Rutgers Camden is a great environment that encourages learning. It is a small community that pays attention to all its students whether academically or socially.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Prospective students should try to brush up their communication skills because living in such a small community would require constant communication both with your friends and your professors.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
The Academic aspect of life here is amazing and the environment promotes great learning skills. Since the classes are smaller compared to other bigger Universities, professors seem to pay more attention to their students academically and when it comes to class attendance.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
The dorms consists of two kinds of building living. There is the towers building, this is just like any other dorm in which you have a roommate and a common living room. There is also the apartment building which is built like a normal apartment whereby you own your room to yourself but you share the living area and the kitchen alongside two bathrooms. Also, the dorms are in walking distance of the classes.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
Well, this is one of the not so good feature that the school has. The School cafeteria is the main dining service alongside a Starbucks and Mobile food karts. Since the campus is not that large, there are limitations to the food options.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Since the school is right next to Philadelphia, students tend to take the train into the city at night and when they feel like going out for a guys night or a girls night. Also the train station is in walking distance of the school which makes it more easier to get to where your friends are having fun for the night.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There is a large diversion when it comes to clubs and activities. From School/Academic related clubs like the science club to Cultural clubs like the Black Student Union and the Latin American Society.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
Greek life in school is not a great deal. Don't get me wrong there are Greek Societies but it is not a major part of the school like the academic and cultural societies are. There are about 10 Greek life societies on campus and the do their part in making the school a better place but not in a major way.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
Even though the campus is in Camden, it is one of the safest place that I have been in a while. The school has its own Police department and they are active to protect the school 24/7. There are also escort services whenever a student doesn't feel safe walking alone to a certain part of school at night.
