Princeton University Class of 2016 SCEA Thread

<p>Less than 2 days (at least here in the Continents) guys! Just wanted to pop by and wish you all the luck imaginable!
btw, thanks for the link to the time notification site</p>

<p>2 Days 4 Hours and 16 Minutes 5 seconds left</p>

<p>Good Luck :)</p>

<p>I want to share something I found on the Brown ED thread which happens to be the funniest thing I’ve ever read (hey that rhymed).</p>

<p>"Hi, I would really appreciate your guys’ input on my chances on ED for brown! thanks </p>

<p>I am a legal caucasian female midget at a small rural public high school of 14.7 students.
I was recently called by collegeboard telling me that I had broken their scoring system with a 2450 despite taking it during the summer of 7th grade.
My cumulative GPA from the age of 6 months is an unweighted 0.04 (this however is explained in my supplement because through age 12, I was still unable to read and write and thus unable to complete my homework assignments)
I am also the president of many clubs including alligators united and the feces lovers club.
I was recently named by president obama as 2011 “rando of the year”, winning an aluminum medal as well as a $75 gift certificate to best buy
I’m am one of 7 interns to the secretary of the 12 year old field hand at the local ant farm. My responsibilities include organizing cremation and burial of each individual ant as well as the legal paperwork involved in ant ownership.
Recently, I have also achieved much success as “that one kid smoking on the curb outside QFC at 3 am”
I have also published two 400 page books detailing my adventures in the discoveries of every jamba juice flavor ever created as well as my research into the low budget porn vajazzling industry (note, HIGHLY corrupt)
legally blind, I have somehow obtained a drivers license and hit on average 12.7 squirrels and 3 small children per month (this number increases significantly during the holiday season)
I am the Washington state advocate against No shave November for 2010
In my free time, I enjoy making dubstep remixes of audio I record in vietnamese pho restaurant bathrooms from 9 pm-3 am interlaced with lil wayne and celine dion tracks
At my school, I was voted “widest face diameter” and “most likely to be folding origami cranes during lunch”
As an advocate against paper cuts everywhere, I have taken it upon myself to go to school 3 hours early every morning and fray the edges of every single piece of paper in the office with my neon orange BIC lighter.
I have thus received countless special “services to the school” recognitions rivaling those of Tom Riddle </p>

<p>thanks again!"</p>

<p>Made me forget about decisions… I actually laughed out loud!</p>

<p>Haha I saw that too! </p>

<p>@Xenophilius23 I also found that link on google. However, can we be sure of the validity of that site? I would think that if it was official a link could be found on the Princeton Undergrad Admissions website…</p>

<p>@mathgirl I’d expect it to be on the website as well, but I feel pretty good about the validity of it, being that it IS a princeton.edu link. And the links ON that page bring you to the application tracker and other official Princeton webpages, so I wouldn’t worry about its legitimacy too much right now.
Perhaps once we get closer to the release date (like maybe sometime tonight or tomorrow) Princeton will post a link to it directly from their website.</p>

<p>Thanks Xenophilius! I agree. I just don’t know how I am going to get through the next two days! Actually, 1 day 23 hours 28 minutes</p>

<p>THE COUNTDOWN CLOCK IS KILLING ME.</p>

<p>I seriously cannot wait to just find out, so the waiting can be over. If I hear one more person come up to me and say “omg the college process is so exciting” I will whack them over the head with a spade. No. Go away.</p>

<p>Ahh less than two days! The finish line finally seems to be in sight.</p>

<p>Hahaha mpro I couldn’t agree with you more. I’m getting a little crazy seeing all of my friends’ “accepted to ___!” posts lol. I’m so happy for them, but I would be more happy if I had gotten in somewhere too :stuck_out_tongue: And fhplayer the finish line seems to be moving away to me haha. Time has begun going backwards. Thursday seems like it’ll never get here.</p>

<p>kellabell I thought today was Wednesday all day and that we only had one more day to wait…I was rather disappointed when I realized that it’s Tuesday. It does seem like time is standing still.</p>

<p>Ouch haha. That’s pretty awful.</p>

<p>Yeah the wait is excruciating. This morning when I woke up I thought: “Tomorrow at this time I’ll be able to tell myself that I’ll get my decision tomorrow.” </p>

<p>In other words, we find out on tomorrow’s tomorrow. </p>

<p>I’m obsessing. Clearly.</p>

<p>Hahaha you’re not the only one. I’ve been counting down the hours, and last night I…I’m not sure what happened to me lol. I finished my homework super fast, then read an entire Harry Potter book in bed and didn’t leave my room except for dinner. I think I’ve reached maximum stress capacity. :P</p>

<p>HAHAHAHAHA.</p>

<p>Just out of curiosity… Which Harry Potter book?</p>

<p>Ahhhh a bunch of my friends just posted more acceptance statuses (not about Princeton). It’s making the wait THAT much harder! D:</p>

<p>So glad for them though, so far we’ve gotten 2 in ivies! Hopefully this is a good sign…</p>

<p>Goblet of Fire :slight_smile: In my opinion, the best one! And in my school so far I think we’ve gotten three into Cornell, but one is being recruited by every single ivy for rowing so he doesn’t count haha.</p>

<p>With regards to the website, it is almost certainly valid, since it’s a princet.edu link and is updated for SCEA.</p>

<p>I imagine we’ll be emailed a link to it sometime, either in the next few days, or on Thursday itself.</p>

<p>O.O wow, you called it haha. I just got an email with the link in it.</p>

<p>They email the link. I just got it</p>
