<p>I was admitted to Princeton and got my letter in the mail Friday, April 1. On Monday, April 4, I sent the card back to them saying that I want to attend. Now I am just waiting for them to send more information, or at least a confirmation. I am getting nervous because my girlfriend is going to Brown, and they got back to her within a couple of days.</p>
<p>It would at least help my nerves to know that other people haven't gotten anything else either, and if someone actually knows when I can expect to receive something, that'd be even better.</p>
<p>I sent it a bit after you..around 7-8th, but I doubt they're that fast at processing replies. Most likely, they'll wait until the middle of the month to send out further packages. You're admitted...so sit back and relax</p>
<p>yah don't worry about it too much. i got in ED and didn't get anything (besides a like "i promise i withdrew all my other apps" card) until just this last week when they sent stuff like "don't worry, we didn't forget about you!" december to april was quite a dry spell, but hey i'll live it out for princeton. i'm sure stuff will start a'comin soon!</p>
<p>So true, sucharita. So very, very true. And exciting ;) I'm guessing the app won't come out until May or June, so we can enjoy our stress-free, relaxed lives now...while they last, haha.</p>

<p>I know!! My best friend got in ED at Brown and he also told me about how super-great the administration is there: on several occasions he sent a mail (to the FA office, Admission office etc), and they answered in 20 minutes!!!!</p>
<p>I sent a mail to the FA office about a serious matter last friday, and i still haven't got any answer... I'm actually thinking that i'll never get one. bleah.</p>
<p>well if its any consolation, I sent one on Friday too and I haven't got an answer either :D</p>
<p>But keeping your problem in mind, wouldn't it be a better idea to call? (if you can explain your position without sounding snotty, that is, which I'm sure you can :))</p>
<p>thanks sucharita! It is a consolation, in the sense that i'm not worried that they have something particular against me. </p>
<p>The whole thing troubles me but only a little, and i only wanted that Princeton be perfect :D, in this sense too... oh well at least it's perfect in the other, more important ways... blissful sigh... :D</p>
<p>PS not at all to imply that Brown isn't...</p>
<p>Edit: wow sucharita, you passed 2222 posts! <em>me number geek 8-)</em></p>
<p>We sent an e-mail to the Princeton FA office essentially asking for aid. They didn't reply for a week, so we called them and they told us they were processing it. We thought it was kind of odd - they could have at least confirmed that they had gotten it or something, right? A week after that letter we get a letter in the mail telling us that they're giving me a $15,000 grant, so guess who isn't breathing a single bad word about them any more.</p>
<p>Good for you cevonia! I'm even more happy for you, as my mail essentially asked for the same thing :D (in fact, i asked for more aid :o), so this is good news for me too. So the letter arrived after 1+1 weeks? or after just one week? i didn't get that part too well...
Thanks!</p>
