At Princeton Splash, we love and appreciate our parents for supporting our students and their academic interests. As a thank you, we offer optional parent programming during the day while students attend Splash. Leading up to and during the program, we ask that parents provide their students with independence and trust in designing a day that aligns with their academic interests and curiosities. For any questions about parent and safety policies, please email splash@princeton.edu.

Are permission forms required?

Yes, we ask that all students under 18 who are attending sign a permission form that we will send out one week before Splash begins. You can fill out this form online or bring a physical copy in-person on the day of the event. Any students who have not submitted this permission form will not be able to participate in Splash.

What classes should my student pick?

Splash is a great opportunity for students to experience a taste of the life of a college student. We value and appreciate our Splash parents for supporting our students' academic interests. At the same time, one important tenet of our program is to enable students to explore their own intellectual curiosities. For that reason, we ask that students pick classes that they find stimulating and interesting.

What can I do during Splash?

Princeton—both the University and the town—offer much to explore while your child attends Splash! Splash will host a morning and afternoon tour—one of Princeton's newly-renovated art museum, and another of Princeton's campus architecture. These tours are not affiliated with University admissions and will focus on University history and art. Additionally, we will partner with local businesses to put together a list of places to explore in town.

On the day of Splash, we do not allow parents to shadow their child during classes due to safety concerns.
