Updates

<p>So I sent Princeton some trivial updates few days back about Bla bla yadayada, and the problem is, they haven't replied to me yet... Anyone has any idea what is happening, I mean shud I resend it?</p>

<p>Thz alot :D</p>

<p>No. You needn’t send them again. They may take up to 7 business days to update and finally include it. Then, you will get an email acknowledgement that your update has been received and has been included with your file.</p>

<p>I got my reply after 8 days…</p>

<p>Oh gosh I sent mine like last week and they haven’t replied too… Not planning to resend though, it probably takes time</p>

<p>The last two updates that I sent to Princeton were via USPS. Should I have sent them an email instead? And if so, to what address?</p>

<p>I didn’t receive any digital replies but they were confirmed as being “Delivered”, and had all of my pertinent information.</p>

<p>Bump 10 char</p>

<p>hmmm idk… I sent an update to the general admissions email, and they got back to me that day, confirming that they will add the material to my file… i would send an email just letting admissions know that you sent supp. material.</p>

<p>Really? I have sent 3 updates via email and never heard back, so I decided to fax them to the admission office. What email address did you send your update to?</p>

<p>@JaguarFan</p>

<p>I’m assuming that message was for me? Anyways, I sent my email to <a href=“mailto:uaoffice@princeton.edu”>uaoffice@princeton.edu</a> and a specific representative emailed me back.</p>

<p>@nondairycreamer, thanks. And yes the message was for you.</p>

<p>Uhmm, very strange. It was the same email address I used as well. I sent 3 emails with 3 different new accomplishments over a span of 3-4 weeks. I never heard back from them. Did you apply RD or SCEA? I was SCEA deferred.</p>

<p>@JaguarFan</p>

<p>Lol okay good. That is strange. I applied RD, I sent the email in the middle of last month. Maybe you should send an email asking to confirm they got the materials. If you didn’t get any response, that raises a red flag.</p>

<p>Good luck!!! If they don’t answer your email, try calling.</p>

<p>@nondairycreamer, thanks again.</p>

<p>Princeton is not alone. Columbia, Yale, Duke and Harvard all are like that - they don’t respond to email updates, and do not notify me of updates received via fax. Is it me, or they are too busy to respond? I hope it is the latter.</p>

<p>JaguarFan, although I get replies from P whenever I sent them updates, I do not think it is of any significance. You must understand that there are several people surfing through incoming mails, some reply, some dont- no biggie.</p>

<p>And I hardly think getting a notification on your update is a clue to how much Princeton ‘values’ you or if its an insight into your admissions chances, I think P has much bigger things to tackle atm than decide whose emails are worthy replying to, and whose are not ;)</p>
