Congratulations to Princeton’s Class of 2020

We found some of the best reactions of our new Tigers-to-be

On March 31st, the rest of our great Class of 2020 was accepted from a pool of 29,303 students.

More stats: 50.6 percent of admitted students identify as people of color. 49 states are represented plus students from DC, Guam and Puerto Rico and 66 other countries. 11.2 percent are legacies, but 17.5 percent will be the first people in their families to attend college!

Although we all know Princeton students never procrastinate with things like Twitter, we did find a few reactions.

There were a few trolls…

And some sore losers…

BUT WE CAN’T WAIT TO WELCOME THE LUCKY 6.46 percent!

Sara don’t underestimate yourself. Princeton would have picked LESS THAN 6 and a half. Since there are no half people accepted to Princeton University, we’ll round down and say SIX. You are a star.

Some were very relatable.

I’m still surprised I got in tbh.

The Hogwarts ambience is a real people pleaser.

I didn’t even know we had academic scholarships, so double congratulations to this guy!

Congratulations to this girl’s bf. But he’ll definitely be cuter if he chooses Princeton.

Does it ever really feel real?

Despite the record low acceptance rates, some dreams came true this year. Can’t wait to see you on campus next year!
