New reception area for Admission Office

Princeton NJ—Prospective students and their families now can begin their introduction to the Princeton campus in Clio Hall. Earlier this month, the Admission Office opened a reception area on the second floor.

The new space can accommodate more than 90 people, compared to the former reception area in West College that held approximately 30 visitors. It is part of a larger renovation of Clio, which will include the relocation of the Graduate School’s offices from Nassau Hall.

On a recent afternoon, Inger Lofgren (pictured on right), a Princeton admission officer, talked with prospective students and their parents. The reception area is open from 8:45 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays.
