Standard Mortgage Program

Description

Through the Standard Mortgage Program (SMP), the University offers favorable mortgage rates and terms to eligible faculty and staff to help members of the campus community purchase homes within a nine-mile radius of Nassau Hall or within the city of Trenton.

The SMP is managed by the Office of University Mortgage Services, which is available to assist faculty and staff interested in purchasing a home in the Princeton area. 

Princeton University employees may learn about local property listings by working with area real estate brokers.
