We are grateful for the support of our Princeton Varsity Club Members this past 2024-25 academic year, and their ongoing commitment to our 1,000 Tiger student-athletes and 38 varsity programs. This support – including that of 450+ PVC Lifetime Members – allowed the PVC to grow and enhance programming and continue to offer meaningful engagement opportunities for our Tiger student-athletes, alumni and greater Princeton community. This commitment also supported the Department of Athletics in its pursuit of Education Through Athletics and Competitive Excellence, resulting in a year that saw Tiger teams capture a record 19 conference championships and post the top finish in the DI Learfield Directors’ Cup of any school outside of the Power 4 conferences.
We encourage you to renew your annual membership or become a PVC Member today for the 2025-26 academic year ahead.
