Princeton University Graduate School Admission Results

Thank you for applying to Princeton University's Graduate School for the 2023-24 academic year. While I assure you that the materials you submitted were carefully reviewed by the faculty in the Department of Anthropology, I regret to inform you the department did not recommend your admission for the upcoming academic year. The number of admission offers available at Princeton for entering graduate students is extremely limited, and we cannot offer admission to all applicants who are well qualified. Indeed, many departments have applicants who could be admitted if it were possible to accommodate additional students. Our decisions take into account not only the applicants' merits but also the suitability of the programs to the candidates' expressed interests. Our goal is to achieve a sound match between the strengths of our programs and the interests of the relatively small number of outstanding students that can be accommodated. Unfortunately, due to the volume of applications which we receive, it is not possible for the department or the Graduate School to go back and review applications to justify the denial or offer advice on fortifying a future application. I wish you success in your plans for graduate study and thank you for considering Princeton University.

Notified to check portal via email. Not surprised since I never connected with a professor there. Good research/work experience but no publications. Also rejected from Harvard but accepted to Brown!
