Rutgers University Reviews

"The University of New Mexico has a lot to offer; however, you have to be willing to seek out the hidden gems. Some of UNM's instruction can be extremely lackluster as you progress through general graduation requirements, but once you find your niche and your field of study, it is a great place to be."

"Rutgers University is easily one of the regions top universities for the sciences. Not only was my degree liked upon favorably by recruiting companies, but I still receive complements when I mention that I have a science degree from Rutgers. I was able to work for the University while studying to improve my skill set and I was hired a month before graduation."

"Rutgers University was a wonderful school. There is diversity everywhere from faculty to students. It is a huge campus with great opportunities. Although, it is a big campus there are many school organizations that help you feel apart of a smaller and closer community."

"Rutgers University, New Brunswick is an excellent state university. It is very diverse, with many helpful resources and intellectual faculty. Molecular biology and biochemistry is an excellent major for anyone interested in research. The professors in the department are very knowledgeable and helpful. I learned many fascinating things about our body at molecular level through the courses in the major. I highly recommend this major for anyone who is curious about how our bodies function at a molecular level. It is a credit intensive major with many rigorous coursework."

"The MFA program at Rutgers University was an incredible investment in my life and career as an artist. I am so thankful for the training I received under the leadership of D.H. and B. C., and so many more incredible faculty members. I know that the department is now under new leadership but I would recommend anyone check it out."

"I absolutely LOVED my experience at Rutgers University. I was in the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences where I achieved my degree in biomedical science. The professors were very knowledgeable and highly distinguished faculty. Many of the professors teach at the medical and dental school on campus. I was challenged in my courses, but with hard work and great time management I was able to achieve my goal and get my masters degree. The faculty was very helpful and were always available to help. The advisors wanted what was best for the students and guided us if we were feeling overwhelmed. This is a wonderful program that acts as a stepping stone for a future in professional school."

"The political science department and Rutgers provided amazing networking opportunities, leading to many of my internships. Rutgers is connected to so many of the most important people in New Jersey and national politics. Succeeding at Rutgers felt easy."

"Rutgers provides a diversity of learning options that allow traditional and non-traditional students alike to achieve their education goals. I pursued a degree in Labor studies to gather a better understanding of the "human condition" as it relates to work and the economy. Additionally, I chose Rutgers to further my understanding of how to quantify these facets of people and their work by pursuing their Master of Information program with a focus on Data Science. I hope to be able to apply some predictive analytics to the art of management and Labor interaction."

"Rutgers provided me with a boundless amount of diversity and opportunities. Through my time as a Douglass Residential Scholar and a School of Arts and Sciences Honors scholar, I was given the opportunity to experience both large classroom environments and smaller, more intimate academic settings with my like-minded peers. The professors are very passionate about what they teach and they are extremely invested in student success. I really loved how the sectioning off of campuses allowed for smaller and more intimate experiences within a much larger institution. I learned a great deal and was given both academic and extracurricular opportunities (mentorship, tutoring, etc.) that expanded both my personal horizons and my resume. I would recommend others to attend Rutgers for either their graduate or undergraduate education."

"The University prepared me for the workforce. Being based in NJ allows the students to take advantage of several paid internships through the local pharmaceutical companies. The University also offers the "Bridging the Gap" paid internship every summer --- these experiences allowed me to gain significant hands-on quantitative/qualitative research skills which employers like. I had a job offer prior to graduation and I've been working since."

"I have really enjoyed my time at Rutgers-New Brunswick. The mentors and colleagues are dedicated, knowledgeable, and helpful. I've also been very pleased with campus facilities, financial aid, academic rigor, and safety. I know that I am being well-prepared for my future career."

"I highly recommend this program. If your goal is to use this program as a stepping stone for Med school this program will prepare you. The teachers and administration are helpful and very receptive to student feedback. The curriculum is rigors but there allows for a good work life balance."

"I was so fortunate to have attended Rutgers for my undergraduate degree. As a local New Jerseyan, it was a tough decision. There are dozens of colleges and universities in the tri-state area alone, and the level of competition among schools along the East Coast is intense. Having good grades and excellent recommendations, I knew I had choices. I flew as far as Arizona and aspired as high as Princeton! But in the end, the culture of inclusiveness, of academic prowess dating back to the the pre-Revolutionary War area, all for a more than reasonable price in comparison to like schools made choosing Rutgers a no-brainer. The research opportunities, student involvement activities, and networking possibilities are boundless in this massive five-campus school. I highly recommend Rutgers to anyone, especially if you live out of state!"

"Rutgers' undergraduate Political Science program helped pave the way for fine tuning skills of critical thinking, writing, and hard work. Memorable professors, current events, and historic precedent all made this program engaging and interesting. This is why I chose to further my education by entering the Masters program for Public Administration 2017 at Rutgers."

"I loved my college experience at Rutgers. I loved the dorms and meeting all different types of smart people ranging from students and professors. I loved the food, and I loved the quality of education. I loved the physics professors and classes. The lessons hit the right spot. They left you feeling satisfied, as if you just had an awesome meal. Definitely recommend RUTGERS UNIVERSITY PHYSICS DEPARTMENT. They will not disappoint you. REPPING RU ALL THE WAY!!"

"Rutgers University is a fantastic diverse school that will help you prepare for your future. My classes, internships, and field work were key experiences that Rutgers provided me to explore my passion and find my path. I made lots of connections for networking and now attend an MSW program because of my extensive resume and skills learned throughout my four years. I had an amazing time professionally and also made many life long friends. Rutgers is the perfect school because you get to develop your career, but also have so many opportunities to get involved on campus."

"Rutgers was great for my MBA, classes for into my schedule so I could work and go to school and was able to even take a few classes online"

"Had a good experience. Multiple classes with my cohort made it more comfortable. Cohorts were created keeping specialization in mind. Professors were very helpful."

"Expensive and requires a lot more credits than other university offering the same degree."

"I thought they were only interested in a check. Didn't learn anything. I learned much more while obtaining my bachelors degree"
