Princeton University is one of the prestigious members of the nine colonial Universities located in the United States. It is the fourth oldest institution in the world and is famous worldwide for its magnificent campus, rich history of notable alumni (including 43 Nobel laureates and 209 Rhodes Scholars), and unique schools of teaching.

Like the other Ivy League Universities, Princeton also offers need based financial aid, and no scholarships based on merit. Their financial aid packages meet the needs of both U.S. and international students alike using a combined range of scholarships and awards from donors and sponsors alike.

Princeton proudly meets 100% of the financial needs of every single student accepted in their degree program.
