Princeton University

Princeton University was chartered in 1746 and is the fourth-oldest college in the U.S. Princeton’s students benefit from the extraordinary resources of a world-class research university and a low student-to-faculty ratio, which enables the development of close working relationships with professors who are leaders in their fields. Princeton’s liberal arts curriculum emphasizes learning, creativity, innovation, and collaboration. Courses are offered in the humanities, arts, social sciences, natural sciences, and engineering. The university also provides students with the chance to work closely with the distinguished faculty, who routinely push the frontiers of human knowledge with their research and scholarship. Princeton is home to over 500 student organizations, 38 sports clubs, and several campus centers. The university’s 600-acre campus is located in a cosmopolitan town in central New Jersey, with easy access by train to Philadelphia and New York City.
