Princeton has an awesome number theory program. Do you know what type of number theory you want to study yet? You should try to find professors at various universities who have related research interests to your own and contact them before you apply. So if you were looking to go into, say, analytic number theory, Terence Tao (UCLA) or Bruce Berndt (UIUC) might be some good contacts, while you’d want to contact people like Ralph Greenberg (Washington) and others for algebraic number theory.
