WHAT I LIKED
RU-N is a very diverse campus and I have met such great people. The academics are great and the professors are wonderful and understanding.
WHAT I didn’t LIKE
If commuting, it can be tricky to find parking. The campus is in the street so you will see many locals of Newark.

WHAT I LIKED
Rutgers Business School has been amazing overall, always make sure you check RateMyProfessor before taking a class, other than that I've been loving every second of it.
WHAT I didn’t LIKE
I didn't like certain professors and how poorly they did their job. But then I realized it wasn't completely Rutgers Organization's fault.
