He will enter P as a freshman. It appears he enrolled in college in January, in the latter half of his senior year in high school. Entered the portal 3 months later, committed to us on May 29. The NCAA may consider him a transfer, but, while I may be mistaken, I believe he will enroll as a first semester frosh. P has taken a few transfers like Stenstrom and that superstar pole vaulter, which I thought might herald a trend. But subsequent conversations with a bunch of head coaches and a non responsive reply from Eisgruber makes me believe they will be extremely rare to nonexistent going forward. I hope I am wrong. One problem is in accepting transfer credits; P could not have taken, for example, a consequential varsity athlete transfer who enrolled at another Ivy. Those rules apparently vary among the Ivies.

Princeton’s current transfer policy, agressively pursued by the Admission office, focuses on veterans and junior college transfers, overwhelmingly first generation college students, a good proportion having board scores well above their prospective classmates. The word “athlete” has never been mentioned to my knowledge.

This case involves someone applying late as a freshman, which happens from time to time under peculiar circumstances (i.e. it’s weird).
