Rutgers University-New Brunswick Top Questions

the parties

I brag about the food in the dining halls and how it is better than theirs.

It is very diverse and the classes are very good. It is tough but still a lot of fun.

Rutgers is a very excellent school. It is one of the best schools in New Jersery. Most of the teachers here are well known outside Rutgers. It is a diversed school with different cultural backgrounds and belief. The birthplace of college football.

I brag about how great our campuses are. At Rutgers, we have 5 smaller campuses on the New Brunswick/Piscataway campus. Each of them has different things to offer, and I love the variety. I can get pizza on Livingston, or I can get a hamburger from Wendy's on College Avenue. There is so much to do, so I love bragging about Rutgers.

Living in a city allows for a lot of diversity of culture, food and social activities. It's close enough to home that I can visit my family and friends whenever I like, and proximity of a train station makes it incredibly easy to get to Manhattan or Philadelphia

I love the atmosphere that Rutgers has. You can walk outside and get that big city feel but at the same time feel perfectly at home in a small town because of the comraderie and school spirit that is all around. It really is the best of both worlds.

the respect of going to the biggest university in New Jersey

The sheer amount and variety of classes available (quite impressive).

There are many research opportunities available for students on campus. There are many biotech and pharmaceutical industry jobs concentrated in the area around New Brunswick. There are so many faculty at Rutgers that, compared to other schools, it is fairly easy to find at least one faculty member who focuses in your area of interest. Faculty are open to teaching interested students individually, which is a tremendous advantage over schools where it is more difficult to stand out. The sheer volume and diversity of the student body means there is a club for every interest.
