Princeton University does not require an initial deposit for undergraduate applicants who are admitted under regular decision. However, early decision admits must submit a non-refundable deposit to secure their spot. The deposit is typically a few hundred dollars, though exact amounts may vary yearly.
Graduate programs may have different requirements, often including a deposit upon acceptance. This fee is usually applied toward tuition. Prospective students should check Princeton’s official website or contact the admissions office for the most current details, as policies and amounts can change.
