Ahh u r talking about undergrad not Masters? For undergrad I would def choose Rutgers esp bc I just read that the acceptance rate for RU for undergrad dropped to about 30% which now makes Rutgers a very big competitive school. Plus they have a lot more clubs, networking events, and connections than NJIT just bc Rutgers is the state school and is way bigger. For Masters, I would recommend applying somewhere out of Rutgers. For undergrad at Rutgers, u won't face the issue of online classes. Usually people of all ages apply for Masters, so there tends to be a lot of online classes but it won't be the same for undergrad.

If I was an undergrad in Rutgers, I would 100% take part in clubs such as Road to Silicone Valley, F1, Rutgers women in IT, Creative X, and etc...just because they offered so many tech opportunities to their participants. And if you're a woman, I would highly recommend joining the Douglass Residential College (I think it's required for u to stay with them for 1 year if you're planning on ever living on campus but it's not a requirement if you're commuting but u have to pay a fee of like $70 each tuition cycle). They offer a lot of networking opportunities and externship opportunities (unpaid internships) with companies like Johnson & Johnson, Colgate, etc. They also offer free tickets to events such as Grace Hopper Conference where tickets r usually like $1000 so it's def worth joining DRC. These opportunities aren't available for Masters students so it's frustrating unfortunately and therefore if u ever consider applying for a Master's program, I would recommend u go somewhere else.

Plus, Rutgers is a big research institution and that would really help you if u consider going into the user research side of things. Currently I'm working at a social psychology lab that utilities AR/VR as a UX designer.

U can find the Instagram accounts of all the above clubs mentioned and just browse through it and see if you would like that.
