Discus: Ivy League Schools: Princeton University: RD Admission Impossible for non-Athlete/non-legacy?
By Lindseylujh (Lindseylujh) on Sunday, August 22, 2004 - 12:55 am: Edit

Princeton has a reputation for being absolutely impossible to get into unless you apply early, are a legacy, or are a recruited athlete. I will be none of these. I feel like I have some unique attributes, but I don't know if they will merit even a possible acceptance during the regular round of admissions. Can someone please look at my stats and evaluate my chances? They can be found at: http://www.prstats.com/2009/display.php?user=lindseyluJH

Thanks everyone.

rd for non-legacy non-jock is difficult, but not impossible. your stats look really good, and you should certainly apply. go tigers!

I think you have a better chance than I had - and I got in. Though I applied early decision, I was deferred and then accepted regular.
