Wow, I never expected to receive so many responses. I understand @LBad96 's point, I too would like to leave New Jersey and many of my classmates feel the same way. Based on everyone’s advice, especially from the parents, I think I will eliminate Penn State as it’s similar in cost to UDel and Tulane and I would rather attend the latter two schools. Additionally, I know that as a Political Science major, especially if I don’t switch majors, law or grad school could be in my future. So when making a choice, I know I need to consider that as well.
@LuckyCharms913 Thank you for your advice, it’s truly appreciated.
@LucieTheLakie I understand his points on New Jersey, and I realize that his experience may have been different from my own. However, his opinions aren’t stopping me from considering Rutgers, as I realize it’s the best option financially. Thank you!
@mathprof63 Thanks for the link, I’ll be sure to check it out.
@LBad96 I understand your hatred of New Jersey, I really do. Also regarding the reputation of women at Rutgers, I’ve heard that as well and don’t particularly love that the school is often referred to as “Slutgers”. Thanks for your opinions, and I hope you continue enjoying your school!
