Princeton Early Action Acceptance Rate Drops to 14.6 Percent

Posted on December 13, 2017 by Admissions.Blog

Just 799 students were accepted out of 5,402 applicants who applied to Princeton this fall using the university’s single-choice early action deadline for Princeton’s Class of 2022.

Princeton’s Office of Communications shares that its single-choice early action pool was the “largest in the last seven years, representing an 8 percent increase over last year’s early applicant pool and a 57 percent increase from 2011. The admission rate was 14.7 percent this year compared with 15.4 percent last year, and 21.1 percent in 2011.”

Decisions were mailed to students on December 13 and they are also available online to applicants on December 13.

Of those applicants accepted, forty-eight countries and forty-four states, in addition to the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, are represented. Forty-four percent of the admitted students are U.S. students from “diverse backgrounds,” fourteen percent are the first in their families to attend college, seventeen percent are children of Princeton alumni, and eleven percent are international students.

The gender breakdown of accepted applicants was fifty percent male and fifty percent female.

Interestingly, twenty-one percent of the admitted students indicated they want to study engineering.

In 2011 Princeton began offering an early application round for prospective students whose first college choice is Princeton. Princeton’s early action applicants are allowed to apply early only to Princeton and public colleges concurrently. If admitted, such applicants may still wait until May 1 to accept Princeton’s offer of admission.

If you do get the unfortunate deferral letter, please read this important article: How to Respond to an Early Decision or Early Action Deferral. If you get the stinging rejection letter, please read this article: How to Recover from Early Decision or Early Action Rejection.

If you get in, congratulations!

AI's program really helped me understand the things that are necessary in order to try to be admitted into college. They really understand the process of admissions and will help you through every step, from essay editing to helpful tips for interviews. They really enjoy the work that they put into helping every student trying to get into the college of their choice. I would most definitely recommend this to other people in my community.

My family would not have gotten through the last year without AI. The amount of pressure on students from colleges, their peers, and their schools is immense. AI calmed us. AI guided us. AI encouraged us when getting through seemed impossible. Students need an advocate in what has become a vicious admissions scene/industry. AI is that advocate. Thank you so very much from all of us for being direct and nurturing, optimistic and realistic, and helping us keep things in perspective when every other actor in the process wants to make students lose proper perspective.

We used AI for both of our kids. After helping our kids articulate their interests and identify schools where they might be happy, both had a positive experience with admissions and ended up in the right place.

AI helped me navigate the admission process into graduate school. Not only that; AI also helped me figure out what type of graduate program best suited my needs and would help me reach my goals. There is not enough personalized guidance provided to students in college, and with AI I was able to get what I needed to see what I wanted out of life. Thank you so much for all of your help. I would recommend AI to anyone and everyone who needs career direction.
