How Do I Accept?
What needs to be submitted to Princeton University to accept the offer of admission?
If you are accepting the Graduate School's offer of admission, the items below MUST be received by the dates listed. Contacting the department that you have been admitted to does not hold your place at Princeton. The Graduate Admission Office must receive your signed original Admission Reply forms no laer than April 15 or your offer of admission may be rescinded.
Due April 15
- Admission Reply Forms (3 copies) - Graduate School, Budget and Department copies
- Photo ID Cards (pdf) & Passport-quality Photos - For more information please refer to What are the Photo ID Cards used for?

Return these forms directly to:

- Housing Application Electronic Form
If you wish to apply for housing, you must complete and submit the application online by 11:59:59 p.m., April 15, to be guaranteed a place in housing.
Princeton makes every effort to ensure that all first-year students receive University housing, but requires that they meet the April 15 housing application deadline. Therefore, it is critical that your housing application is received by April 15. Housing applications received after April 15 are put on a waiting list regardless of when a student is admitted.
