<p>Any idea how many applicants Princeton will admit SCEA? Since its the first time no stats available but has anyone heard anything?</p>

<p>

My guess is somewhere in the 600–800 range, which would yield an acceptance rate of 16–20%, but this is just based on looking at other colleges with SCEA.</p>

<p>Did anybody else read the article in the New York Times about a week ago…? It said something like 3,500+ kids applied to Princeton SCEA. Just saying, that’s 3x the size of the undergraduate class.</p>

<p>I’m confused APRookie…I saw on another thread that you applied EA to both Boston College and Villanova? If you truly applied REA to Princeton that is against the rules.</p>

<p>I’ve withdrawn my SCEA app. (details in the SCEA thread) so I cann.ot do this anymore</p>

<p>With a 8.39% acceptance rate, 4 (if you round up) of the posters would get it… So depressing.</p>

<p>No! Be positive! Besides I bet the REA acceptance rate be higher then 8.9% since Yale’s is usually around 14.5%</p>

<p>Also, I think the CollegeConfidential cohort is generally above-average for the applicant pool, since we’re generally better informed (about iikelihood) and how to create a good application. I’m hoping maybe about 8 of us get in.</p>

<p>I think we’ll get more than 8 in…</p>

<p>Soooo the 15th’s the big day? I don’t think I’m going to be able to sleep until then haha. Good luck everyone!</p>

<p>“Also, I think the CollegeConfidential cohort is generally above-average for the applicant pool, since we’re generally better informed (about iikelihood) and how to create a good application. I’m hoping maybe about 8 of us get in.”
I’m thinking ~15 will get in…</p>

<p>That’s just me being extremely optimistic though</p>

<p>^ See what I did there… I’m #42. It’s the answer. This guarantees admission, right?</p>

<p>Seriously though, I hope I’m in a state to tell you guys what my status is post-Dday (decision day).</p>
