Princeton University

Chartered in 1746 as the College of New
Jersey, Princeton was British North America's fourth college.
First located in Elizabeth, then in Newark, the College moved
to Princeton in 1756. The College was housed in Nassau Hall,
newly built on land donated by Nathaniel and Rebeckah
FitzRandolph. Nassau Hall contained the entire College for
nearly half a century. The College was officially renamed
Princeton University in 1896; five years later in 1900 the
Graduate School was established.

Fully coeducational since 1969, Princeton now enrolls
approximately 6,400 students (4,535 undergraduates and 1,866
graduate students). The ratio of full-time students to
faculty members (in full-time equivalents) is eight to one.

Today Princeton's main campus in Princeton Borough and
Princeton Township consists of more than 5.5 million square
feet of space in 160 buildings on 600 acres. The University's
James Forrestal Campus in Plainsboro consists of one million
square feet of space in four complexes on 340 acres.

As Mercer County's largest private employer and one of the
largest in the Mercer/Middlesex/Somerset County region, with
approximately 4,830 permanent employees - including more than
1,000 faculty members - the University plays a major role in
the educational, cultural, and economic life of the region.
