Hey everyone, I've heard that some schools send really cool acceptance packages to students who've been admitted. Does anyone know what kind of stuff Princeton includes in their acceptance package? Just curious!
Hey there! Congrats on your acceptance to Princeton! Every school's acceptance package is slightly different, but Princeton is known to provide admitted students with a variety of materials in their package. Here's a general rundown of what you might find in your Princeton acceptance package:
1. Acceptance letter: This will be an official letter from the Office of Admission, congratulating you on your acceptance and providing important information about your admission.
2. Welcome booklet or brochure: This publication typically gives you an overview of the University, information on academic programs, campus life, resources, and student organizations.
3. Admitted Students website access: Princeton has an Admitted Students website that requires a login, which you will receive in your acceptance package. This site will provide more detailed information about the school, resources, and access to events specifically for admitted students.
4. Financial aid information: If you applied for financial aid, you should receive a financial aid package detailing your expected family contribution, grants, scholarships, work-study, and loan options.
5. Admitted students events: You may receive an invitation to attend Princeton Preview, a special event designed for admitted students to learn more about the school, meet current students and faculty, and explore the campus.
6. Instructions for enrollment: If you decide to attend Princeton, your acceptance package will include instructions on how to confirm your enrollment, pay your enrollment deposit, and officially become a Tiger!
7. Swag: Some acceptance packages include fun items such as a university decal, a pen, or even a small flag featuring the school's mascot. This might vary, though, and there's no guarantee for these little extras.
Keep in mind that due to the pandemic, some schools may have shifted more information and materials online or to email or portals. Still, Princeton should provide you with all the necessary information to help guide your college decision. Good luck, and once again, congratulations on your acceptance!
