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

@colorfulhuman 7PM EST

@colorfulhuman 7pm. Did you not get the email from Princeton yesterday about this? If so, check your spam?

@practicetest27 my long essay was a strange mix of skiing, trucks, BLM land, and Paul Bunyan. My favorite word is ‘shrubbery’.

@ski_racer Shhhhh…Don’t tell @practicetest27 too much… :stuck_out_tongue:

Guys, do you think I should go to UCL in the UK or UCSD? I don’t want to live in the UK, but my family wants me to go to the higher ranked school, i.e, UCL. :((

@sastronaut I really think you should pick UCSD - it’s highly ranked too. UCL is a prestigious school but its dull af

I got into UCL last year, but when I visited it I felt it wasn’t for me. That’s why I took a gap year lmao

Hi, I reported 5 APs with score 5 and another 5 APs with score 4 in the common app. Would the 4s hurt my admission chance? I am Asian American.

@greenmeadow 4s are fine. You’ll be okay. But if any of you get a 3 or less, it’s in your best interest not to even report those

@mmstanfordbound I know right. But I doubt my parents will let me take a gap year. Brown parents :(( :((

17 and a half hours… gonna try to get some zzzs.

I am like 100% sure that I will get rejected by all the ivys I applied to, just need 17 hours to face the reality, lol.

Pretty sure the majority of people feel that way, or at least I do @quitpro

as the maker of this thread, i wanted to wish all of you good luck today! i made this thread because i thought i would be applying to princeton (big lol), but my heart ended up taking me in another direction, just like yours will do if you receive a rejection letter.

last year, when i received my rejections from brown and cornell, i felt so pitiful, and i want you to know that, if you feel like that if you receive a rejection from princeton, its okay. it’s okay to be sad, and it’s okay to be a little angry. however, know that time truly does heal all wounds, and you will be just fine. i ended up realizing i wouldn’t have been happy at cornell anyway, but brown on the other hand… well, i’ll save it as an option for graduate school (which i fully intend on pursuing). :slight_smile:

whatever the outcome, let your heart push you in the right direction, just like mine did for me.

in a few hours, we MIGHT see a difference in admit site. right now I believe we all see “403 forbidden”, if you see anything different in the upcoming hours, please post! https://apply.princeton.edu/portal/admitted

@sadgirl2017 @hsc927 I think that was more of a battle cry than an announcement of acceptance

@ski_racer hopefully [-O<

did the link work for you? can you share a ss? @dragon2020

lol hopefully it was just a battle cry. but if you did get accepted, congratulations!! @dragon2020
