<p>who else is eager to see Princeton's new website? Their current one is.. well.. no comment</p>
<p><em>raises hand</em> And I've been waiting since last year. Grrr...</p>
<p>omg princeton's website sucks</p>
<p>their new one will increase apps probably</p>
<p>Haha, agreed.</p>
<p>I wasn't attracted to princeton at first because their website is a bit...unappealing...when is the new one coming out?</p>
<p>ask phil - he's the one with all the inside scoop on their techno-labs (jks) Well, last I heard it was supposed to be out 2 months ago!/?</p>
<p>I don't like the site too: It hasn't changed from 1999(archive.org). But then again check out what MIT had back in 1999:

eek.</p>
<p>oh, but that I knew. I know they upgraded their e-mail server (which is crashing right now, btw), but no update to the actual site. I wish I could spend more time at their site, but it's only updated with rather trivial news from time to time. Sad times, sad times.</p>
<p>so does that explain why I didnt get a confirmation e-mail? I was a bit concerned about that...</p>
<p>see - phil has the inside scoop.
Philip- WHAT CRASH?!?! WHEN!?!? WHERE!? WHAT'S GOING ON?!?! ARE OUR BABIES (SORRY, APPLICATIONS) GOING TO MAKE IT THROUGH?!?!</p>
<p>hahahaha, classic. And I don't really think it's related to the admissions e-mail server stuff/whatever. It mostly just seems to be the students' e-mails that have gone to the fiery place and back. Why did I bring that up? <em>watches the Panic of 2004 begin satellite-eyed</em></p>

<p>You speak my mind. I hope the new website will include an application tracking section, though. And, EncomiumII, you don't need to add my name to the roster... I'm RD. :)</p>
<p>lol our babies...</p>
<p>To track your application, just give the admissions office a call.</p>
<p>Thanks, mzhang23, just hoping they'll put it on their new website because that will make things more convenient (for them, too. Less time answering phone calls, more time reading our apps!)</p>
<p>The admissions officers aren't the ones answering the phones. Hired workers and students do that.</p>
<p>Do you answer phones?</p>
<p>so if you call, can you get an update on your application right then and there? Will they tell you whether it's been received, whether they have your SAT scores , etc? Or do they try to get you to call back later/wait for a confirmation card/other b.s?</p>
<p>if anyone has called already/knows about this, please do answer - i'm debating whether/not to call, or if email is better...& calling is expensive for some people</p>
<p>Call; they are kinda slow with emails...</p>
