Columbia University
Graduate School
New York, NY
Rating 4.56 out of 5 77 reviews
Graduate Student: Fantastic program at a great school! The administration is wonderful, and you feel completely supported every step of the way. Going back to school is a HUGE decision, but they have smoothed much of the road.
Classes are challenging and designed to make you think critically about the topics and events being discussed. Profs definitely expect a certain level of discourse, and readings are not optional, but you learn so much!

New York University
Graduate School
New York, NY
Rating 4.54 out of 5 98 reviews
Master's Student: I love the professors at NYU. So far they have been extremely knowledgeable about the material and have a lot of real world experience they draw from. The readings and materials are interesting because of how well it is taught. Collaboration and discussions among classmates always adds interesting thoughts, ideas and perspectives because of all the diversity in industry, age, and experience among the students. I also love the speakers and events NYU hosts. However the cost is extremely high and my only negative.

Stevens Institute of Technology
Graduate School
Hoboken, NJ
Rating 4.82 out of 5 11 reviews
Master's Student: One thing that really stood out to me about Stevens Institute is their willingness to accommodate to their students, the program I am currently enrolled in provided us the opportunity to meet with the professors face to face despite us being on opposite ends of the country. This really made for a more engaging classroom for everyone to participate, especially with the professors' willingness to prompt engaging questions with thought-provoking solutions. The mixture of in-person and online avenues really helps with providing flexibility to a working student. I would suggest this school to anyone looking for well-round graduate school.

Yeshiva University
Graduate School
New York, NY
Rating 4.53 out of 5 17 reviews
Doctoral Student: I will be started classes Fall 2020, so my experience with this university thus far are limited. At this moment, I have generally positive impressions of the faculty and student body. The faculty do try to engage students to foster intimate relationships and help promote a positive overall experience for their students. I appreciate the drive for collaboration among students as it attempts to eliminate the cohort competition sentiment that can often be felt among university students. Additionally, the faculty make an effort to make collaborative decisions with its students, making them feel heard and valued.

Graduate School - Newark, Rutgers Unversity
Graduate School
Newark, NJ
Rating 4.5 out of 5 22 reviews
Graduate Student: Loved the diversity and inclusion at this University! This is one of the most diverse college campuses in the United States and promotes inclusiveness and tolerance among students and faculty members. Great urban campus in the heart of the financial district of Newark. There is new construction happening all the time and there are great spots for coffee, lunch, dinner, as well as night life. Rutgers provides renowned education for its students and most professors deeply care about their students. There is an issue with parking on campus, but I hope that will be rectified soon.

Rating 4.53 out of 5 34 reviews
Master's Student: Began my journey in August 2020, right in the middle of a pandemic. Although it was my first time taking online courses the professors were nothing but helping hands and looking to aid in each students success! I don’t know what I would have have done had I lacked the support.

The New School
Graduate School
New York, NY
Rating 4.67 out of 5 15 reviews
Master's Student: I am a graduate student in the Parsons School of Design and a MFA major in the Design and Technology program. My career interest is to become a video game developer. I just finished my first semester at the New School and so far I like it. The professors and my classmates have been very supportive and I feel my comfortable sharing my opinions and knowledge about various subjects. This is a 360 from my undergraduate school where professors did not care about students especially ones who just learned on their own. I recommend the New School and Parsons School of Design if you want to expand your video game development skills.

Seton Hall University
Graduate School
South Orange, NJ
Rating 3.89 out of 5 44 reviews
Graduate Student: The classroom sizes are great and easy to communicate with professors. Everything the students need is right on Campus, including the athletic center, with all new gym equipment and exercise classes. The library is big enough where one area you can socialize the other is for quiet study. There is also a shuttle service that can take you around the area in the town from early morning, to late evening. There are restaurants, parks, and shops around campus to visit. The campus is also located at a close distance to NYC and the NJ transit.

Fashion Institute of Technology
Graduate School
New York, NY
Rating 4.67 out of 5 3 reviews
Master's Student: I am in the Fashion and Textile Studies M.A. program at FIT and have just completed my first semester. In my collections management course, I have learned so much about taking proper care of objects using archival materials. I have also learned all is there to know about Western textiles and 19th century fashion. As a previous undergraduate science major, I enjoyed my Fiber and Fabrics class, where we learned about fiber analysis and microscopy as well as fiber identification. Overall, this intensive first semester of my program has been difficult, but worthwhile considering my knowledge of the materials I have learned.

CUNY John Jay College of Criminal Justice

Rating 4.57 out of 5 37 reviews
Graduate Student: I'm in the online masters program for criminal justice. Overall my experience has been amazing. I've had the freedom to pick classes that cover a wide variety of subjects within the criminal justice umbrella. My professors have always been available to me by email or phone. I also do not feel like my education has suffered at all being an online student. I am held to the highest of academic standards. The coursework is rigorous but worth it in the end. You really do get to experience criminal justice from all views instead of just one!

Drew University
Graduate School
Madison, NJ
Rating 3.88 out of 5 16 reviews
Master's Student: Being a graduate student at Drew is different from undergraduate. But you are still in great company with the graduate students and professors. The campus is beautiful, and offers everything you need to conduct classes. You don't need hugely advanced technology to conduct classes. We learned about the evolution of healthcare in the United States with just a chalk board. You have great professors who lend their spare time to helping you. The atmosphere is not cut throat, and everyone has the chance to add to the conversation.

CUNY Brooklyn College
Graduate School
Brooklyn, NY
Rating 4.27 out of 5 33 reviews
Graduate Student: After my experience at Brooklyn College, I now truly consider it to be "the poor man's harvard." My experience as a Bachelor of Science degree candidate in biology was excellent. The professors were quite knowledgable and the courses were challenging enough to prepare me for medical school. Any negative reviews from people who have attended Brooklyn College must have been from students who did not take advantage of the endless resources and opportunities that are provided by the school. In addition, the cheap tuition (under $7,000 per year) allows students to receive a top-notch education at a bargain price! Most students graduate debt-free and loan free. The one thing I didn't like about Brooklyn College was that the non-science courses were easier than I would have hoped. I have received an A+ in almost all of the non-science courses that I completed.

In addition, there are many great resources offered to students from scholarships and perks like free writing tutors and counseling to help students thrive.
