Arriving at Princeton


 

How do I get to Princeton?

Extensive directions to campus via several modes of transportation can be found here.

May I bring a car to campus?

Beginning this year, freshmen will not be allowed to bring cars to campus. For more information on campus transportation services, see the office of Public Safety's Shuttle Services and Campus Parking sites.

Bikes are a popular way to get around campus. Soon after you arrive, you will have an opportunity to register your bike and purchase a U-Lock, which is recommended by the office of Public Safety.

Is it easy to get to New York, Philadelphia and beyond?

New Jersey Transit has a train station right on the edge of campus. Students have easy access to New York, Philadelphia, and points beyond, as well as to the Air Train rail station linking the New Jersey Transit rail line and Newark Liberty International Airport. Many residential colleges charter buses to New York and Philadelphia for cultural and athletic events.
