Rutgers University - New Brunswick

A big problem with Rutgers is that it is too big. Don't expect to receive any personal attention unless you can make it to the one or two hour window of office hours (usually scheduled in some obscure location like the hallway of the Johnson and Johnson building in my case.)

Also, just a tip, make sure you put all of your classes on your home campus if you can. It may not seem like a big deal to have to take a bus around, but consider this example: I had a chemistry review session that I needed to get to because I had some questions about the material. I got out to the bus stop about an hour before the session was supposed to start. Gradually, the stop filled up with people and by the time 2 buses came and went, I was still stuck standing there. I got to my session about 20 minutes late and didn't get a chance to ask the questions I had because I was all the way in the back corner of the auditorium. If you plan on commuting, start saving for parking tickets now. You may literally drive around for hours without finding a spot in your assigned zone. And a course in heiroglyphics may help you figure out the parking signs (employees only in red zones, students with permits A and C in yellow zones between 6am and 6pm, no parking overnight, open parking after 7pm except on weekends, etc.) God forbid they should build another parking deck.
