<p>hey guys! can anybody help me out here? 
:</p>
<p>assuming i have all the requisite AP credits to graduate in 3 years, how tough is it still gonna be to do so? would it still be tougher than graduating in 4 years even though i can skip 8 courses as a 3-year candidate?</p>
<p>would it be tougher than at other schools, say non-HYPSM brown/duke/dartmouth? (i know some ppl there graduating in 3 years and i’d like to compare)</p>
<p>You should double check what I say for accuracy, but I believe I have both heard and read that it is no easier to graduate in 3 years than in 4, and it’s actually tougher because I heard it doesn’t free you from the distribution requirements. I suppose that just means you have less room for electives. It is discouraged at Princeton to graduate early, and I assume this is one, if not the, reason.</p>
<p>it’s tough because of the independent work- I wasn’t ready to do junior independent work as a sophomore.</p>
<p>Thanks for the answers! </p>
<p>I was sent a packet including the 2007-2008 Undergraduate Announcement, Freshman Seminar booklet, and Study Abroad booklet. Do you know when they’ll give us the 2008-09 one with the latest information / course offerngs? By mail or when we arrive on campus?</p>
<p>It’s available online… just google Princeton registrar and it’ll pop up somewhere… I’m too lazy to post the link!</p>
<p>This is a lot easier than the unwieldy course catalog pdf.</p>

<p>by when do we have to decide our classes ?</p>
<p>The first class registration period is usually a few weeks after midterms (late April for the fall semester, early December for the spring semester). A second period starts after classes start, and goes for about two weeks, but after that, editing your schedule costs $45/change (this includes PDFs, drops, etc.).</p>
<p>As freshmen, however, you’ll just pick your classes once you get on campus, during orientation week.</p>
<p>Hello,
My name is Elmedina and I come from Switzerland. I’m doing an apprenticeship in a Swiss bank and I’m going to the professionnal school too.
For the 15th May I have to do a term project for my diploma in English related to the English-speaking world and I have chosen the Princeton university. I will present the university (history, organization, student life, etc.)</p>
<p>I need to have contact with Princeton university students and to ask them some questions:</p>
<ol>
<li>Name of student</li>
<li>Age</li>
<li><p>Faculty</p></li>
<li><p>Why did you choose the University of Princeton?</p></li>
<li><p>Is the level of studies very high and difficult?</p></li>
<li><p>Is there a good atmosphere with the students and the teachers?</p></li>
<li><p>What are your plans after the university?</p></li>
<li><p>Would you recommend this university to other people and why?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>My e-mail adress is: <a href="mailto:elme_vej@yahoo.fr">elme_vej@yahoo.fr</a></p>
<p>Thank you very much if you can help me before the 15th May !!</p>
