What Students Are Saying

The professors here at NJIT know what they are talking about. There are the few exceptions, but the amazing professors outweigh the few. Make sure you keep up, because some will not stop to help you up during the lectures.
Ayrton from Newark, NJ
Again, the classes are tough. If I were to turn back, I would enhance my time management skills.
Vincess Jasmine from North Plainfield, NJ
Professors are amazing
Drew from Ocean, NJ
NJIT's academic rigor speaks for itself. NJIT is one of a handful of schools that Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) accepts academic credit from.
Semaj from Irvington, NJ
Its tough. You have to put your all in your school work even when you do not have class. Luckily NJIT provides excellent tutoring programs to help out.
William from Irvington, NJ
If you have the opportunity to take Honors/AP classes in your highschool (particularly in math and science) DO IT!! It's easy to fall behind and many times harder to catch up. The have the Center for Academic and Professional Enrichment (CAPE) which hosts walk-in & appointed tutoring to help you in your courses. Also, make use of your prof's study hours.
DJP from Englewood, NJ
It's not just hard because of the school, it's an engineering school and engineering itself is not easy, period.
Adel from Newark, NJ
Is pushing yourself beyond what you think is easy and achieve all your goals.
Juanita from Englewood, NJ
There are a lot of intelligent students attending this college. The academic competition is high.
