I got bang for my buck! You get more or equal of what you've paid for. Not very expensive, so I have less and manageable student loan debt.

Competitive athletics and great opportunities for academics.

NJCU is a great school. They offer a variety of academic programs with good classes. They have huge parking lots with shuttles, a nice cafeteria, updated computer lab, and lots of resources for students including a health clinic and tutoring HUB. The only downside is the location but campus is very secure and I personally have never had a problem.

worst school
Overall 1.1
NJCU at Wall is horrible. Above anything else, you don't get the knowledge you are hoping to get and that you payed for! Very disorganized, and teachers are genuinely not concerned with what you get out of their courses. Many times teachers call out or they plainly don't teach the subject of they don't know how to teach the subject.

Calling this school a joke would serve as an understatement. Worst decision of my life. I transferred to Rutgers after two semesters. I know I attained zero knowledge at this school and therefore am having to play catchup at Rutgers due to it. Mind you I bs'ed here and got A's. Level of meaninful educuation = 0. English dept = elementary at best.

I go to the Wall campus and whoever is in charge of it either hates us or doesn't care. Core classes are hardly ever offered, the new professors that they hire are rude. It is so disorganized and uncared for that even the councilors make jokes to us about it. I regret ever enrolling and will absolutely not be attending NJCU for my masters.

The campus could be cleaner.

This school is a joke and waste of time and money. Professors do not know how to teach and could care less whether you pass. There will be no job opportunities if you attend this school.
Overall 1.5
Doesnt feel welcoming at all.
Overall 1.5
Food is very expensive and yucky nasty! Other lazy students will drag you down. Class schedule is disorganized especially a week or day before the semester starts. Notoriously cancel class before you knew it. No help on internship. They love to keep you as their student even after you retire. Note: Students equates Profit.
