Princeton Prize in Race Relations

The Princeton Prize in Race Relations, sponsored by Princeton University, recognizes high school students who are actively working to improve race relations in their schools or communities. This program is intended for students who have taken initiative on projects such as dialogue programs, anti-racism campaigns, equity or inclusion initiatives, advocacy, or community-building efforts that address racial justice and understanding. Applicants should be able to clearly describe the impact of their work and their leadership role.

Each year, the program selects regional winners and certificates of accomplishment from locations across the United States. Selected students may be invited to participate in a symposium at Princeton University, where they can discuss their projects, share strategies with peers, and learn from scholars and practitioners who focus on race and equity. This experience offers an opportunity to deepen understanding of race relations and to build a network with other student leaders.

Participation and recognition in the Princeton Prize in Race Relations can strengthen a college application by demonstrating sustained commitment to social justice, leadership in complex and sensitive areas, and the ability to create measurable change beyond the classroom. Students who have already begun meaningful work in race relations and want to reflect on, share, and expand that work are strong candidates to apply.
