Your favorite line from a movie or book and its title:
Arthur felt happy. He was terribly pleased that the day was for once working out so much according to plan. Only twenty minutes ago he had decided he would go mad, and now here he was already chasing a Chesterfield sofa across the fields of prehistoric Earth. - The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
Honestly, my Princeton interview was my least favorite of all the ones I did. The interviewer just rapid fire questioned me instead of it being a conversation and I left feeling even more stressed than when I arrived 
Anyone know how Princeton notifies applicants (letter, email, phone call?) My letter from Georgetown arrived like six days late so I’m kinda hoping it’s email
wait @LAH245544 you got a letter from gtown already?
also princeton emails you when your portal has been updated and you get your decision via portal. It should be coming out on the 28th betwewen 5-7pm est.
Yeah I got in ea
By my calculations, I currently have a 71% chance of getting in right now so at least something. Unfortunately, for every day they do not release their decision, my chances drop by 6.45%. And I have to endure 11 more days of this.
lol I don’t know if I want the day to come faster or slower
@MickleTheNickel9 I don’t remember all my son’s answers, but these are the ones I do remember. You win on favorite word – what does that mean btw? I think my son actually enjoyed this part of the application more than any other thing he had to do during this process.
Favorite Book: The Second Mark: Courage, Corruption, and the Battle for Olympic Gold (a GREAT take on the teams involved in the 2002 Salt Lake City pairs judging controversy.)
Favorite Recording: “Accidental Eddie Money Enthusiast”, Mike Polk Jr. (a Cleveland area comedian I doubt that the Princeton admissions committee has ever heard of but is supremely hilarious. He’s the guy that did all those “Cleveland Tourism” videos on youtube awhile back).
Favorite Movie: Atlantis (the Disney cartoon)
Just wondering if any of you got a letter earlier in the year inviting you to apply. Just curious, idk if it even means anything

favorite line from a movie or book and its title: “It’s not a bad tree at all. Maybe it just needs a little love.” A Charlie Brown Christmas
It doesn’t; it’s simply marketing.
hey everyone, becoming super anxious cuz my friend who applied to another ivy got a likely letter. Does princeton even send them out?
Unless things have changed recently (which could be; I don’t follow P’ton admissions as closely), Princeton is unique amongst the 8 in that it only sends LLs in the Fall to recruited athletes. Regardless, the big message for the other Ivy League colleges is: the vast majority of accepted applicants will not receive a LL. So don’t attempt to read the tea leaves based upon not getting one.
@ashley_2023 I didn’t get a letter :((
@Samsmom2019 it means useless! Quite a fun word! Your son’s answers are pretty great too. And I have to agree with him - best part of the app. Good luck to him!
Do any of you guys know of international students getting in without interview? Literally all applicants from my high school got Princeton interviews, apart from me.
How many other ivies did everyone apply to???
Four others for daughter.
