<p>I want to join the Princeton network on Facebook and talk to my future schoolmates. however, i've deferred my enrolment to next year, Sep 2009. will I still get my Princeton email along with the other people admitted this year?</p>
<p>Nope, I deferred from Sep'07 to Sep'09, and I have not yet received my pton email/id.</p>
<p>Just out of curiosity, how do those who deferred plan to spend their gap year(s)?</p>
<p>I got out of the U.S. Army in May of '07 and had planned to attend in Sep '07, but I work in a fairly specialized field and the military asked me to stay on as a Department of the Army civilian for 2 more years until there was a bit more coverage for my niche, so I asked for a deferral.</p>
<p>It's been a good 2 years, with several interesting trips around Europe and a few to Africa, but I'm definetely looking forward to finally getting to Princeton in '09... and being back in the states fulltime. </p>
<p>It's surprising how much you miss one-day Amazon.com shipping and 24-hour Walmarts. :)</p>
<p>Wow, you certainly will bring a unique set of experiences to the campus community! Any idea what you'd like to study?</p>
<p>StrandedInEurope, how old are you??</p>
<p>I haven't nailed anything precise down yet, but I've worked fairly heavily on international politics and public policy type issues for the past 5 years, so I'm leaning in that direction. I'd also like to pick up a language or two.</p>
<p>I'm 24 now, but I'll be 25 when I enter Pton.</p>
<p>i think it's confirmed - my friends have received theirs. everyone except me.</p>
