Review of New Jersey Institute of Technology

from Newark, NJ

Describe your college in three sentences.

NJIT is a fantastic university. It will take a year to get used to all of the things that happen on campus; however, once you're set, everything goes smoothly. Plus, they've got some great food that is served here!

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Make sure to keep up with your courses. Also, memorize your professors' office hours and their locations so you may ask them any questions when the time comes for an exam or a quiz of some sort.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

The professors here at NJIT know what they are talking about. There are the few exceptions, but the amazing professors outweigh the few. Make sure you keep up, because some will not stop to help you up during the lectures.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

I may commute from home, but most of my colleagues that live on campus say that it isn't so bad. There are a few problems here or there, but a simple call to the campus' maintenance team or campus life representatives and the problem is fixed in no time.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

I just explained that the food is great. Expensive, but great. If you want cheaper food, grease trucks usually stop on a crossroad on campus, and they are quite famous.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

There are many things to do there. Signing up for a sports team, going to the game room, etc. It's up to you.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Any student who loves technology and games will love this university. 10/10. - IGN.* *It's a joke. Still a fantastic university anyway.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

Amazing clubs are everywhere in that school.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

On-campus police are always on guard. The only problem is that the city of Newark itself is not so safe, especially at night. You're fine on-campus.
