Over thinking an email from Princeton?

<p>Well, all of our decisions should by now be made (if Princeton somewhat closely follows Harvard's timetable)!!!</p>

<p>But to get to my question: Last Monday (the 19th) I had sent Princeton an email update about qualifying for Intel ISEF for a fourth time and instead of receiving a reply from the generic UA office email address I received one from Ashley McLeod, one of their "admissions assistants." It had one line saying that the information would be added to my file.</p>

<p>I'm probably reading too far into this, but does such a reply indicate anything about my chances?</p>

<p>You’re reading too far into this. I received the same email after sending in an update about a month and a half ago, didn’t even think about it. Just a standard admissions reply.</p>

3

<p>I also received an e-mail from Mcleod after my update.</p>

4

<p>Wouldn’t think too much of it.</p>

5

<p>Haha- received the same one here! XD And co-incidentally, I sent an update on the same day!!</p>

6

<p>I did not get an e-mail reply after sending an update on March 16th…</p>

<p>Don’t worry about it!</p>

8

<p>Did you send it to <a href=“mailto:uaoffice@princeton.edu”>uaoffice@princeton.edu</a>?</p>

<p>Certain. I’d imagine they’re too busy to get to all updates, though.</p>

10

<p>It’s not that they don’t get to all updates, I think they just don’t have the time to reply to each one and confirm their receipt…</p>

<p>So relax, your update probably got to them, and I’m sure the admissions office is a little too caught up with ‘stuff’ right now to discriminate among people who send them emails :P</p>

<p>That’s what I meant, haha. They can’t “get to” all of them as in they can’t reply to all.</p>

<p>ohh…me-bad :blush: haha XD</p>
