New College West (known as Residential College 8 until 2021) is the future eighth residential college at Princeton University. It is scheduled to be opened before September of 2022.[1] The construction of New College West will help 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 will be built adjacent to New College East, and share the same dining facility.[2] New College West will house students displaced by the demolition of First College, which is to be replaced with Hobson College in 2026.[4]
