[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have two (normal unhooked) kids who were accepted into Princeton REA, high school CO 2023 and 2025. Happy to answer questions.[/quote]

Why did they choose to REA to Princeton?  Did they attend a feeder school?  Did they have a good experience at Princeton?  What were their majors?[/quote]

Sorry, haven't checked this forum in a while.

1) My family has always been interested in "go big or go home." More specifically, HYPSM or state school. We definitely did not want to ED anywhere because we didn't want to be pigeonholed in one place. Of the HYPSM schools, my kid wanted to focus on well-rounded schools (e.g. not Yale or MIT) that were still strong in STEM. Harvard didn't seem like a great cultural fit (though both ended up being accepted during RD). My older chose Princeton, and my younger applied for the sibling legacy boost.

They did not attend a feeder school, just regular public high schools.

Only one of my kids ended up committing, but has loved their experience there. Studies economics, working at a finance internship this summer.
