First of all I think it is the perfect size. With 6,000 undergrads, it is small enough where you get individual attention and get the opportunity to know a decent amount of people. Also, it is big enough to have a variety of majors, interests, classes and the opportunity to meet new people. If you're interested in your typical New Jersey public school (gigantic, miserable, chaotic, low calibre of student, suitcase school), then you're looking at the wrong school. I feel that the stereotype of NJ schools really hurts us. Overall, the professors are very good. There is always the occassional dumb one, but that's everywhere. The facilities are fabulous and new minus 2 dorms and Forcina (Education building). There is a very strong Division III program in addition to club and intramural sports. There are over 180 organizations on campus, so if you complain about a poor social life, that's 100% your fault. There are a lot of awkward people, but there are so many normal people. I have a wonderful group of friends and acquaintances I've met through many organizations and classes. The first 2 months of my freshman year I went home every other weekend, but after that I go home for the weekend about every 2 months. Greek life is here but not overwhelming which is good. There are no official frat/sorority houses so parties are generally at houses or somewhat 'frat houses.' Don't try to party on campus. CA's (our version of RA's) and campus police are too strong a force but it is good that it keeps the dorms calm which most people don't appreciate enough. Ewing, NJ, where the college is located is not an exciting place and borders on Trenton. Fortunately, there is Route 1, Princeton, New Brunswick, New Hope PA, Philadelphia and New York City. You're not going to find a carnival of activities that close to campus. All are cheap and very easily accessible. Although in-state tuition is about $22,000 which I think is pricy but still good in comparison to other NJ schools. It's hard to get scholarships unless you have a 1300+ SAT and you'll probably only get $5000. Financial aid and student accounts are always chaotic and sometimes difficult to get help from. It is a ridiculously good price for the quality of school and name. We're ranked with public schools like UCLA, UNC and UVA. Overall, it is truly and excellent institution with an excellent reputation, opportunities, motivated people, and many resources |
