<p>If anyone finds out exact number, please post here asap</p>
<p>The waitlist was not used in the past very much (I think like 40 people got in this year)</p>
<p>BUT</p>
<p>this year they have no idea what to expect for yield, etc, because half the class hasn't been locked in, as was the case with ED. So be optimistic!</p>
<p>Check out this headline: With</a> no early applicants, U. will draw heavily on waitlist - The Daily Princetonian</p>
<p>If you don't feel like reading it,</p>
<p>"Rapelye added that, because of this year's uncertainty about expected yield, her office will initially admit a 'conservative' number of students and then possibly take 'several hundred students off the wait list.'"</p>
<p>In other words, they will use the waitlist much more this year! Good luck everyone!</p>
<p>Edit: I'm a current freshman. If you have any questions about Princeton PM me!</p>
<p>But it's all speculation right now... :S I'm scared to feel any optimism.</p>
<p>The official number is 1,976 out of 21,369 were offered admission. Another 1,526 were offered a position on the wait list.</p>
<p>i am also waitlisted and still hoping</p>
