Q: What does Princeton look for in its applicants?

The university looks at each application individually to get a sense of the student's unique set of skills. They don't have a description of the ideal candidate or class. In fact, the diversity of talents, personal qualities, experiences, and points of view in each incoming class is one of Princeton's greatest assets. They hope that all Princeton students possess the following qualities: integrity, a strong desire to learn, and a commitment to both academic and non-academic pursuits.

Q: What tests do I need to take?

Official SAT Reasoning Test or ACT scores are required for a complete application. SAT Subject Tests are not required. Please keep in mind that the College Board English Language Proficiency Test is not a subject area exam or a replacement for the SAT Reasoning Test.

Q: Are there special admission requirements for students applying from abroad?

You must take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), the International English Language Testing System Academic (IELTS Academic), or the Pearson Test of English Academic if English is not your first language and you attend a school where English is not the language of instruction (PTE Academic). International students and U.S. citizens attending high schools abroad face no additional admission requirements.

Q: Are there research opportunities for undergraduates?

In their home departments, all students conduct independent research. The senior thesis is the culmination of this work, in which each student works one-on-one with a faculty mentor. Some students conduct their research in a library or a laboratory setting. Others go on field trips or to work on a creative project like a novel or a series of paintings.
