New College West is the sixth residential college at Princeton University. [1] The construction of New College West helped to increase the undergraduate student body population by 10 percent, or 500 students. It aims to be LEED Gold certified.[2] Deborah Berke Partners are the architects of the new buildings.[3] New College West is adjacent to Yeh College, and shares the same dining facility.[2] New College West houses students displaced by the demolition of First College, which is to be replaced with Hobson College in 2026.[4]
