rutgers new brunswick v temple
hi!! i'm already committed to temple but i just got off the waitlist for rutgers nb and i dont know where i should go, for context im a business major and plan to go to law school!
my pros for temple are that:
- #1 major (business law) + im in the business school (good for backup)
- i like the city
- new experience
- campus life (dorms, bathrooms, food)
- i already have a roommate + social life is good
- easy to study abroad
- all my college credits transfer
- perfect distance from home (1hr)
- campus is pretty & walkable
my cons for temple are that:
- saftey (is it that bad being in north philly?)
- ranking (not top 100)
- family prefers rutgers
my pros for rutgers are that:
- ranking (40)
- more known academics
- slightly cheaper (in-state)
- family wants me here
my cons for rutgers are that:
- not the major i want (in the environmental and bio science school) as an environmental and business econ major
- i'd need to transfer to another school to get a good major (either sas or rbs)
- bad campus life (dorms, bathrooms, food)
- not the best social life
- too close for my liking (not necessarily a con)
- bus system is bad
- none of my college credits transfer
