Visit Activities:


Information Session: No - 1st I took on this trip. The admissions officer was great maybe trying too hard to convince us about the pros about Princeton. Usual session and comfortable.

Campus Tour: No - The tour was good but maybe too much walking. The tour guide was good and knew his information. Full tour of the campus and all the important buildings and information included.

Campus:

Did not really meet students but as I walked by they all seemed very friendly and I had no problems, not even a shove or push when the place was full.

Only met with Basketball Sports staff. They where incredible. A lot of experienced, well organised and very nice to us. Top class coaches and trainers but don't know about academic staff.

Old style buildings. Clean and very well maintained but weren't crazy clean either. The maintenance was great but the dorms could have been cleaner. No complains.


Dormitories:

Stayed in Freshman dorms but it was a suite. 2 floors. The rooms maybe too small but If moved in there the main place would be great.The only bother where the sizes of the actual rooms not the suite.


Security/Safety:

Campus Visit Notes for Princeton University


Visit Description:

It was a great experience but still have not decided. The campus was excluded enough compared to other universities but still pretty integrated. All beautiful and great academic courses. I don't know yet but it is clearly a top option university.

Great campus, great courses, maybe too integrated, great buildings.
