A visit to our campus will likely give you a good feel for all that Princeton has to offer.
Princeton University's park-like campus is revered for its architectural and natural beauty. Our 500-acre residential community is located in central New Jersey in a cosmopolitan town of approximately 30,000 residents. The University is centrally located between Philadelphia and New York City and is accessible by many means of transportation, including Amtrak and NJ Transit. Princeton University has its own NJ Transit train station on campus.
The Office of Admission holds general admission information sessions throughout the year. You may combine an information session with a student-led campus tour, which is run by the Orange Key Guide Service. The School of Engineering and Applied Science offers tours of the engineering quad during the academic year. Please note: We do not conduct on-campus interviews at Princeton.
Our 23-stop virtual tour of the main campus is available in four languages — English, Korean, Mandarin and Spanish — and is accessible via your desktop or smartphone. (It's available as virtual reality too!) The virtual tour is led by students and includes 360-degree panorama photos and videos.
We recommend you consult our list of local resources, including restaurants and lodging, as well as directions to Princeton’s campus.

Visitor parking is located in Lot 23 along Faculty Road on the south end of campus. Please follow signs for admissions visitor parking.
