is studying somewhere else, so mine was on google meet

[tough imp]

How long did it take after your application to get an email from your interviewer

[alpine oxide]

i applied october 18th, i got the email on november 6th

keep in mind the rea deadline is nov 1st so idk if its based on the deadline or application date

it also depends on ur region - apparently some regional chairs are faster than others according to the reddit thread posted here earlier today

[viscid cloud]

would it be fine if i self reported a score higher than my original score send and just sent the updated score report today via rush

[eager matrix]

i would

i think u have a few days to get everything in

[tender lava]

Is it worth it to upload my resume to princeton in the portal? Or would they likely not have time to look at it

[pliant willow]

Did you actually get the score you reported

If so that’s fine otherwise I’d let them know immediately via email

[viscid cloud]

Ye I did lmao

[pliant willow]

Oh yeah that’s fine

I’m not sure you need to send it via rush thought but if money isn’t a problem go ahead

[pliant willow]

Upload asap

[west ember]

How r ppl already getting interview requests

Like damn

[tender lava]

That’s insane 😭😭

Prolly pre screen idk

[torn ledge]

It’s a per availability basis rolling out by state

They’re just mobilising alumni to try and get as many kids as possible

Interview assignments have nothing to do with the content of ur app

[tough imp]

Has anyone gotten their sat/act scores reported as recieved in their portal yet? Ik they're still processing some things but im curious

[west ember]

nope

[chilly merlin]

nope

[bright comet]

I have a friend (admitted REA) who submitted nov 1 and got interview nov 24, and another friend who didn't even get an interview - and we're in the most dense city in the country

when or if you get an interview has no criterion validity on your outcome

[tender lava]

yes

it shows they received mine in the portal

[eager matrix]

just got mine

[tough imp]

When did you guys send yours?

[eager matrix]

the 23rd

[next cairn]

Guys I’m so scared for my interview

Any tips?

🥹

[distant nimbus]

1/1

but it got delivered on 1/2 (miraculously)

[west ember]

u already got urs?

AND U APPLIED RD?

[next cairn]

Yes

[hybrid hazel]

just depends on ur region

[tough imp]

Anyone in the midwest get an interview request yet?

[hybrid hazel]

I dont live there so I'm not sure

[tough imp]

Oop didnt mean to @ you sorry

[snow widget]

just be a real person

the interview shouldn't be that serious

it's a good opportunity to learn about the school

[trim mesa]

is there a high chance i wont get an interview if im in ny..

[alpine oxide]

expect questions like "why princeton" and "why major"

obviously dont prewrite ur responses but have a good answer besides "princeton good" or "this major makes money"

there's gonna be personality questions abt books ur reading, movies ur watching, or hobbies ur interested in - just answer honestly about stuff that you're passionate abt, dont try to seem "intelligent" in those answers bc they'll see right through that

also ask questions abt princeton and their experience - alumni love talking abt that and its a good chance to learn more abt the school

and obv be cordial, and thank the interviewer for their time

and try to just be calm- i was very visibly nervous and my interviewer pointed it out 😭

[next cairn]

Thanks!

[tender lava]

did u get deferred?

[alpine oxide]

yes

[tender lava]

oh not bad

still got RD

[alpine oxide]

yea

[chilly merlin]

Sent mine on the 16th and still hasn’t gone through I’m so stressed abt it lmao

[daring linden]

it’s not rlly a big deal lol

my sat score report was 4 weeks late

dw abt it

as long as u sent it, ur good

[hard finch]

why is there this option?

are undergrads allowed to send?

[tender lava]

yes u are allowed to

[tender lava]

princeton is a renowned research institution

[hard finch]

oh you are??!

shoot i shouldve done that

too late now proly

lol i mean i applied ea

but i didnt do that the first time either

[west ember]

yes

did u get in rea

[hard finch]

i got deferred lol

lowk should i still upload it

or is it too late

[mint sky]

Do u just submit abstract or add info on other authors and stuff too

[hard finch]

just abstract i think

they only want the paragraph

wait lowk theres 2 kinds of abstracts

like the longo ne too

[chilly merlin]

Ok cool thanks

[marble charm]

an alumni reached out to me who lives nearby to schedule an interview! is this a good sign or does everyone get this opportunity?

[eager matrix]

i think only yale does interviews based off ur app

princeton + harvard try and get everyone they can

[daring linden]

if it gives you the option, may as well

[trim mesa]

yea i got an interview offer too but they havent contacted me yet

[west ember]

FOR RD?

[west ember]

for rd?

[trim mesa]

yes

[west ember]

bro howwww

fuh

when did u get ur portal

[trim mesa]

2nd

[west ember]

i got mine then too

does the interview thingy show on ur portal?

or smth

did u get a mail?

@trim mesa

[trim mesa]

email

[west ember]

oh

[snow widget]

interviews offered purely based on availability

Nobody has read ur app yet probably

[trim mesa]

do the interviewers read our app or nah

[snow widget]

no

[trim mesa]

ouhhh

r the interviewers usually aligned with you rmajor

[eager matrix]

sometimes but idk if princeton does

i think duke does

[trim mesa]

ouhh cause i searched my interviewer up and he seems pretty aligned to mine

[eager matrix]

maybe idk

[snow widget]

once again probably based on availability

if they only got a handful of alumni in your region then whoever is coordinating interviews has limited options

so it's up to their discretion most likely

[alpine oxide]

id imagine they try to? my interviewer was closely aligned with my major

but probably not be their first priority

[eager matrix]

the chance of getting a gender studies alumna

they will prob pair me with other choice

geoscience

[next cairn]

My interview was so very well🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

[west ember]

U alr had ur interview???

Bruh i haven't even gotten my request

[next cairn]

You will get it

But if not I think that’s fine too

[marble charm]

gotcha! thx!

[olive oasis]

i wonder if i'll get my portal lmao

[daring linden]

dont sweat it

i didnt get my interview request until feb 7

i just went and checked my email 💀

if you're from a particularly rural area or youre intl, you may not even get an interview

[distant nimbus]

For submitting abstracts, can we just attach the first page of a research paper?

[hard finch]

yes

i dont think they want long form bastracts

[terse tusk]

college borad said it sent official scores today but my pton portal hasn't reflected the change

is this a concern

also can i submit my graded written paper by the 10th

[snow widget]

I mean it was due a week ago

[terse tusk]

they gave an option to submit after the deadline through the portal

cuz my teachers taking super long

[snow widget]

You should just submit as soon as you have it

It’ll probably be fine

Technically everything was due the 1st

But they have a buffer for late materials

[olive oasis]

I got my portal and I submitted yesterday 😭

[terse tusk]

true,

ok thx

[alpine oxide]

should be fine - should update in a day or so

[terse tusk]

gotcha thx

[trim mesa]

is anyone going to the interview in person

[hybrid hazel]

Oh shit I got an email for an alumni interview

[west ember]

DUDDEEE I WANT ONE

[bleak kite]

hi for the princeton graded essay

do the teachers comments have to be super detailed?

like to what extent

my teacher is asking what they need

[alpine oxide]

nothing crazy

[open sail]

I assume the more detailed the better but it isn’t a hard requirement

[alpine oxide]

just how they'd typically grade

[open sail]

Princeton will still read the graded essay regardless so it’s really their judgement of your work

[alpine oxide]

theyre really more looking at quality of writing, not just the comments and grade

[open sail]

Do u mind if I see ur graded essay

I’m lwk curious what other ppl submitted

[bleak kite]

my teacher is so slow w it 😭

im kinda panicking i mgith get it submitted super late

[tender lava]

U don’t have to request anywhere right?

[alpine oxide]

it lowk has my full name and my teachers name it so sorry no

but it was an ap lang ra, it has the prompt, passage, my essay with a few comments, and the rubric

ill dm u some screenshots if i can find some that dont have personal info

[open sail]

no worries you're good

[hybrid moss]

is it fine if you only included a grade & no comments 😢

[open sail]

Yes

[hybrid hazel]

Wdym??

[tender lava]

like alumni interview I don't remember we had to put yes or no anywhere on the common app

[tender lava]

nvm I put yes on the common app

[median quiver]

the teacher had the prompt on paper and we typed it and she printed the typed response and graded wit her pen btw the prompt paper was thrown in the trash

[clever blade]

Bruh that question is so micky mouse. As long as it’s coherent (preferably you got some sort of A on it), you’re chillin.

[distant nimbus]

If we uploaded an optional file to the portal, is there a way to delete it?

[distant nimbus]

If on Common App, it says an optional LOR has been downloaded, do i need to resubmit it through my Princeton portal. I see there isn't a checkbox for optional LORs in the checklist

[median quiver]

wtv i didnt apply cuz those supps were heavy

on top of harvard & columbia deadlines that same day lmao 😭

if they extend the deadline i might reconsider doing princeton lmao

cuz i got less schools now

[olive oasis]

Check if it’s still open lmao

[hybrid hazel]

This level of procrastination is insane

[proud shell]

Any tips on Princeton interview ?

[alpine oxide]

here's a screenshot of what i said here a few weeks ago - might be helpful

[hybrid hazel]

Ty

[daring linden]

tbh it’s pretty much a standard interview

just look up princeton interview questions on reddit to get an idea

[bleak kite]

typically when do u get a princeton interview and when do i start worrying

[snow widget]

Some people get them quickly, some don’t, and some don’t get it at all

It really depends on your region’s availability

There’s no point where you should really be worried about it bc it’s purely availability based

[split summit]

its soley based on availability not wether your application is good or bad

i remember reading about how they wish they could give every applicant an interview

but it comes down to location etc

[terse tusk]

I finally got a hold on my graded paper and submitted everything, phew

[tender lava]

what if you live in a big city that defninitely has plenty of alumni

[snow widget]

Then you’re probably more likely to get one

But bigger city means more applicants so 🤷

[tender lava]

and if we don't get one in a bigger city is that a bad sign?

[snow widget]

With all due respect

Did you not read what I just said

[snow widget]

^

[tender lava]

yeah I read but I assumed that since I'm in a larger city there should be more availability

but again I'm just overthinking lol

[snow widget]

this is

probably a true statement

[daring linden]

don’t rlly overthink it

they give out interviews until mid february ish

maybe even past that

i got mine on feb 7

also not getting an interview doesn’t detract from the rest of your application

it can help you but not getting one doesn’t harm you

it’s only based on availability (which mainly applies to rural and intl students, not necessarily students in large urban settings like u)

[tender lava]

yeah the only reason I'm overthinking is cuz I deferred from harvard rea with no interview

but I shoudln't assume it makes a difference

[daring linden]

i got into a bunch of schools without an interview ngl

the only one i can think of is upenn rn

but there were a few

[tender lava]

thats reassuring to hear thank u

[tender lava]

dang u got into penn and princeton

W

[deep helm]

ik i alr submitted but would any current princeton student be willing to read my personal statement?

[teal dagger]

is your personal statement being used for other schools?

[deep helm]

yes

[hybrid moss]

yeah same problem with me

im not sure if i should re-upload the optional rec on the portal

[next cairn]

If it says downloaded it should be on there

I wouldn’t worry

[distant nimbus]

Anyone get a Princeton interview yet?

[terse tusk]

Is it true that Princeton might ask for the entire research paper before desicions, if they think my submitted abstract looks good?

[distant nimbus]

never heard of that before tbh

[vagrant marlin]

yep

[terse tusk]

saw someone from harvard receive that request, interesting

ok thx

its not thaaat big of a deal anyways

[distant nimbus]

i wouldn't overthink it, many people submit papers

even if that's true for princeton, i would guess a VAST majority haven't ever recieved that request

[terse tusk]

bet, thanks

[daring linden]

not rlly unless they need further clarification

[queen current]

got my princeton interview but its virtual

does anyone have any tips??

I've never done a college interview b4 😭

[tough imp]

Check the interviews channel there should be something pinned

[exotic knot]

yepp

j based on availability so wont mean much if you get/dont get

[daring linden]

look up princeton interview questions on reddit

you’ll find a few from past years

these aren’t verbatim (interviewers will ask completely different things and it’ll be more like a conversation rather than questions) but they give you a good idea of things you might be expected to have an answer for

i personally prepared like 4-5 stories that i knew showed growth, initiative, etc. and i practiced applying those stories to different questions

if you like having a more structured response, maybe look into STAR (situation, task, action, result)

my princeton interview was also virtual but it lasted about 45 mins

[queen current]

Do you think it went well? And also do you think it helped your file out a lot if you had to guess?

[split summit]

a princeton interviewer just did an ama on reddit

https://www.reddit.com/r/ApplyingToCollege/comments/1q8alid/ama_ive_been_a_princeton_alumni_interviewer_for/

i would assume its real.... but im just seeing they removed it and idk why

[snow widget]

something tells me theyr'e saying stuff they're not supposed to

[split summit]

https://tenor.com/view/jump-splung-isopod-pill-bug-splunger-gif-9881034165724042273

idk what this is implying

im not sure if its real but i enjoyed some of the advice i read on it so i would rather share it in case

[olive oasis]

their posts are all hidden

and the username

😭

[split summit]

idk what happened but earlier their post history was there 😭

[olive oasis]

i guess they turned it off then

[split summit]

i dont really care about the username i would care more abt the quality of their advice and comments

i wouldnt expect someone to make a new account to make that post

[daring linden]

i thought my interview went fine, he was very interesting and we had a meaningful conversation. he was a bit dry tho

i don’t think this helped a lot for my file or wtv

[snow widget]

there are people that say they only do alumni interviews to give the alumni something to do to still feel connected to princeton

lmao

my interviewer was like 80 bro

He was telling me about how princeton still only admitted men when he went 💀

[daring linden]

MINE TOO

mine was like 75

he was the ceo of some random ahh hedge fund 😭

richie rich

[snow widget]

there's no way these ppl know shit about our school still

[olive oasis]

bro was bored

[copper tartan]

should I mention that I recently won a scholarship for my loci? idk what to put in there tbh

[hybrid hazel]

The pfaa had so many questions omg

[teal dagger]

god bless pfaa though

[hybrid hazel]

Hopefully i get some type of aid 😅

[teal dagger]

(household income - 150000)/4 is roughly how much you pay per year

lots of aid

[hybrid hazel]

Omg wait I just did it

I'd get a decent amount of aid

[daring linden]

if your family owns their own business or they have a lot of assets (ie your home, land, etc), that’s something to consider

getting fin aid from princeton was a battle for me because my parents own their own business

but truly, princeton is the most generous school in terms of fin aid

i was initially offered no aid by princeton and i kept appealing and bothering the financial aid office until they gave me like 60k in aid 😭😭😭😭

[hybrid hazel]

Omg

[hybrid hazel]

They dont have any of that

[queen current]

go you lol

[worn cobalt]

oh i got an interview email

does this mean they didn't filter me out because of academics and stuff at least?? lol

[snow widget]

no it doesn't mean anything

[worn cobalt]

but why would they give an interview to people they know are academically unqualified

doesnt that look bad for the school asw

[snow widget]

bc interviews are based on availability

nobody has read your app when they send out interviews

[worn cobalt]

not even the filters/automated tools that do all the stats analysis

[worn cobalt]

yeah true

[snow widget]

every application gets read im pretty sure

[worn cobalt]

i thought it would mean a tiny thing though js bcz it doesnt make sense to give an interview to someone totally unqualified

[worn cobalt]

but the ones way below par get a quick skim through instead

of a deeper dive

[tough imp]

Y'all i want my interview request

[snow widget]

yeah probs

[tough imp]

My twin already got one 😭💀

[worn cobalt]

its scary once u get one though

bcz u have to prepare

[tough imp]

Thats fair but lowk im looking forward to it

I want to chat w someone to find out more abt princeton

[worn cobalt]

i got someone

with electrical engineering

[tough imp]

If im going there i want to know what it's like

[worn cobalt]

background

[alpine oxide]

what is it about the application process that makes high school students unable to read 😭 there will be multiple sources that say getting an interview means nothing and then ppl will try to argue against that (this isnt directed at any one person but just in general)

[worn cobalt]

nah i thought it meant nothing too

but then someone convinced me it meant something simply bcz they definitely filter based on academics partially even if it means little

[tough imp]

Ppl wanna believe what they wanna believe ig (or ppl just being anxious abt the process)

[worn cobalt]

but who knows i mean

[tough imp]

When in doubt, check the website

[snow widget]

A lot of ppl are understandably anxious about the process but that usually leads to people grasping at straws to make themselves feel better

which is like

a natural reaction

but it's a pattern

[worn cobalt]

yes yes

[alpine oxide]

i guess

[worn cobalt]

cope

somewhat

[tough imp]

what helped me is realizing no matter how much research u do theres literally nothing concrete u can learn to say "yeah im getting in"or "yeah im getting rejected"

Theres a whole lotta uncertainty with the process (and "holistic review" is the vaguest term ever)

[alpine oxide]

i just assumed rejection back in the rea round lol

a deferral was a pleasant surprise

[worn cobalt]

yeah i agree its totally random

[tough imp]

A deferral from a top school is impressive imo, much better than a straight up rejection

U still have a chance RD

[alpine oxide]

for a few more months i get to say "i wasn't rejected by the #1 school in the country"

[worn cobalt]

• you'll probably be competitive at other top schools

[alpine oxide]

ignore my typos lmao i was at mun conference all weekend

[alpine oxide]

hopefully

the standout extracurricular that i believe got me out of the reject pile was something local in nj, so they might have found it more impressive than a school outside of nj will

idk tho

its holistic review so it could have been anything

[onyx stratus]

ayee i got my pton interview

idk if its in person or virtual

prob virtual i alreasdy like looked up my interviewer i think shes in cali

aw man

[oak cliff]

Fried

[split summit]

https://tenor.com/view/ohio-ishowspeed-tweaking-gif-15588474007810322935

you just reminded me to do my fin aid thank u so much.

cause i forgot abt their ncm bullshit

[wooden copper]

i havent gotten a interview req am i fried

[tepid radish]

Hey, so I'm thinking of Princeton as my first choice, mostly for the big undergraduate focus & the fact it's more "study-grind" than the others ivies, so probably will use my EA on this, but how is life at pton? How are dorms, etc, is there anything I should know?

[boreal ivy]

same lmfao

[west lance]

we're super behind schedule

also interviewer assignments are rolling and dependent on region

nyc is backed up and hasnt started interviewing but nj has

[tough imp]

Do you know anything abt how things are going for the midwest region?

[west lance]

no clue lol

[tough imp]

Got it

[ripe sable]

yo

[ripe sable]

carmel high schol?

[ripe sable]

@craggy pivot @alpine cave @boreal ivy @oak cliff @onyx stratus @stable depot @boreal ivy
these guys got into princeton right? i'm p sure they can help

also can anyone send the interview resoruces

i can't seem to find them

[snow widget]

u did not have to mass ping like that 💀

[tough imp]

Nope

[stable depot]

No we did not

[alpine oxide]

here's my interview tips that i sent a few weeks ago

[ripe sable]

oh super sorry my firend told me you did

[snow widget]

i feel like the interview experience isn't standardized that much

like even what matthew sent is different than what i was asked

[ripe sable]

yea fas

fax bro

ur the goat @snow widget

[alpine oxide]

this too- but i did corroborate other's experiences into those tips

i was never actually asked "why princeton" 😭

[hybrid hazel]

Pton eating clubs are so expensive omg

Idk why but I thought it would be free

😭

[frosty wasp]

Often, a deferral means that the committee would like to see your senior year academic performance. Please be sure the Mid-Year Report is sent to us as soon as your mid-year grades are available. Please note that we do not require any additional information or recommendations. However, if you have additional information to share, please send it to our office by the end of January.

Does this mean I should send the loci to the email address for the whole admissions office? Or my regional admissions officer?

There's an admission officer I've met before who told me to contact him whenever, and I'd prefer to contact him since we've talked before...but he's not even my regional admissions officer so...:(

[open sail]

That’s fine

[frosty wasp]

to email the AO I met before or...?

[open sail]

to the one you met before

also where did u get the info above

teh deferall means seniro year academic perforamcne

[frosty wasp]

it was on my deferral letter

[frosty wasp]

yeah I'm also sending them my mid-year report if that's what you're referring to

[alpine oxide]

the "to our office" is a hyperlink to the admissions portal - so that makes me think if we need to upload it to the additional information

my friend last year emailed it to her AO she was fine

[frosty wasp]

Yeah that’s true:/ it just doesn’t say on the admissions portal site what to do with the loci so I’m confused lol

Did you also get deferred?

[deep helm]

someone at my school who applied to pton has gotten an interview request and i havent yet 🥀 does that mean anything

[daring linden]

no

[radiant crescent]

interviews are basically to keep alumni engaged for donations

dw it doesnt matter that much

[alpine oxide]

yeah

[rancid condor]

Oh they are 😭 theyre prob cheaper than the uni’s plans tho

Oh wait theyre not that kinda sucks

[deep helm]

do most princeton students in eating clubs just not eat in the dining halls much then?

[rancid condor]

Yea ig not i think some get underclassmen friends to swipe them in every now and then

Eating club food prolly better tho but being located at a specific time and place is prob a lil annoying

[deep helm]

yeah and the clubs are all on one street that's not super central to campus

whereas the dining halls are embedded in the residential colleges

[snow widget]

correct

[snow widget]

not that big of a deal

u get used to it

[snow widget]

depends on the eating club but generally speaking yea it's better

[hybrid hazel]

The food looked so tasty

[gilded umbra]

i did not get a princeton interview. am i cooked?

it seems people from my school did

you know, it would be really funny if there was an interview but it went into my spam

I checked my spam just to make sure. There was nothing. 🙁

[alpine oxide]

interviews are based on alumni availability and not candidate qualifications

[golden geyser]

no

[alpine oxide]

getting or not getting an interview is not indicative of anything besides the fact that there was an alum available in your general region

[gilded umbra]

oh ok ty for letting me know

[coral cobalt]

wait yeah same the people in our school got interviews but i didnt

it might be bc i know a lot of pton interviewers but idk

anything to cope

[queen current]

The interviewer I got graduated in 2025 lol why do I hear everyone’s seem to be 80 years old 😭

[gilded umbra]

yeah i mean it sucks but ig it's fine lol, i heard they do interviews till like late jan

[coral cobalt]

dw bro we got it

cya at princeton 🔥

[gilded umbra]

yeah def, good luck!

[brittle vale]

is it normal for princeton interviewers to call you

or do most of them email

[rancid condor]

Idk ab Princeton specifically but from my experience a lot of interviewers call

[hard finch]

i’m going to email it to princeton admissions, is that wrong?

[hard finch]

i think email it to the whole admissions office ??

[alpine oxide]

no idea

[alpine oxide]

ill probably upload it to the portal then let my regional ao know? idk yet

[obsidian harness]

ummm hi

[bright comet]

though disconnected I believe the university helps cover the cost for aided students
