A searchable map of university can be found here: http://www.princeton.edu/~pumap. By Car. From the New Jersey Turnpike heading south, take Exit 9 (New Brunswick) and follow signs for Trenton (Route 18 north, then Route 1 south). For first-timers, navigating to Route 1 south from this exit can be difficult. Take the first right after toll booths, up ramp and onto to 18 north. Immediately, shift to lane second from left and, less than half a mile from entry point, exit left (you'll be heading over a Route 1 overpass). Stay in right lanethe exit to Route 1 south is on your right just beyond the overpass. For directions to campus and parking from Route 1, see below. From Interstate 95 heading north from DC/Philadelphia, cross Scudder Falls Bridge into New Jersey (Interstate 95 becomes Interstate 295 several miles into NJ), and exit at Route 1 north (exit 67). For directions to campus and parking from Route 1, see below. Another option from 95 north is Route 206 north. Following Route 206 north, travel through Lawrenceville to Princeton. Where Route 206 meets route 27, head right onto Nassau Street, the town's main street. (Note that visitor parking is not available near the center of town; we recommend that you approach the campus from Route 1 north.) If you are coming from southern New Jersey, we recommend that you take 295 north (instead of the NJ Turnpike), exiting at Route 1 north. From Route 1 (north or south), exit at Alexander Road overpass and follow signs for Princeton. At Faculty Road (traffic light, gas station) turn right and proceed to the traffic circle. Turn into the campus (Elm Drive). At the next traffic circle follow signs for visitor parking. Note: Instructions for driving to Princeton are available by telephone. For a recorded message, call 609-258-2222 using a touch-tone telephone. Parking Visitors may park in all numbered Princeton University lots on weekends. We recommend parking in Lot 10 on William Street.

At Faculty Road (traffic light, gas station) turn right and proceed through the traffic circle. Follow Faculty Road to the traffic light, and turn left onto Washington Road. Follow Washington Road past the traffic light for Prospect Avenue. Turn right on William Street, and left into Lot 10. If you cannot find parking in Lot 10, try Lot 10A on the opposite side of William Street. McCormick Hall is just a few minutes walk from Lots 10 and 10A. By Train Trains to Princeton Junction leave New York City's Penn Station and Philadelphia's 30th Street Station regularly. From Princeton Junction, a two-car train (known as the Dinky) makes the five-minute trip to Princeton. The Dinky does not meet every train, so consult a current schedule before making travel plans.

A round-trip ticket from NYC to Princeton will cost approximately $14.00. From Philadelphia's 30th Street Station, take SEPTA to Trenton, NJ. Then take New Jersey Transit to Princeton Junction and change for Princeton. Tickets will be about $18 round trip from Philly to Princeton. By Airplane Newark International Airport is most convenient to Princeton. New Jersey Transit recently added train service on the Northeast Corridor Line to Newark International Airport; using Air Train (airport monorail), connect to NJ Transit for service to Princeton Junction and Princeton. Shuttle service between the airport and Princeton is available through the Princeton Airporter (their courtesy phones are available at the airport terminals' limousine counters). These vans arrive at and leave from the Nassau Inn, located in Palmer Square (one block from the University). Buses from Newark International Airport travel to Penn Station in Newark and to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in New York City. The Princeton Airporter also offers limousine service to and from New York's Kennedy Airport.
