Princeton ED Applicant numbers

<p>I think this warrants a new thread. I was poking around Google news and found the following very interesting:</p>

<p>Pton '09 ED: 2,039 (12% increase)
Pton '10 ED: 2,230 (9% increase)</p>

<p>Not too sure what this means, especially if Pton is rumored to be expanding acceptances a bit this year. I know their undergrad student body will be 500 students larger by 2012.</p>

<p>Does anyone know the projected class size for fall 2006? and will this affect the ED acceptance?</p>
