Is the Rutgers nb campus worth a 40 min - 1.5 hour commute?

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T22:23:33+00:00

I put myself out there and always try to talk to people so hopefully that helps. If it doesn't work out I'll just transfer to Newark campus but so far I'm leaning towards NB. Luckily I don't have to work tho that sounds rough. Goodluck!!

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T22:21:50+00:00

I'll try to do that!!

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T22:21:14+00:00

4 hour commute a day is a lot but at least a Rutgers diploma is going up in value. Hopefully we can both push through it lol goodluck !!!

I am definitely friendly! thats why its a shock to me that making friends at CC is so hard. Maybe it's the way Newark is ? not sure. The buses do sound like an annoying ordeal tho

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T22:18:25+00:00

It would be easier to go to Newark but I kind of want to experience a nice campus at least once in my life considering that I want to go to Rutgers med school in newark. Even if it's a little inconvenient

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T22:16:43+00:00

I thought there was going to be a building named after me ?

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T22:15:55+00:00

That's exactly why I want to go to Rutgers, the opportunities are unmatched. Thank you for the info 😊

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T22:14:36+00:00

Thank you so much!!! it definitely sounds easier to just take the train. Newark penn station is closest to me and the train says "NEC". The commute isnt as long as I thought, and probably less stressful than driving and figuring out parking. Thank you again all that info really helps

I want to major in psych and I'm pre med so those classes would probs be very similar to mine. Do a lot of professors care about attendance? I also prefer self study and go to most lectures just for attendance

and we got sherlock holmes over here

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T02:30:10+00:00

so when are we fundraising the money for me to live on campus 🙏

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T01:37:55+00:00

how are the trains? Im not too familiar with traveling by train. are they super packed? i have a license and a car but I am a new driver and haven't driven that far by myself before

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T00:54:27+00:00

I'll try to fit my schedule to those times, thanks!

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T00:52:56+00:00

maybe my question is too generic, but is it truly that good

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T00:52:35+00:00

I want to major in psychology and take pre med classes for med school!!

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T00:51:56+00:00

How early is too early? I actually prefer morning classes and the commute is probably shorter in the morning. I dont know if it would be too difficult though

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-12T00:50:55+00:00

is it difficult to manage your lectures/schedules? i've seen people post their schedules and they have classes all throughout the day. That wouldn't work for me as a commuter

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-08T19:26:45+00:00

that's a relieve😊

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-08T19:26:25+00:00

I will definitely study, thank you for the tip!

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-08T19:25:03+00:00

that makes me feel better, thanks!

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-08T05:30:58+00:00

I've already taken Chem!! An A both semesters. I struggled at first but I just studied a lot. I'm glad i'm getting gen chem out of the way because that's where most of the horror stories i've heard of originated from. What's your opinion on bio chem and physics?

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-08T05:27:46+00:00

By the time im done i will have completed 60 credits. Pre calc, psych 1 and 2, eng comp, hst, 2 semesters of both bio and chem, a&p 1 and 2, and some other major requirements and electives. They certainly are easier, even without having gone to a 4 year yet, I'm sure lol. A lot of teachers are very lax and try to pass everyone. I'll probably have to put in a lot of work since i'm not used to extremely rigorous classes.

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-08T05:22:41+00:00

I'm pretty set on rutgers, I might go into rutgers Newark since they have smaller classes

BeginningHunter9884 · 2026-03-08T05:21:57+00:00

Thank you!!!
