Princeton was once considered luxurious, but now little of that hype remains. Today, Princeton is characterized by violence, aggression, and trauma. Daily protests echo through the campus, accompanied by a significant police presence. Academic pursuits have taken a back seat. It feels as though Princeton, once known for its high academic standards, has been transformed into pawns in a political game in the Middle East

Students thinking of going to Princeton should ask for information about the school’s far-reaching disciplinary system. Pledges who were hazed, over a dozen, suspended. 150 members of ivy on probation for drinking. Unlike any college I have ever heard of, in terms of punitive attitude against its own students! Also ask about suicide rates.

Horrible administration that is unsupportive, aggressive, and tries so hard to prevent you from graduating. The rules are onerous, and exceptions are NEVER made. In fact, the rules are unclear and constantly growing for academic requirements.
Your Dean of your Residential College is your academic adviser, and she may act liken a tyrant.
STEM education is so onerous, students can expect to spend 50 hours a week minimum on labs and problem sets, plus lecture time. Yet students leave the courses having minimal actual grasp of the content. Because so much is expected for weekly assignments, actual learning is very little.
The social dynamics are terrible. Students who know one another ignore eachother when walking past eachother. I was laughed at by a group of girls for saying hello. Students have no loyalty to one another. They will do anything to get into Ivy, Cottage, and TI.
The only good thing about this place is the prestige of the name.
