At Princeton you’ll solve problems, develop your voice, engage in respectful dialogue and action and uncover new passions. Our liberal arts curriculum emphasizes creativity, innovation and collaboration through the humanities, arts, social sciences, natural sciences and engineering. The choice of what to study is yours, and you'll have the time and freedom to decide. With 37 majors, 38 minors and 26 interdisciplinary certificate programs in two degree programs, A.B. (Bachelor of Arts) and B.S.E. (Bachelor of Science in Engineering, students do research towards a thesis in their senior year with a faculty mentor and embrace meaningful new interests along the way.

Princeton faculty members are deeply engaged with their students and readily available for individual mentorship and conversations. They are innovators, teachers, listeners and supporters. Students also benefit from extraordinary academic resources and low student-to-faculty ratios. Alumni often say the most valuable thing they learned at Princeton is how to learn – how to think critically, question their assumptions and develop innovative ideas of their own.

With 200+ buildings across 600 acres, students living in our residential campus enjoy the vibrant community of downtown Princeton, and also have easy access (about 55 minutes) to New York City and Philadelphia. And while you embrace campus and uncover the world, Princeton will support you financially. In fact, we’re often less expensive than a state institution. Princeton’s no-loan aid policy replaces student loans with grant aid that students do not pay back – this makes it possible to graduate with little to no debt. A Princeton education is more than a far-fetched idea. It’s a real, actual and affordable possibility.
