Juniors Finalist Chloe Kim Verbals To Princeton For 2025

NEW COMMIT: Princeton University has received a new verbal commitment* for Fall 2025 from Chloe Kim of Glen Rock, New Jersey. Kim is one of the top recruits in her class.

She will join Sophia Sunwoo, Sydney Willson and Savannah Skow as a member of the Tigers’ Class of 2029.

Regarding her commitment, she said:

“I am so honored to announce my verbal commitment to the admissions process at Princeton University! Thank you to my family, friends, teammates, and coaches for supporting me throughout this process. A special thank you to coach Abby for giving me this incredible opportunity. GO TIGERS!!”

Kim, who does her club swimming with Scarlet Aquatics, placed fourth in the mile, fifth in the 400 IM and nine in the 500 free at Juniors East back in December. She had a great showing at Junior Nationals last summer, taking seventh in the 400m IM, ninth in the 1500m free and 12th in the 800m free.

Her best times include:

1650 free – 16:16.21
1000 free – 9:42.69
500 free – 4:45.95
200 free – 1:48.70
400 IM – 4:11.49
200 IM – 2:00.01
200 back – 1:57.22
200 fly – 1:59.10
200 breast – 2:16.12

Kim is a great pickup for the Tigers, as her times in the mile and 500 free would’ve scored in the top-8 at the 2024 Ivy League Championships.

*IVY LEAGUE DISCLAIMER:* A “verbal commitment” does not guarantee admission. An Ivy League coach cannot guarantee admission but can only commit support in the admissions process.
