<p>maddy good luck! That totally isn't fair, because that EA college is taking advantage of you as an international. And as for people sabotaging you, I really hope people don't. I applied to Princeton ED because I thought it was one of the few top schools that didn't have that that level of vicious competition. You deserve a shot at Princeton just as much as anyone else, and I hope you get it :)</p>
<p>thanks alot JTC007.....I am just a little bit burnt that a school can do such a thing.....I am getting really scared now.</p>
<p>i finally got the email saying my application is complete. =D now the wait :(</p>
<p>i'm guessing we'll have around 4000 applicants :eek:</p>
<p>I doubt it...more like 2500.</p>
<p>My interviewer finally called. ahhhh I'm scared! :eek:</p>
<p>you'll be fine, arwen !! good luck. i think most people's were very informal (including mine). there was really nothing to worry about at all :)</p>
<p>PS I REALLY WANT PRINCETON TO RELEASE THE ED STATISTICS!!!!</p>
<p>I hope the acceptance rate for ED is around 25 to 30%. Assuming P-ton accepts around 600 applicants again for early, this means a range of 2000 to 2400 applicants. However, it seems that this year, there will be more applicants. But I don't think it will reach over 3000 applicants. So 600/3000 is 20%, and I think that's the lowest it will go.</p>
<p>i'm scared about the possibility that they will test out next year's policy by admitting less people early though.</p>
<p>Yeah just because Yale's dropped doesn't necessarily mean everyone else's increased...I don't know why so many people are starting to worry.</p>
<p>Like foolonthehill161 said, if it does go up, I doubt it will go up to more than 3000.</p>
<p>3000 is still a lot!!</p>
<p>anyone know EXACTLY how many ED applicants there were last year? and how many accepted? (dunno if this was previously mentioned)</p>
<p>Does anyone know when they congregate together to make the decisions?</p>
<p>From the collegeboard website:</p>
<pre><code>* Number of early decision applications received: 2,039
* Number admitted under early decision plan: 593
* Number enrolled under early decision plan: 586
</code></pre>
<p>harvard and stanford have around 4000 applicants in their early action schemes... :eek: thats quite a lot... </p>
<p>but then, people prefer EA because they are scared of ED!</p>
<p>not us, princetonians.
we say BRING IT ON BITTTCH</p>
<p>lol, as long as the profanity isn't specifically directed at anyone, i guess :)</p>
<p>It's not profane.
It passed the CC "STAR THE BAD WORD OUT" test.
The extra Ts make the word ambiguous.
What's a bitttch? That's not in the dictionary...</p>
<p>muahhaa... yet again, many of us are online.. how 'bout a virtual party?</p>
<p>lol everyone on this page is online except arwen</p>
<p>mm... does anyone know what is the process adopted by pton to let its applicants know the admission decisions? <em>phew, that was a tough question to frame</em> emails? only snail-mails? both?</p>
