***Official Princeton University Class of 2022 RD Applicant Thread***

@FourYearsornot Wednesday 7pm EST, hang in there :open_mouth:

Not soon enough? @FourYearsornot

Tick-Tock,
Tick-Tock,
Tick-Tock…

@ricecooker420 is it posted on their website?

Wait so before there was correlation between the fin. aid request and now there isn’t?

What documents are these? Didn’t we send everything through the CSS already?

No, princeton uses their own form called princeton financial aid application. It’s all hooked to your account I believe.

@MisPollitas00 Ivy day is that day @ that time, I assume that they will post that day…who even knows nowadays.

@grundeis yup, but there was a thread last year made about it and most people still got WL/rejected even though they received the “missing PFAA form” email. It’s an email they send if you applied for Fin aid but forgot/didn’t finish the requirements like me (oops).

Some people got it, some didn’t, but now it’s just speculation

@frazzledazzle Damn. Although my intended major is Aerospace/ Mechanical Engineering, I went for the program ‘Planets and Life’. It’d be amazing if we got in!

@pplopez2001 Dude, I don’t even want to remember that I applied to Princeton and other Ivies. Already had a humbling experience with MIT and Caltech.

@Neelius I received the missing PFAA email on 28th Feb. And as far as I’ve seen in other CC threads, other applicants received it on the same date. Initially, I had high hopes because I thought it was a possible snail mail and yes, there seemed to a be a strong correlation in the past. However, in the recent years, there were several anomalies to justify a possible correlation. No expectations!

I received the email on 28th Feb too. If so many people on CC got the email then I lost all the hope.

Four more days of agony yay

@FourYearsornot Dude, you have already been accepted to JHU, WashU and Duke. And congratulations btw! It’s an honor that you have the privilege of choosing between these amazing schools! I’ve only been accepted to UCSD and UCL in the UK, which are none of my top preferences.

@sastronaut thanks, not meaning to be ungrateful but if anything that makes hope start building ya get me? It wouldn’t be a choice between any of those compared to Princeton. At least to me :blush:

UCL is legiiit!

@slumgoat I’m already having nightmares about living in the UK

@sastronaut my intended major is aero/mech and i picked planets and life too! hopefully we both get in

um are we sure d-day is wednesday? because when i applied early action (i got deferred), they sent me an email a week before releasing their decisions, to let me know that decisions would be coming out the following week. i haven’t gotten that email yet.

@ohdearlawd Yess. It’d be amazing to have someone of CC community on board, if I do get in!

lowkey i feel like we all applied for their astrophysics/aero programs
