Yes, we do ask you to arrange your own transportation to and from Princeton. The best airport to fly into is Newark International (EWR) Airport. From there, NJ Transit has a very convenient train to get you right here to campus (http://www.princeton.edu/main/visiting/travel/airports/). From the Princeton Junction train station, there are free TigerTransit buses to campus.

Plan for your arrival to Princeton on or before 2:00PM on Friday*, the programming start time. Programming ends on Saturday night, with hotel checkout by Sunday 11:00AM.

*If your flight travel time will be longer than 5 hours on a direct flight or greater than 5 hours in total with multiple stops, you may be eligible to receive an additional night (Thursday) of accommodation in order to arrive before the program start time. Please contact the Graduate Program Manager to learn more and see if you qualify.

The Department of Chemistry will reimburse up to $500 USD of transportation expenses following appropriate submission of your travel receipts or mileage, as well as completed and signed Guest Travel Reimbursement form, and if applicable, W8BEN form (for international guests). 

Guests are responsible to arrange their own travel to and from Princeton.  Resources to assist in your planning can be found at https://visitingcpanel.deptcpanel.princeton.edu/travel/

We will work with you to split the cost of your visit. Please speak with the Graduate Program Manager prior to requesting reimbursement in this instance. 

• The Department of Chemistry will provide two nights accommodation, room and tax only – Friday and Saturday night, checking out on Sunday morning – for visiting prospective graduate students at the Nassau Inn in Princeton.* Please note that all rooms are double occupancy.
• Plan to arrive earlier than 2:00PM Friday – the program start time. Hotel check-in at the Nassau Inn is not until 3:00pm on Friday, so store your luggage at the hotel if you arrive early or bring it directly to Frick Chemistry. Check-out is Sunday by 11:00am.
• If you would like to stay additional days to become more familiar with the area, you will need to confirm availability and arrange payment for the additional time with the Nassau Inn directly. For equity reasons, the Department of Chemistry will only pay for up to two nights accommodation for each attendee.
• A credit card will be required by the hotel upon check-in. A deposit of $75 per night will be authorized but not charged to the credit card, pending incidental charges.  Should no incidentals be incurred there will be no charge. Hotel parking may be submitted for reimbursement.
• The Nassau Inn offers parking at the hotel. This may be submitted for reimbursement. (10 Palmer Square, Princeton, NJ 08542).

No. We are happy that you are planning to attend this in-person visiting weekend, however the schedule is quite packed from morning until late at night. We want all students to fully participate in the scheduled programming.

Yes, the Department of Chemistry will provide all meals during our scheduled programming.

There is no specific dress code. Please wear comfortable clothes, as you will be busy and moving around for most of the day. You will be meeting with faculty, but they do not require specific attire for meetings. Please bring closed-toed shoes for Friday social activity.
