Princeton has yet to release their acceptance rate for the class of 2027, so I’ve used their class of 2026 acceptance rate instead. The Daily Princetonian, the school’s newspaper, estimates that the 2027 acceptance rate hovers around “5.82 percent”. I was also unable to find a more updated transfer admissions rate than is included in the CDS. https://www.dailyprincetonian.com/article/2023/03/princeton-ivy-day-admissions-2023

Princeton requires that all first-time freshman applicants submit a “graded written paper” alongside a set of Princeton-specific financial aid documents. https://admission.princeton.edu/apply/graded-written-paper
