“Through the thick and thin, I look back and realize how much I have grown from the young student who first walked on campus. At Princeton, the wide-open doors of opportunity are everywhere; I just feel lucky to be a part of all of it.”

“Declaring pre-medicine at the beginning of my sophomore year and finishing all the requirements by the end of my junior year has been the most challenging and rewarding experience that I’ve had at Princeton. I proved to myself that I can accomplish anything I put my mind to, and I positioned myself that much closer to becoming a physician—just fifteen more years.”

“One of the things that I’ve enjoyed the most at Princeton is the diversity. I am involved in many student organizations and groups both as a leader and as a member, and each enables me to interact with people who are very different from me culturally. These organizations allow us to interact and connect through our common interests.”

“I’ve charted a somewhat unorthodox course in my studies by taking a number of classes outside of Classics, and my department has truly welcomed and encouraged these pursuits. Without the ongoing support of my professors—and without the tremendous financial support provided by the University—I would never have discovered the law, legal history, and a whole world of burning questions.”

“The people are my favorite part of Princeton, without question. As a student performer, I've been particularly blown away by how many of my professors want to know about my performances, and who come to as many events as they can… They are scholars who are truly dedicated to teaching as well as to their own research, and I continue to enjoy my interactions with them inside and outside of the classroom.”

“One of the things that I’m most grateful for is the flexibility that a liberal arts education at Princeton provides. I am an engineer, but I am also very interested in philosophy, history, economics, and religion, so I appreciate being able to take classes in those subjects too.”
