Official Princeton University Fall 2018 transfer thread

Let’s see how this goes!

Hey! I’m applying as well! Have you finished your application?

It’s a big moment for Princeton! It’ll be their first transfer class since 1990…

I pass through the university every day on my way to work, I can tell ya’ it’s one hell of an inspiration if anything. Good luck!

I just submitted my application, let’s see how this pipe dream goes. Any other veterans on here apply?

@Mycatsnameispups Hey, I’m applying as well, what branch were you? Low key hoping too many people haven’t heard about Princeton taking transfer applicants.

Just got back from a tour and info session at Princeton and I was the only prospective transfer among the group. I spoke with the admission counselor and she really stressed that they are looking for non-traditionals like veterans and community college students. She said her team is super excited to read the transfer applications since most of them are quite unique.

@SmartJarhead , I remember one of your posts a few months ago! Look, all things considered on how selective a process it’ll be, I think you have a seriously good shot at getting accepted. It’s not just your veteran status, you had amazing grades at your institution too. You’ll bring a very unique touch to the Princeton campus, one I don’t think they’ve had yet (or at least not in a long time)

hey how is everyone? Does anyone know how many they are accepting? (12?)

@CC12342021 , I read that on some publication by the university- 12 is the figure they gave. Just like Harvard’s usual transfer class gulp

Oh snap! That’s okay, if it is meant to be it is meant to be.

Did you guys send in your app? What major are you pursuing?

Application submitted, just in the nick of time I’d say :)) Good luck to you all, it’s gonna be a ride to remember, that we can be sure of.

I am applying as well! Good luck to everyone. I am also a nontraditional student from a community college. I am not a vet though.

Has anyone received the link to the applicant’s portal yet? I submitted my application yesterday and haven’t received any info from them yet.

Yep, I got mine the day after I submitted my application. You will probably get it Monday.

I hope time goes by fast, I’m so excited to have applied. Two and a half months is so far away!

Good luck all!

what is everyone majoring in?

I was planning on Woody Woo or Econ.

Thank you! :slight_smile:
