What’s goin on guys.
I’ve been reading this thread constantly over the last week. AHHH we’ll all know literally 24 hrs from now!
I legit have been nonstop fidgety for the past three days. I feel like I’m constantly hopped up on caffeine. God I just wish I could sleep for 24 hours straight and wake up to the decision. Thanks for keeping me sane guys
How many people do you guys think applied early this year?
My best guess is a modest increase…nothing too crazy such as last year’s absurd jump in the number of SCEA applicants.
@malpacca90 I read where UPenn’s early application pool size is starting to plateau and this year’s pool is nearly the same as last year. I’m hoping the same is occurring with Princeton.
@refn100 I relate. I’ve been rather jumpy.
What is everyone applying for? I applied for engineering
Why is the number of applicants plateauing? I’m not complaining, just curious.
also, this might be a relative stretch but… last year was 2000s babies mostly so a lot more people applying overall, maybe all us late 2000 and 2001 babies will have a smaller pool…? wow i am stretching myself LMAO

I’m stressed because I feel like I’ve spent my entire life preparing to get into college, and even so, I will probably get rejected. That terrifies me; 17 years of work, all culminated in one decision. I have back-ups upon back-ups, of course, but I just think this whole process is kind of crazy. One application is not a reflection of a lifetime of work. I’m not perfect; my SAT score is below a 1500, my Subject Tests were horrible, and yet I know that I’m a hard worker who’d belong at Princeton. I’m sure that’s the case with many of you, too. Idk. I’m just nervous because test scores and college prep have pretty much been shoved down my throat since elementary school, and now that it’s time, I’m not sure what will happen next.
Don’t worry @admitmepleaseee . We will all know soon haha
Not to freak anyone else out. We’re all going to be fine! I’ve just been thinking a lot about how many of my academic decisions have been motivated by college instead of genuine passion.
And that doesn’t make you any less qualified! But it’s nice to know I’m not alone, haha. I took my subject tests in November, so I didn’t get to see the scores before I sent them in.
Lol I live in Cali
Ahh yeah, I just want to know at this point
Me too. I feel like senior year will be a lot less stressful once I just commit to college.
How many of you guys are still planning to apply RD to other schools if you get into Princeton? And would any of you just commit the second you got admitted? Just trying to keep my mind off this whole thing lol
I am–music school lmao. Anyone else applying to music schools?
@Ste11arstar I applied to a bunch of dual degree programs
