Since reinstating their transfer program in 2018, their partnerships with community colleges have been critical in helping to attract exceptionally well-prepared students from a range of backgrounds. The visit started with an admission information session highlighting the broad range of programs, service opportunities, diverse co-curricular offerings, and the Princeton experience.\u00a0 The availability of\u00a0 financial assistance was quite encouraging, making it possible for students to graduate debt-free. In fact, most families with incomes up to $100K a year pay nothing for tuition, housing and food.<\/p>\n<p>Following the information session, the students were given an extensive tour of the campus, featuring historic classical buildings with intricate Gothic architecture. East Pyne Hall is one of the most recognizable campus buildings, having been featured in various Hollywood movies, including most recently Oppenheimer.\u00a0 Nassau Hall, flanked by the famous bronze tiger statues, predates the United States and currently houses the University&#8217;s administrative offices. Besides the gorgeous architecture, there is a lot to appreciate about Princeton, most notably the intentional focus on a meaningful undergraduate collegiate experience. Students are encouraged to engage in campus life, with more than 500 student organizations for them to actively pursue their passions. For students interested in transferring to Princeton, they can be reassured that it is attainable, accessible and affordable.<\/p>\n<p>For questions about the transfer admission process, please contact\u00a0uatransfer@princeton.edu<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about the Honors College at HVCC, visit the\u00a0Honors College webpage\u00a0or email\u00a0honorscollege@hvcc.edu.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_167672\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-167672\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-167672\" src=\"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/Princeton_Oct24_AP_LH_KB-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-167672\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Visit to Princeton University, (left to right): Amanda Palmar &#8211; Honors College Political Science Program&#8217;26, Lamyaa E.Hassib &#8211; Honors College Director, Kamellia Barrrett &#8211; Honors College English Program&#8217;25<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_167675\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-167675\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-167675\" src=\"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/Princeton_Oct24_East-Pyne-Hall-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-167675\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">East Pyne Hall, Princeton campus<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_167678\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-167678\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-167678\" src=\"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/Princeton_Oct24_Nassau-Hall-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-167678\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nassau Hall, Princeton Campus<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Published:<\/strong>\u00a0Mon, 07 Oct 2024 12:39:34 +0000 by\u00a0l.hassib<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Students from the Honors College were cordially invited to Princeton University to learn more about the exceptional academic and&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2086,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[161],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-22764","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-student-announcement-college-related"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22764","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2086"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22764"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22764\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22764"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22764"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22764"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
