Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Princeton University sits on a 500-acre campus along the shores of Lake Carnegie in Central New Jersey. It’s one of the oldest university campuses in America and its oldest structure, built in 1754, is also its crown jewel – the distinguished Nassau Hall. Having been burned down twice, its latest iteration is in the Italian-Renaissance style.

Other notable buildings on the Collegiate Gothic campus include the Princeton University Chapel – the world’s third-largest campus chapel – and Lewis Library, a modern Frank Gehry-designed building. Besides the stunning architecture on the Princeton campus, it is also praised for its meticulously landscaped grounds with acres of park-like green space, small garden spaces, and pedestrian-friendly walkways.
