Where You Live

Undergraduate life at Princeton begins in the residential colleges. All first- and second-year students live in one of the six colleges: Butler, Forbes, Mathey, Rockefeller, Whitman or Wilson. Many juniors and seniors also draw into the four-year colleges: Mathey, Whitman and, starting in 2009, Butler.

Princeton prides itself on its variety of dining environments, from the modernist Butler (top) to the gothic warmth of Rockefeller.
