<p>Last year, the earliest date to know the decision was Dec. 11th, which is Sunday this year. When is the earliest date this year? Dec. 10th?</p>
<p>I don’t think anyone can know for sure, and I think the admissions office intentionally keeps it vague so that if the decisions arrive earlier or later than usual, they’re not at fault.</p>
<p>Good point.</p>
<p>Woodrow Wilson…politics…vague…duh…</p>
<p>don’t laugh at me…i still haven’t figured out what “bump” means. HELP MEEEEE!</p>
<p>Bump: the state of being startled; Often accompanied by the feeling of “Whaaaat?” or the feeling of “That hurts…” or the feeling of “Darn it.”</p>
<ul>
<li>Jyclopedia</li>
</ul>
<p>haha…that’s not even close to what I thought it might mean.<br>
so when that zackalacka guy keeps saying “bump it, bump it” he’s just really impressed by all of us?! ;D</p>
<p>it means to move up the thread</p>
<p>“bounce up my post”</p>
<p>that’s more like it…thanks annandale
actually, i like orbit’s def. better :)</p>
<p>Ahhhhhh…!!!</p>
<p>I haven’t gotten an interview call yet, and I was wondering why. So I asked my parents about it, and my mom says, “Oh, no! Your uncle’s disconnected his answering machine for the past two weeks!”</p>
<p>(I gave Princeton my uncle’s telephone number because my family is taking care of a neurotic aunt who thinks the government is stalking her, so she shuts down all power in our house and messes with the telephone lines whenever she can. It’s complicated.)</p>
<p>Anyway… should I give Princeton a call? Give the interview coordinator of the local alumni club a call? (And when’s a good time? Weekday? Tomorrow afternoon?) Wait a bit longer (I mean… maybe they haven’t called in the first place)?</p>
<p>They should have already contacted you. The people organising my interview told me it should be done asap and definately before the end of the month.</p>
<p>You definately should call them and ask whats going on.</p>
<p>um…right if it’s not too late, add me to the roster!
XD
IM me or something if you want to know more, gotta start my other apps this wk or soon :P</p>
<p>lol… it’s definitely not too late, but you’re going to have to find the roster first. I imagine it’s quite a few pages back…</p>
<p>lool,
Finally found it :P</p>
<p>I suppose I should add myself. I’ll add wishmeluck too, so that my number will be a perfect ACT score.</p>

<p>Quite a few of those people have decided to EA elsewhere… I know notfadeaway went with Yale, and koala717 applied as an athlete to Harvard. We may see them yet, though! (Not by any means trying to jinx the early apps.)</p>

<p>My name is Gautam, and I am from India. I hope to major in Physics, preferably at Princeton of course; other passions include creative writing, reading and soccer. For the record, I adore Lord of the Rings and To Kill a Mockingbird, and believe that Christopher Paolini needs to be shot, hung and drowned.</p>
<p>Good luck to all my fellow EDs.
Gautam</p>
<p>OH EM GEE I finally got my call!!!</p>
<p>Woot!</p>
<p>Congrats- im guessin its an interview call?</p>
<p>Welcom Gautam … who is Christopher Paolini ?</p>
<p>Does an interview really matter? My parents are making this a big deal- but I tried to convince them that it won’t affect my admission chance unless it’s awful.</p>
<p>It probably doesn’t matter so much. As someone else said, it simply makes the alumni feel connected.</p>
