Has anyone nominated by their school to attend this weekend event at the end of September heard back yet? Just wondering if invitations have been sent out yet. If so, when did you find out? email or postal mail?

I found out by email a few days after my counselor sent in the nomination, and I heard back from Princeton very shortly after I RSVPed. They've already arranged for my travel up there--the whole process has been fast!

When did you receive the email from Princeton? What date?

AnnieZ

Yeah, I got my email on Friday. I didn't even see it, so I was panicking the past few days, and I found it today. Thank God...a few more days and I would have missed the RSVP deadline. I RSVPed tonight.

I've heard that this helps your chances of admission at Princeton...can anyone confirm this?

I received an e-mail on Sept 7th, but mine is the same story as AnnieZ's... I definitely didn't see it in my inbox. Freak me out when I got the RSVP e-mail today! The two kids who have gone from my school have gone on to Ivy League schools (Princeton and Yale) but I'm not sure how much this program helped.

For the people who are going, where are you guys from? I'm from St. Louis, Missouri (go midwest!)

I am from St. Lou too!!!! Serendipity!!!!! I wonder if we are even on the same flights?

AnnieZ

Coolio!!!! We probably are Mine's at 10am friday

Hey! So I got the nomination from my school, but I have yet to hear back from Princeton yet. Does that just mean I didn't get in? When is the RSVP deadline that you mentioned?

LinaNick

I'm from central VA, so I might be meeting you guys at the airport in Newark to catch the train...we'll see! I'm excited

CareBeuler: The email I received said the RSVP date was September 13th

AnnieZ

@Carebeuler: The RSVP date was the 13th, I believe.

Can't wait to meet you guys!!!
