Choose your favorite Rutgers campus.
You can never have too many choices. At Rutgers, choice starts with three campuses serving New Jersey’s southern, northern, and central regions. Each regional campus has a distinct scale and style, and each delivers a great college experience in a safe and convenient setting. No matter which campus you choose, you’ll find a network of smaller communities—research teams, learning environments, student organizations, and more—in which to build your future.
Rutgers–Camden attracts students seeking the intimacy of a small college. Our 40-acre south Jersey campus—distinctive for its close-clustered halls on beautifully landscaped grounds—is adjacent to the Camden Waterfront, a destination for 3 million visitors each year.
Rutgers–Newark is a proud partner in Newark’s acclaimed renaissance. Located on four square blocks in the downtown arts-and-education district, our north Jersey campus delivers the best of a city college: energy, adventure, and access to exciting cultural and professional opportunities.
Rutgers–New Brunswick is the historic heart of the university. Set along the Raritan River, our central Jersey campus combines the tradition of a classic Northeastern college (think ivy-covered quads) with the innovation of a major research university (think glass-and-steel labs).
All of Rutgers’ home cities—Camden, Newark, and New Brunswick—are exciting urban centers and vibrant college towns. It’s natural (and smart!) to think about your safety when you go away to college. Rutgers takes your safety very seriously, with its own 24/7 police force and campus-wide emergency notification systems.
