Princeton University

Princeton University is a private Ivy League research college in Princeton, New Jersey, United States. Established in 1746 in Elizabeth as the College of New Jersey, Princeton was the fourth sanctioned organization of higher education in the Thirteen Colonies and along these lines one of the nine Colonial Colleges built up before the American Revolution. 

Princeton gives undergrad and graduate guideline in the humanities, sociologies, sciences, and engineering. It also offers professional online degrees.
The University has graduated numerous Nobel laureates and many known personalities for example two U.S. Presidents.

There is many reasons to choose this school, one of which being this uni is quite affortable for its quality. Princeton is a great school but what really make it special in comparison to other colleges is their great financial aid package.
Every building has such amazing character. Even the newer building are stylized. Those buildings are found a short walk away from the main part of campus. The carvings, and attention to detail on the older buildings is amazing. It's sad that that kind of artistry is only rarely applied in this day and age. All of the carved animals, people, and shapes are beautiful.

The professors are definitely experts in their field. They are enthusiastic about what they teach and give honest feedback. Grading at Princeton is notoriously "strict" when compared to other Ivies but that's just what comes with attending this school. It can be pretty stressful at times but student organizations seem to be making an effort to make it more manageable. There are several classes one can take and although Princeton doesn't offer majors in things like Theater or African American Studies, one can get certificates in these fields. Many people study in Firestone or the work spaces of their individual res colleges.

However, there are things that Princeton should work on: like economic diversity (or at the least, addressing it) and spiffing up cultural understanding amongs the student body. Also the social life or greek life is almost non existent there.

Overall it is pretty good uni, it has some drawbacks but these are not that important.

Pros
Great online criminal justice degree, it is not as expensive as other top universities, professors are great at teaching and very helpful.
Cons
Poor social life, low economic diversity, only few online courses to choose from.

Overall rating 8/10
