Princeton University's endowment returned just 3.9% for fiscal year 2024, significantly trailing its Ivy League peers, primarily due to an overreliance on venture capital and insufficient exposure to booming tech stocks. This performance follows a 1.7% loss in fiscal 2023 and is below the expected 6% return. Additionally, declining donations, which fell to $66.7 million, may impact the university's financial aid programs, which rely heavily on endowment support.
Princeton University’s endowment, valued at $34.1 billion, reported a 3.9% return for the year ending in June, marking the lowest performance among Ivy League institutions for the second consecutive year. The fund distributed $1.7 billion for the university's operations while maintaining its overall value.

Oh snap! Failed to reconnect with the server. This is typically caused by a longer network outage, or if the server has been taken down. You can try to reconnect, but if that does not work, you need to reload the page.
Oh man! The server rejected the attempt to reconnect. The only option now is to reload the page, but be prepared that it won't work, since this is typically caused by a failure on the server.
