Incomparable

Princeton professors are nothing short of brilliant. Your teacher may be (probably will be) pioneers in his or her field. However, some lecturers have their shortcomings, and academic prowess is no guarantee of a good lecturer. Nevertheless, Princeton students are privileged to be the recipients of a vigorous intellectual experience. The workload though is nothing short of Herculean.

Excellent Level of Diversity

There are students of many different nationalities, ethnicities, locations and cultural backgrounds here at Princeton. Students commonly interact with others from different backgrounds, and I have learned a lot about cultures other than my own during my time here.

Techno-Savvy

Computer clusters are like weeds here; in or in close proximity to every dorm, both Mac and Windows. Most students have their own computers though so the competition for clusters is far from cutthroat. Fast and ubiquitous WI-FI is on campus. Printers are often conveniently nestled near to clusters though having one in one's room is always a boon
