Yeh College[2] (provisionally known as New College East until 2022, and Residential College 7 until 2021) is the seventh residential college at Princeton University. It opened at the beginning of the academic year in September 2022.[1] The construction of Yeh College increased the undergraduate student body population by 10 percent, or 500 students. It aims to be LEED Gold certified.[3] Deborah Berke Partners are the architects of the new buildings.[4] A sister college, tentatively titled New College West, was built adjacent to Yeh College, and shares the same dining facility.[3] New College West houses students displaced by the demolition of First College, which is to be replaced with Hobson College in 2026.[5]
