<p>I’m also tired of Spanish. I think I want to try Russian! I’m also learning ancient greek right now, but I don’t know if I want to continue in college.</p>
<p>Is anyone else interested in the Woodrow Wilson School?</p>
<p>hey guys, I’m applying RD to Princeton 2018. If you wouldn’t mind, I just wanted to make sure that Princeton doesn’t have a strict word limit for their short-response essays. Mine are about 5-10 words over and there is no red message on the Common App could someone please confirm that the Common App will let you go over the word limit on the Princeton Supplement? And Good Luck to all of you with Early Action decisions!!</p>
<p>Strangely, the closer we get to the decision date, the less anxious I feel.</p>
<p>Like most of you, I’ve been under a lot of pressure, coming from both myself and from everyone else. I’ve had several nights where I’ve scoured the internet for Princeton content beyond what I imagine most hopeful applicants seek out, and I have wasted away my time at school daydreaming about life at Princeton. I’ve had several moments where I’ve just gone, “ERMAHGERD I WANT TO GO TO PRINCETON SOOOO BAAAAAAD”. My peers all know I applied SCEA to Princeton. However, all that being said, I’m starting not to really care anymore.</p>
<p>Is anybody else experiencing something similar?</p>
<p>Yes, My S is.</p>
<p>I mean interested in the Woodrow Wilson school.</p>
<p>@fx1k97 I feel the same. As the 16th draws closer, I’ve started to be less and less anxious about this whole ordeal – probably just because I’m accepting that I likely won’t be going to Princeton.</p>
<p>That’s the worst part about this; everything seemed too good to be true. I walked on campus and just fell in love with everything. It felt like home, in the corniest sense of the word. So I applied, and my chances seemed good. I got an interview, and it went amazing. And now, in eight days, the last two years of my life are going to end with the click of a button, for better or for worse, and I’ll find out, more likely than not, that fate dropped a perfect school in my lab, that I can’t go to.</p>
<p>Also, I plan on majoring in biology with concentrations in neuroscience and Spanish.</p>
<p>@fx1k97: Somedays I feel extremely nervous while some days I feel calmer. It really depends. I’m trying to brace myself for rejection, but it is just so hard! There will always be a part of me that is hopeful.</p>
<p>I hear that on Yale’s letter there is a singing bulldog if you are accepted. Does Princeton’s letter have anything like that?</p>
<p>there’s an orange tiger on the acceptance letter</p>
<p>@KeDIX1414: Same here. Statistically speaking, I am going to get rejected, and I am trying to prepare for that. But I keep reminding myself that SOMEONE has to get in. I guess all we can do is wait.</p>
<p>@ fx1k97 I’m totally with you on that.</p>
<p>At this point, I’m just gonna try to get all my apps done for reaches cause I know that my motivation level is gonna hit negative once I get that deferral/rejection letter on Monday.</p>
<p>One more week guys:)</p>
<p>Last night my niece in NY told me her friend was already accepted into Princeton!!! She found out when her teacher announced in class so I don’t think a teacher would joke with something like that. She said it was also special cause she’s the first student in 6 years going to Princeton. They send many students to all Ivies, but not Princeton.</p>
<p>Can someone explain why she had received a letter when their website says it’ll be on Monday the 16th?</p>
<p>@LK5D
That’s fine.</p>
<p>@Saona63: The girl in your niece’s class may have been one of the 31 Questbridge admittees announced Dec 02. Or she may be a Likely Letter holder due to being an athletic recruit.</p>
<p>I’m a QB finalist who decided to opt out of match to do early action to Princeton. Seeing as they took 31 matches this year, I’m worried about my own chances since QB is my only “hook”</p>
<p>@pragya5 My ACT tutor also had a similar situation. He opted out of QB match and applied EA to MIT. He said just being associated with QB was probably a “flag” for the admissions officers and helped him get in because they knew about his financial situation. So opting out is not a bad thing. Being a part of QB can still help you get in.</p>
<p>@T26E4-- she’s not an athlete cause I asked that yesterday. But forgive me for sounding ignorant but what is Questbridge??</p>
