<p>gellino,
Of course, you’re right about the driving time issue. But I think that fans of these more distant colleges believe that the trip to their school would be worth it for a Jersey kid. And some might even think that getting more than 5-6 hours away from Jersey would be incredibly broadening (not to mention highly desirable 
)</p>
<p>Anyway, OP, take a look at the thread on social life and compare the comments of others. And if anyone wants to add their “rankings” to that thread it would be appreciated.</p>
