Chartered in 1746, Princeton is the fourth-oldest college in the United States. It is a member of the Ivy League.
The campus of 500 acres is located in Princeton, NJ, a town of approximately 30,000 residents situated about an hour’s train ride south of New York City and an hour’s train ride north of Philadelphia.
The university focuses mainly on undergraduate education. Princeton has no medical, business or law school unlike other Ivy League schools. The Graduate School does offer advanced degrees in the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences and engineering.
There are approximately 5,044 undergraduate students enrolled at Princeton and 2,450 graduate students as of 2010. Students come from 98 countries. All undergraduates are required to write a student thesis before graduation.
Princeton has an annual operating budget of $1.37 billion.
In spring 2010, the faculty (including visitors and part-time faculty) totaled 1,132, including 492 professors, 86 associate professors, 171 assistant professors, 15 instructors, 258 lecturers, and 110 visitors.
Seventy-seven percent of the professorial faculty is tenured. Excluding visitors, approximately 320 members of the faculty are women, and 182 are identified as members of minority groups. There were 127 tenured women on the faculty in spring 2010.
