Rutgers is a huge campus, and sometimes it’s a little overwhelming coming in as a freshmen. The hidden gems of Rutgers are pretty massive as well. There are so many things we forget to tell incoming students at Rutgers orientation. Here are 10 things they probably won’t tell you, but I learned on my own.
You should already know how huge the campus is from the tours and orientation, but the reality of it really doesn’t hit you until you’re trying to find your way on your own.

You will be late and the bus will be packed with sweaty people.
Either park off campus or in your designated parking lot. There is no going under the radar.
