Princeton University Class of 2023 SCEA Applicants Thread

@iiRoMii Progress reports are essentially your first quarter grades, the grades you received halfway through first semester. Sometimes, Princeton will ask the counselors of the early applicants for these grades, just to see how well that applicant is doing in their Senior classes before deciding on his/her decision. A request for a progress report doesn’t necessarily mean that you are likely to get accepted.

Likely letters are usually sent to athletes or outstanding applicants letting them know that an acceptance is most probably on its way; Ivy Leagues typically only send those to regular decision applicants.

Except for recruited athletes; they get Likely Letters in the SCEA/ED round.

@LincolnsGF Ohhh ok thanks for clearing that up. Good luck to you btw!

Guys, so last year Princeton had a website for admitted students admitted.princeton.edu

U just need to try your usenrname and password from ur portal.

I wasn’t able to get in… :frowning: Is that a sign? R any of u guys able to get in?

It says forbidden
This site is not available

@tzallgood5610 I don’t really think it should mean anything. They probably just have a website ready for those admitted, but are not finished updating viewing privileges for their applicants.

@xyzalpha I hope that’s all this is…idk

@iiRoMii were u able to get in tho?

Did they give any concrete date yet as to when results will be released?

Nor will you until (if) you are an admitted student. This is not a back door to finding out your decision early.

I wasn’t able to get in either! They probably won’t let us access the page until after they send out decisions.

Does anybody know how we will get notified about the decisions, will they send us an email or will it be shown on the applicant portal?

They’ll send out an email that changes have been made to your application status screen (I think?)

As from the YouTube videos, there’ll be an orange tiger if we are selected with a congratulations message :slight_smile:

is there any way to fiddle around with the f12 script and maybe get some clue as to what our application status is?

You should assume that any “loophole” that a 17 y/o applicant has “discovered” has long ago been closed by the more experienced AO and/or IT guy.You have less than 2 weeks. Just chill.

does anyone else besides me find it unusual how inactive this thread is lol

haha yeah, maybe that many people didn’t apply early to Princeton this year lol

Yeah I heard not that many people applied to Princeton this year, I think Yale got a lot more though.

@nobukos lmao this is bit late but I submitted an arts supplement too! hopefully we’ll get in!!

@Ste11arstar

“Yeah I heard not that many people applied to Princeton this year,”

Where did you hear that? Do you know why the number of applicants dropped?

@StevenToCollege Just word of mouth, that’s what I heard–not very reliable lol, don’t trust me haha
