Princeton University is a private Ivy League research college in Princeton, New Jersey. Established in 1746 in Elizabeth as the College of New Jersey, Princeton was the fourth contracted foundation of advanced education in the American settlements and accordingly one of the nine Colonial Colleges built before the American Revolution. The foundation moved to Newark in 1747, then to the current site after nine years, where it was renamed Princeton University in 1896. The present-day College of New Jersey in adjacent Ewing Township, New Jersey, is a random establishment. Princeton had close binds to the Presbyterian Church, however has never been subsidiary with any section and today forces no religious necessities on its understudies.
