U.S. News & World Report
Princeton is a world-class teaching and research university with a profound and distinctive commitment to undergraduate and graduate education. Through its groundbreaking financial aid program, Princeton ensures all qualified students who are accepted can afford to attend the University and graduate with little or no debt. Most families with incomes up to $100,000 a year now pay nothing for their student to attend Princeton, and families earning up to $300,000 a year may qualify for financial aid. Princeton recognizes that talent exists in all sectors of society and seeks to attract exceptional people of every background. Students’ experiences inside and outside the classroom prepare them for service, leadership and lifelong learning. Princeton emphasizes creativity, innovation and collaboration with a program of liberal arts in the humanities, arts, social sciences, natural sciences and engineering. Princeton’s low student- to-faculty ratio means students are able to develop close working relationships with professors, who are leaders in their fields. Our more than 5,500 undergraduate and 3,200 graduate students are part of a vibrant campus community, and students stay connected to a Princeton community that spans the globe long after they have graduated.
