Stevens Institute of Technology

• Graduate School
• HOBOKEN, NJ
• Rating 4.85 out of 5  13 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...Read 13 Reviews

• Graduate School
• NEWARK, NJ
• Rating 4.54 out of 5  28 reviews

Alum: I attended the Master's of Biomedical Sciences program here and I feel that the program was challenging, organized, and aligned me for success. I was earning my masters in hopes to become a more competitive applicant when I applied to dental school and I believe completing my masters at Rutgers helped me achieve this, tremendously. The faculty are knowledgable, approachable, and supportive. There are a variety of courses to choose from, as well as specific concentrations to focus on. The courses are taught well by interesting and amazing professors who have done impressive work in their field. Being able to be taught by these professors is inspiring and allowed me to absorb the information well.

Seton Hall University

• Graduate School
• SOUTH ORANGE, NJ
• Rating 4 out of 5  45 reviews

Master's Student: I love taking classes at Seton Hall University! The professors are energetic, engaging, and extremely empathetic. I love that they are approachable because it's important for me to feel comfortable asking questions. The small classes made it easy for me to get to know my classmates, reminding me that I always have a supportive network to reach out to. When COVID-19 happened, I took it upon myself to reflect and explore the different ways I could take better care of myself. In fact, I wanted to host my own "Prioritizing Self-Care During COVID" event. I'm so grateful that two professors with doctorate degrees agreed to help me. I felt honored to receive support outside of the classroom, especially with planning and coordinating the event. This school is a powerhouse of positive energy and supportive people. I LOVE it!...Read 45 Reviews

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...Read 16 Reviews

Montclair State University

• Graduate School
• MONTCLAIR, NJ
• Rating 4.33 out of 5  54 reviews

Master's Student: Within the Computational Linguistics graduate program, I have had only positive experiences. The professors are all very comfortable in their fields- many of them have worked in industry for years, or been independently publishing research in the academic world. They bring a level of intellectual prowess to the program that I was seeking when deciding upon an institution. In addition, the Natural Language Processing (NLP) Lab provided an opportunity to work on cutting-edge computational linguistic projects, and be exposed to inspiring research, all while drawing upon years of experience available through the professors guiding the Lab program. I am currently working at an internship in an artificial intelligence company, and I was able to directly use the knowledge I gained during my time in the NLP Lab and during classes at Montclair to acquire this job offer. I would absolutely recommend the Computational Linguistics graduate program at Montclair State University...Read 54 Reviews

Each class provides enough PPE equipment to ensure all can feel safe and be able to learn each and every class. The classrooms are smaller and provide more one-on-one experiences which benefits both students engaging with one another as well as speaking with the professors.

Master's Student: I am still currently a graduate student at STEU, but so far I love my experience! My program consists of online classes (which I am currently taking) and an in-person internship (which I haven't started yet). The class website is easy to figure out and get used to. I was very worried about starting online learning because in undergrad I never took an online class, but the professors here were understanding of that and made it very easy to transition. My education here so far is amazing and the learning techniques are very diverse...Read 4 Reviews

Fairleigh Dickinson University - Florham Campus

• Graduate School
• MADISON, NJ
• Rating 4 out of 5  9 reviews

Graduate Student: I love my program and my department, however dealing with administration outside in other departments has been extremely frustrating. First, they wait entirely too long to distribute financial aid. Were talking WEEKS after the drop deadline. And even though financial aid knows you're paying your tuition through aid, they will still put a hold on your account. It makes no sense!...Getting help from anyone is also frustrating. The methods to simply change your address is archaic in itself. But my program is wonderful and to me, the program is simply a diamond in the rough.Read 9 Reviews

Saint Peter's University

• Graduate School
• JERSEY CITY, NJ
• Rating 4.62 out of 5  13 reviews

Niche User: after one year of commuting to class, I joined SGA to represent the class of 2022 as their secretary. It's been an honor to serve and be a part of the team. I'm also reminded of the workload and standard that we are all held to because of our commitment as student leaders. My position as secretary keeps me busy on campus and despite the school being located right outside of NYC, I'm typically able to study without distractions...I was able to join the student work-study staff of the Theresa and Edward O'Toole Library, I got a chance to be a part of a new Saint Peters University commercial that was filmed on campus. I'm committed to helping make this school more engaging for all who attended and those who will possibly attend in the future. I've had the honor of sharing my experience on campus with the president of the University, and have advocated for more programs to help with diversity on campus I make new friends and met some brilliant people from across the world at this college...Read 13 Reviews

New Jersey City University

• Graduate School
• JERSEY CITY, NJ
• Rating 4.36 out of 5  36 reviews

Master's Student: Great experience, the campus is diverse and the staff and students are all very friendly. The campus is located nearby for students in the Hudson County area. New advances were made to the schools interiors, and new housing was built for the students. There are two locations, one in the heart of Jersey City and the other Downtown Jersey City. Not to mention there are great options for food nearby for those students who live on campus and those who commute. NJCU also offered many different programs, and opportunities to those who need them. They have a good sense of community and allow for all students to come together and enjoy college life. There are options for work study and even cooperative learning internships. The school also offers events for students to attend. But furthermore, the resources students need to complete work in the laboratory, and students are given the option to use as much printing as needed. Students here are partnered with professors who assist in job search!...Read 36 Reviews

Berkeley College - Woodland Park

• Graduate School
• WOODLAND PARK, NJ
• Rating 5 out of 5  1 review

Senior: My advice that I would give another student who is really interested in pursuing their education is to take full advantage of the opportunity given to them. Education is something that no one can take from you and it will only benefit you for the future. My second advice would be to use as many resources as you can for advancement for your future. Lastly I would definitely advise not to procrastinate and try to get everything done as early as possible. Organization and time management is very important when it comes to college. At the end of the day always be humble and always treat others how you want to be treated. Berkeley College is a great school indeed...Read 1 Review
