On Fees and Eligibility
Q:   How competitive is it to get into a top-ranked course at Princeton from India?
A: 

With 5% acceptance rate, getting into Princeton's programs is too tough for students, especially from India. International students must perform exceptionally in academics by holding 95% or above in ICSE or CBSE board, scoring high on ACT/SAT, and having additional records like Olympiad-level achievements, an exceptional essay, and relevant records of extracurricular activities. Students who have excellent academic records, and align with all the eligibility criteria still have better chances to get in.

Q:   Did Steve Forbes attend Princeton University?
A: 

Yes, Steve Forbes, attended Princeton Jersey. He is the chairman and editor-in-chief of the business magazine, Forbes. Steve graduated with an BA in History, in 1970. He also co-founded the student-run magazine, Business Today.

He also received honorary degrees from Lehigh University and the New York Institute of Technology. Steve also served former US Presidents Ronald Reagan and George Bush as part of the Board for International Broadcasting.

Q:   How do I get into Princeton University from India?
A: 

Indian students need to take care of some basic aspects of their application for studies at Princeton as given below.

  • Aim to score well in academics: Getting good marks is the basic requirement for students to clear.
  • Check eligibility and perform in that direction: Before enrolling in the programs, check the eligibility criteria, scores required, and experience required and try to fulfill the eligibility the university asking for.
  • Take part in Extracurricular activities: Students who have some participation records along with average academics are preferred over the ones who are performing well only in academics.

Princeton University has a lot of fun seminars and activities on campus.
Tips: If you are an immigrant racism will affect you. However, the other students accepted you for who you are. The faculty was very welcoming and supportive. I felt more at home at Princeton than I did at my previous university. I loved everything about Princeton, from the sports to the education. The teachers always made sure that I was keeping up with the rest of the class, and I was always at the top of my game. I am very satisfied with my course and the university.
Likes (Value for money): The experience was worth every penny and taught me a lot about how to save money and invest in the right things. The educational feels were extravagant, but nothing a few student loan and part-time jobs couldn't cover. As an investment in my future, it was one of the best decisions I ever made.
Dislikes (Safety): Racist comment were passed from time to time. I had a few instances myself when I joined the university as a freshman. I was called names by a few but again that's only another challenge we have to overcome to achieve the best versions of ourselves and grow to live up to our full potential.

Study at Princeton for great faculty, high-quality classes, and lots of student amenities.
Tips: Princeton offers need-based financial aid with no loans, and most students receive some form of financial aid. International students can attend a 2-3 day international orientation before freshman orientation week to get help setting up US cell numbers and bank accounts, acclimate to the area, and make new friends.
Likes (Student Life): I loved being on the archery team at Princeton University. There are lots of student groups and on-campus events to join. The nightlife scene is centred around the eating clubs on Prospect Avenue, and most students join an eating club in their junior and senior years instead of eating in the dining hall. However, there are plenty of other dining and social options available.
Dislikes (Public transportation): The Princeton campus is about an hour from New York City, which is easily accessible by train with one transfer at Princeton Junction. While on campus, students can get around with very little public transportation, as there are buses and shuttles operated by the university.
