Plenty of clubs that are inclusive as well as a large range of sports. We have a multitude of resources. Campus life is lively and tries to give students many opportunities to be a part of the activities at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. They pride themselves on being a school that is willing to push their students to be well educated to help them with the future.

NJIT has a beautiful campus with an abundance of areas, quiet and public, to study and do work. Many teachers have concern for their students and give them as many resources necessary to succeed. There are many tutoring, office hours, and extra help available to students in order to help them succeed in their academics. NJIT always has events going on on campus where students are encouraged to participate in. Some of the required classes are a bit unnecessary, particularly in freshman year. They can be a bit redundant and not relevant to your major-focused classes. The systems are typically organized, so time here shouldn't be too stressful, and if it is, there are many ways to alleviate that stress.
Great college! Well organized and awesome teaching skills. Excellent business program! As a student at NJIT i have learned a lot from all my classes, professors do a great job at explaining the course.
