We expect applicants to have taken courses in the following, if possible: English, mathematics, foreign language, laboratory science and history. (Full details are given on the Academic Preparation page.) In addition, we look for applicants who have challenged themselves with honors, advanced placement (AP) and dual-enrollment courses available to them.

- 우리는 학문적 우수성과 지적 호기심을 가진 학생들을 찾습니다. 우리는 또한 강한 개인 및 과외에서도 성취감을 가진 학생들을 찾습니다. 가능하면 영어, 수학, 외국어, 과학 및 역사와 같은 과목을 수강해야 합니다. (자세한 내용은 학업 준비 페이지에서 확인하실 수 있습니다.) 또한, 저희는 상을 수여 하였거나, Honors,  AP 및 복수학위를 했던 학생들의 지원을 원합니다. 우리는 IB,  A 레벨 또는 다른 학위도 평가합니다.

Essays

We ask applicants to write two essays as part of the application. Students interested in engineering are asked to write an additional essay. This is your opportunity to display your best writing as well as your ability to convey ideas in your own voice. While you may want to have a parent, guidance counselor or teacher proofread your essays, it is extremely important that the essays be your own work. Intellectual integrity is a fundamental principle at Princeton. When you complete your application you are asked to sign a statement certifying that all the information on the application, including the essays, is your own work. Princeton may withdraw the application or revoke the admission of any student whose essays have been written by another source, including essays found on the internet.

- 우리는 지원자에게 신청서의 일부로 2 개의 에세이를 작성하라고 요청합니다. 엔지니어링에 관심이 있는 학생들은 추가적인 에세이를 작성 해야 합니다. 자신의 목소리로 아이디어를 전달 할 수있는 능력뿐만 아니라 최고의 글쓰기를 보여 줄 수있는 기회입니다. 학부모, 지도 카운슬러 또는 교사가 에세이를 교정할 수는 있지만, 에세이를 자신의 글로 만드는 것이 매우 중요합니다. 지적 완전성은 Princeton의 기본 원칙입니다. 신청서를 작성하면 에세이를 포함한 신청서의 모든 정보가 자신의 저작임을 증명하는 성명서에 서명해야 합니다. Princeton은 인터넷에서 발견된 에세이를 포함하여 다른 출처에서 에세이가 작성된 학생의 입학 신청을 철회하거나 취소할 수 있습니다.

Our Advice

Instead of worrying about meeting a specific set of criteria, try to create an application that will help us see your achievements — inside the classroom and out — in their true context, so we can understand your potential to take advantage of the resources at Princeton and the kind of contribution you would make to the Princeton community. Show us what kind of student you are. Show us that you have taken advantage of what your high school has to offer, how you have achieved and contributed in your own particular context.

- 특정 기준을 충족하는 것에 대해 걱정하는 대신 교실 내외에서 귀하의 업적을 실제로 볼 수 있는 애플리케이션을 만들어보십시오. 당신이 어떤 학생인지 보여주세요. 고등학교가 제공해야 하는 것 이상으로 자신의 특정한 맥락에서 어떻게 성취하고 기여했는지 보여주십시오.

We look for students who make a difference in their schools and communities, so tell us about your leadership activities, interests, special skills and other extracurricular involvements. Tell us if you’ve had a job or a responsibility in your home. Most Princeton students were academic standouts in high school. Most of them also invested their energy and talents in significant ways outside the classroom. We want to know what you care about, what commitments you have made and what you’ve done to act on those commitments.

- 우리는 학교와 지역 사회에 변화를 주는 학생들을 찾습니다. 그래서 리더십, 관심 분야, 특수 기술 및 기타 과외 활동에 관해 알려주십시오. 직업이 있었거나, 집에서 책임이 있는 역할을 맡았는지를 알려주십시오. 대부분의 프린스턴 학생들은 고등학교에서 학업 성적이 우수했습니다. 그들 대부분은 교실 밖에서 에너지와 재능을 투자했습니다. 우리는 당신이 무엇에 관심을 갖고 있는지, 어떤 약속을 했는지, 그리고 그러한 약속을 지키기 위해 무엇을 했는지 알고 싶습니다.
