Anyone here attending for sure? Didn't start as my top choice, but the money is somewhat hard to turn down. Everyone I've talked to from the programs has been so freaking nice too.

I was somewhat concerned by the drop in rankings. Not sure if anyone knows why?? I also heard there was a lawsuit against Rutgers Law, and was wondering if that could drop rankings further in the future?? I haven't applied yet as a result.

DiamondG104

14:38

It is because in 2023 the Camden & Newark numbers were combined. The Newark Bar passing rate is 80% and Camden is 50%

[] ConcernedTearfulHornet

12:37

it has very similar employment outcomes in NJ to Seton Hall which (while ranked higher) is often 2-3x the price.

[] ConcernedTearfulHornet

12:38

newark was historically ranked higher (70s) and camden was (100s) when campuses merged, there was some impact from that, but also they were very cautious with covid which had an impact.

[] ConcernedTearfulHornet

12:39

but in terms of school in that ranking area, rutgers punches above its weight

ShoobyTooby
