Did they all apply to Princeton? Just wondering if Princeton is still on the same path of deferring nearly all REA applicants.

Only one kid I know had applied. Who knows. I am actually OK with it! As I believe all these high achieving kids will do well.

Stats: 1500 sat, 4.2 gpa at top 30 public high school in CA, ASB all 4 years - class president 2 years, campaign intern for CA congressional house rep this summer, regional champion in track and xc, state top 5 in track. Hook was definitely sports but must be admissible hence pre-read this summer with coach and admissions.
Best of luck to all!

Thank you. Iâm the mom. 
Proud of that kid. The athletic recruitment process started for her late soph year and is not for the faint of heart. But glad it all worked out. Best of luck to you!!!

Deferred.
He has a great profile (1550 SAT, 4.0 GPA, 11 AP classes, two math olympic medals, published research paper, captain of the basketball team, head of MUN), but we all know its brutally hard. Feel good about Plan B, C and D.
Congrats to those accepted.

I am wondering why there seems to be more deferred than denied?

So recruited athlete daughter just joined the official Princeton class of 2027 Insta site. Over 120 on there, (and growing) since they notified earlier today. Randomly sampled the profiles. Seems that than half are recruited athletes, for what itâs worth. Would be interesting to see what percentage of EA accepted fit that hook. I can tell you that Pton coaches (at least for my daughter who is track/xc distance) encourage athletes to apply SCEAâŠand since 20% (yes that is a real stat) of Pton students are athletes it makes sense. Good luck to all!
