The school is both as large and as small as you make it. Yes, the Rutgers is huge, and first year Intro classes fill and entire auditorium each, but the school makes it very easy to search out programs, clubs, and activities that you are/would be interested in.

The diversity of students, faculty, and surroundings at Rutgers University achieves its uniqueness. Rutgers New Brunswick consists of five different campuses - Cook, Douglass, Busch, Livingston, and College Avenue. Each campus houses a variety of people with different ethnic, religious, and geographic backgrounds. Likewise, each of the campuses has distinctive environments. There is no other school in the country where a student can claim that they have a farm, an all female school, an urban city, a WW2 Army Camp, and a Big 10 Athletic Stadium. Lastly, Rutgers University and I share the same birthday, November 10th. Revolutionary for 250 years!

While at Rutgers I had the unique advantage of being part of a tiny art school where I could get undivided, valuable attention and input. At the same time, I had the resources of a major university at my disposal. This meant that while focusing and being challenged on specific artistic pursuits, I could enhance my overall experience by enrolling in diverse courses that added to my artistic understanding of the world and what it was I was after in growing my own work.

Rutgers is a much bigger school than those I considered; almost 30,000 undergraduates attend my school. The school cannot, and will not, baby sit its students. This has forced almost every student here to gain a sense of independency and self-reliance in order to succeed. This isn't to say Rutgers doesn't have wonderful resources and advisors, which it certainly does. But, each student is going to have to take it upon themselves to utilize these resources to the best of their ability.

Rutgers University is one of the biggest research-based universities in the world. This has many advantages: one - faculty members are very diverse, which prepares one for the real world. two - there are many opportunities for research, whether it be research assistant or research volunteer. three - some professors briefly touch upon their research in classes which produces alot of interest from students.

Rutgers is a research-based university that allows many hands-on practices.

I have so many options in what to major in. That is why I came here. Plus, I get in-state tuition and it is less expensive to pay for (though still expensive)

The most unique thing about my school is the diversity in the the school body. There is no other univerisity or college that has been able to manage to bring together so many people from different areas of life, the country, and of different races and religions. It is refreshing to have such diversity and is a social learning experience, especially for those who have not had the opportunity to meet people with such different opinions on various topics of life.

Very tolerant towards religion and ethnic backgrounds. Can meet people from all walks of life at this university.
