Undergrad makes up majority of population in NJIT. Majority grad students are Indian. There are n no. of clubs. I am in a group called Sanskar. All the grad students club report to a committee, which handles every club. Similarly for other types of courses as well. In college lobby, there are many stalls everyday. Different clubs are there. There is a pub in our college. Delivery of alcohol is limited. Many events are going on, where we get free food.

Generally, people prefer off campus accomodation.

I'm living off campus it's better to stay outside price will be fine if shared staying. On-campus housing is high.

You can complete your Master's in 3 semesters and it's nearby New York great place to stay and explore. Lots of start-up companies are there around campus.

I am a commuter and live at home since I do live nearby. It's only a 5-minute bus ride and a 15-minute train ride away. I do buy a monthly pass for the public transportation I use and there are student discounts offered to students. Students can get up to 25% off the monthly passes. I do know quite a bit about being a resident on campus even though I am a commuter. We have two freshman resident halls and during their freshman and sophomore year, they are required to get an unlimited meal plan. Commuters can also get a meal plan that can be flexible if they'd like although there are plenty of restaurants nearby that offer a student discount since there are 3 other universities besides NJIT in that area. We have two other resident halls on campus for the upperclassmen along with honors resident halls on campus. Nearby off-campus is available right across the from NJIT that is not affiliated with NJIT on anyway.

I picked NJIT because of its small class sizes compared to the other 7 schools I applied to. Since I had a fee waiver for the application I did not have to pay the $75 application fee. After applying I heard back from them within 2 weeks about my decision. They do look for higher math scores and want you to take at least up to pre-calc in high school since math is deemed to be difficult here. NJIT has a tutoring center for all subjects so it is really easy to find help when one seeks help.

Off-campus is best for my needs as it's a lot cheaper. I know to cook, so I usually cook at home. On campus dorms don't have kitchens, forcing to opt for a meal plan which is way too costly. Luckily, my off-campus house is walking distance away from the college. So it feels like I'm on campus only.

The course structure for Data Science was the best amongst other universities. As my area of interest is in Big data and Machine Learning, Professor Roshan Usman and Professor Chase Wu are the best in the industry with their ongoing research projects in the data science field.

there are lots of thing going on campus as NJIT has Indian community, sports club also computer science clubs. As Indian student we celebrate the festivals like ganapati, holi on campus. also Njit recently organize an hackathon. we have free high speed wifi on campus. NJIT has a huge and beautiful library with hundreds of books. also NJIT has printers for students which are there in library itself. NJIT has a huge gym and playgrounds for soccer and also indoor games like pool and all stuff.

living on campus is pretty expensive. there is a city called Harrison near to the Njit. Harrison is cheap for living and all other stuff. Rent here is around 500$ a month.
