Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Religion/Religious  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright Now that I am near retirement, I realize Princeton had little to do with my future endeavors. I have no contact with Princeton except for alumni news, where I see that most of the graduates from 68' are smug and happy and living completely different lives tan myself.

I just never felt at home here even though I grew up nearby. The school into itself, as are the students and staff. i ended up graduating from a smaller school in Vermont that is known for its excellent writing program. i was much happier. This might be the right school for some people, but not for me. Campus Aesthetics: A, Education Quality: F Have a Question?

They want to wear the ugly orange sweatshirt and say they went to Princeton. There is a distinct culture of exclusivity here that will never change, no matter how many first ladies write theses about lack of diversity. Princeton is very hard to get in to, but once you are here, you don't have to work as hard as you did in high school (unless you are a math/engineering major). I wish i had gone to a smaller school where I could feel like the professors and administration really cared about me. Ultimately, a waste of money.

I dropped out after my freshman year. I failed everything that I tried and no one was there to help me. I became extremely depressed and spent most of time in the women's center because they had free meditation classes. Many of my teachers told me that I was stupid, directly and indirectly. My math professor said that I was immature and that I should probably drop his class. He had a thick accent so I could barely understand the snide comment let alone his lectures. When I asked to borrow notes for the same math class people flat out refused. Finding study groups was very difficult because the students were clicky and competitive. I failed a geoscience test and when I went for help from the professor all he had to say to me was "deal with it."- so If you're looking for a nurturing academic environment, Princeton is not the place. If you do end up going to Princeton, the best advice I could give is to GET HELP as soon as you get on campus. Get to know the deans of your college- they are your advocates. Check out counseling services- believe it or not everyone on campus sees them. Go to the study groups in Frist- they are crucial for survival. Make sure you are aware of all of the student resources right away. By the time I learned about how to help myself, it was too late.
