Princeton, Ivy League

Princeton is an Ivy League university located in New Jersey. Princeton is one of the eight Ivy League universities. Princeton is unique because it negotiates nothing; around the world, it is thought of as one of the most elite research institutions in the world, but even through all that, they have complete and total dedication to their undergraduate students.

To have a higher chance of getting into any university, you would have to have an interview with that school's admission center. At Princeton, interviews are offered to most or some applicants. Usually, a school that provides interviews will do so through alumni volunteers. Any school will do it's best to give an interview for every applicant who wants one.

Princeton is one of the most challenging schools to get into in the country. As of 2018, they only accepted 5.5% of applicants to the class of 2022. This means to have a chance of being admitted. You need to be at the top of your class and have an SAT score of close to 1550 or an ACT score of around 35. This is for the undergraduate level. Princeton's graduates are some of the best in the world in virtually every academic field.

What any university is looking for in an applicant is, AP and honors classes this shows that you challenged yourself academically and succeeded. Another example would be challenging extracurricular activities, for example, a sport. Some other things universities look at is volunteer and work experience, test scores, quality recommendation letters, a well-written essay, talents, and passions.

Some notable alumni from Princeton would be Jeff Bezos, Michelle Obama.

To summarize, it is extremely hard to get into Princeton!

  1. There is no need to describe general admission process if it is just like other schools. Talk about what is unique about this university, like what are top majors or research at the university. Or in Princeton's case, talk about their Ping Pong team. BTW: Michelle Obama is a bad example. Her accomplishment after Princeton is that she married Obama.
