<p>Anyone know the percentage of kids who get deferred that get in regular. Can't be high but I can always hope</p>

2

<p>14% i was told</p>

3

<p>I like those odds.</p>

<p>OK, not really</p>

4

<p>what would you give to be surrounded by 250 year old gothic architecture?</p>

<p>your soul perhaps?</p>

<p>Haha...it's funny how that 14% number has been passed around so much it's quoted as if it's virtually fact. I think I remember when it was first posted...somewhere...it was done so in a "I've heard it was 14%" sort of way. As with other things on CC, I'd be wary of a number that's popped out of nowhere.</p>

<p>I've been seeing this number a lot, so just thought I'd comment. I doubt Princeton would ever release such stats.</p>

6

<p>What’s the RD acceptance rate for new applicants?</p>

7

<p>about 8-9% I think</p>

8

<p>Sounds good</p>

9

<p>On a side note, what percentage of ED applicants get deferred?</p>

10

<p>CautiousPessimissm, you are absolutely right. I remember posting saying "I think it's 14%". If my memory serves me well, someone on CC had said he/she had 'heard' that figure from 'somewhere' :p</p>

11

<p>interesting</p>

12

<p>i think that percentage came from the number of cc deferred kids who got in. I think.</p>

13

<p>Northern Virginia rules. i hope that's where you come from.....or else</p>

14

<p>i emailed and called them... they say the percentage changes each year from 5%-14%</p>
