Princeton Class or 2021 EA / RD Application thread

@GettingRekt I’m a legacy and I haven’t gotten anything out of the usual… Hopefully not a bad sign lol

@sozzle have you gotten anything at all that seems specifically for legacies?

@GettingRekt Nope, nothing other than getting my interview maybe a bit early

@Cantiger <3

@Cantiger thanks for those words :slight_smile:

@wishhhh engineering applicant here. Idk why but I always see a dearth of engineering applicants in these threads lol

i applied for computer science :3

Decisions are so close!

Potential legacy applicants aren’t given/mailed/emailed anything particular. For many colleges, the parents get a letter though! It tries to inform them of the changed admissions landscape from their generation and to not underestimate the difficulty of any single applicant’s chances. It’s PR work to keep alumni sated, protect donation levels and hopefully keep them less angry because the kiddo applied but was rejected.

@wishhhh @samc24 Engineering as well!

Hey Everyone! So is it true that if you don’t receive request for a quarter grade report, you have been rejected or deferred?

@psywar @MissAnthropy @mackyg Thanks guys! Have a great Monday!

@oplurobha Are you guys on a semester or quarter system. If semester, did you counselor send in your quarter (progress) grade?

@Bxmpsy no it doesnt mean that no one knows why they want the grades and they might want it for different reason from people. My sister goes to another ivy leauge school and they never asked for more grades and she got accepted but they asked other people for them so we dont really know what they mean

@Bxmpsy No, that’s just ridiculous. Don’t worry.

Ok! I won’t read too much on it then. I’m just going to hope for the best and see what happens!

@Bxmpsy same here, no point in ruining the next few days with stress/worry

Does anyone have anecdotal evidence against my speculation? haha (Specifically for Princeton EA)

@Bxmpsy check last year’s scea thread, you’ll get a ton of anecdotal evidence

huge wave of relief @samc24
