Governor's School Crisis!

Colleges and Universities A-Z Princeton University

<p>I applied to the Governor's School for Public Issues earlier in the year, and I found out last week I was waitlisted. To all alumnae of this school, could you approximate the number of people that get in via the waitlist? </p>

<p>On a separate note, I have a genuine interest in attending this program, but I also heard that it gives NJ residents a big boost in getting into Princeton. Is this true? Or is it only for the science or engineering programs? Either way, I want to go SO BADLY and I've only heard good things about it...</p>

<p>Just as a FYI, I attended the Governor's School for the Sciences and got accepted into Princeton.</p>

<p>thanks, but that isn't making me feel better! hahah it's really my dream to go to princeton...i love everything about it (which is really unrealistic, considering that i've only had 2 or 3 isolated experiences there). i know the gov school programs are great too, so im crossing my fingers that i get accepted.</p>
