- If you pre-ordered linens (e.g. sheets, towels, blankets, and pillow) and are staying on-campus, they will be placed in your dorm room in advance of your arrival. When you depart, you will return your linen rentals to the registration table at Whitman College. Please confirm that a crew member marks your items as returned.
- As a reminder, there will be a $50 charge per set of bed linens that are not properly returned at the conclusion of the event.
Here is a list of local hotels that have historically been serviced by Reunions Shuttles.Limited on-campus housing will be allocated via lottery in mid-February. Those who receive beds will be emailed, and room assignments will be distributed by University housing representatives at check-in.For those who indicate interest in on-campus housing but do not receive beds, an email will also be sent in mid-February offering alternative housing options (the class is investigating housing at Rider College for these classmates and their guests).
Please notify registration as soon possible. They will check to see who is next on the waitlist queue. If you need to cancel after April 30, 2025, and if there is a taker on the waitlist, you will be refunded your housing fee. If not, we still have to pay Princeton for the bed, and we will not be able to refund the fee.
We will have a limited allotment of on-campus beds. On-campus beds provide a more affordable housing option than staying at a nearby hotel. However, we want you to understand some important considerations regarding on-campus beds:
- We cannot guarantee specific rooming assignments, and assignments will not be known until shortly before the event.
- We will do our best to keep you and your guests together first, followed by requests to be with other members of the Class.
- Nevertheless, your party may be split across multiple rooms.
- Linens can be rented at registration. The package is $30 for the weekend, and includes two sheets, a pillow and pillowcase, a blanket, two bth towels, and a washcloth. Alternatively, you can bring pillow/sheets/towels yourself.
- Beds are purchased during Reunions Registration. If you have already registered for reunions but want to add on-campus housing to your registration, please reach out to Registration
- Note: You may purchase one (1) on-campus bed for each 3-Day (Full Weekend) Registration package ordered (applies for both adult and child registrations); to clarify, if you are purchasing a Saturday-Only registration ticket (and no 3-Day tickets) you will not be eligible to purchase an on-campus bed.
- If we run out of on-campus beds, you will have the option to sign up for the wait list; you will be contacted later should beds become available.
- NOTE: On-site housing accommodations are dormitory-style rooms which will require the use of a shared bathroom and shower facilities that are not part of the room itself.
- On-campus bed details: $150 each; Linens can be rented for $30, or you can bring pillow/sheets/towels yourself.
- On-site housing may be located anywhere on the Princeton campus.
- On-site housing and room assignments will be arranged by the University (not by our classmate volunteers).
- On-site housing and room assignments will NOT be known until you check-in on campus at Reunions.
The class is offering classmates who are staying in campus housing the opportunity to rent bed linens as an alternative to purchasing sheets and towels from the U-Store (which are often thrown away after the weekend, adding to textile waste and landfill usage, as many organizations do not accept donated bed linens). Princeton University is not offering linens for the 25th this year, but we felt it was important enough, for convenience and for environmental friendliness purposes, to pursue this on our own. Linens can be rented at registration. The package is $30 for the weekend, and includes two sheets, a pillow and pillowcase, a blanket, two bth towels, and a washcloth. Alternatively, you can bring pillow/sheets/towels yourself.
- Hundreds of classmates will enter the lottery, and typically, twice as many people apply as there were beds allocated to our class by the University. Supply exceeded demand, and housing prices are fixed by the University.
- We are investigating housing options at Rider University in Lawrenceville to help those who did not get housing through the lottery. The pricing is slightly different than Princeton University pricing, but still much more affordable than hotels. Rider has air conditioning, linen rental will be included, and it is on the shuttle route. Those who do not get on-campus housing need to indicate interest in Rider by the specified response deadline, and a survey link will be provided in an email.
- You can also consider local hotels that might still have room block availability from the hotels list that we created this past summer.
- Closer to Reunions, the University maintains a list of people looking to swap out hotel rooms.
