It has a very prestigious engineering program. However, it is only usually recognized on the east coast for some reason. The curriculum is challenging and gives you a solid engineering background even if the teachers aren't that great. For a small school the social scene isn't bad. Freshmen year is usually marked by visiting the frats. A large majority of the student population is greek. After freshmen year hoboken and New York City can provide enough entertainment to keep you happy.

One could be involved in many things. You could go from one meeting to another without going on buses and walking far.

The Job oppurtunities. I've had two full time paid jobs with real engineering companies .

The fact that I have to work an outside weekend job to allow myself some food money is more than likely the best thing. I love having free time to myself which does not exist. The job I took on (bartending) was the best thing that could have happened to me. The people I meet there are possible connections in later life.
