Princeton University Class of 2022 SCEA Applicants Thread

Today is a day of celebration regardless of the outcome. There is no judgement day. This does not judge you in any way shape or form. Each and everyone of you should celebrate your hard work and accomplishments. Think of the small number of applications that are received for EA/ED, and you are one of them. That is something to be extremely proud of. I applaud and admire each and everyone of you for your perseverance and determination.

I am sure of one thing: Princeton is not the only amazing school you applied to, therefore any school that accepts you, will be a great choice and an equally amazing journey for you.

Its a great day! Hugs to all.

How far along are you guys with your other supplements?

I’m a hopeful Woody Woo concentration with a certificate in Sustainable Energy.

Just a reminder: to potentially put this question to rest, when decisions are out, post your decision and if you got the PFAA email/Q1 grades request/both. Maybe then we’ll get an answer!

@Hellokitty13 I’m about done with brown and half way into the columbia supplement, got about 5 more after that, but I’m tackling the longer more personally challenging supplements first. These are only for the 1st deadline, so I’m really pushing it with my schedule.

I’m off to sleep now. Goodluck everyone! May the odds be in our favour!

4 hours… I know I won’t be accepted - just want to get this over with and do other supplements.

Biological and chemical engineering…I found this thread just today and well I’m not very sure how to explain how I feel about reading everyone’s stats lol…I’m also going to be in class when the decisions come out and I barely slept last night. SO NERVOUS but good luck to everyone :slight_smile:

Anyone else freaking out at this point?

yes I’m super nervous … any future music majors here??

Son applied RD…wishing he was SCEA. Excited for everyone!

lmao my mom kinda made me (and my twin brother) apply cuz she went there, but there’s literally no chance we’ll get in. She’s annoyingly hopeful, though…I mean I see you guys with near-perfect GPAs throughout all of high school, and I’m honestly nowhere close. And when I see people with 3.98 UW/4.0 GPAs getting rejected!!! I did very well Jr. Year and have done quite well so far this year, but seriously, my Freshman grades were meh, and my Sophomore grades were only a bit better. I’ve taken the most rigorous courses available, but I just can’t see myself being accepted, maybe deferral as legacy pity/appeasement.

One of my friends applied to harvard SCEA and she got deferred :confused: she’s right above me in terms of rank with a 4.6 GPA approximately but a 1400 SAT…I know this doesn’t have anything to do with princeton really but it’s also an ivy so I’m kinda freaking out lol

English or Film & Video

Operations research and financial engineering

My DD is taking mid terms today. Like all of you she is hopeful but realistic. I’m buying lottery tickets today so maybe if we don’t win the lottery and get into princeton we might win mega millions. Lol. Good luck to everyone. Remember to be kind to your parents. We are only trying to help. :slight_smile:

Electrical engineering/cs

@MayBIvyMomma I like the idea about buying some lottery tickets today. SCEA admission to Princeton not much different that playing the lottery lol.

Good luck to everyone who has applied.

Good luck to you and your journey, I have the same mindset and can’t wait to see what happens!!

I think I may have ruined friendships just stressing out about apps… And have resolved to not even check until friday.
