As expected.

Generic rejection letter. Out of all the places I applied, Princeton was the place I expected not to get in, as it was not that great of a fit and I sent a lesser quality application to them due to the early deadline.

Not a great fit and I didn't contact my POI before I applied so I totally expected this. I'm weirdly happy to get my first rejection: It means this process is coming to and end!
