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. The campus map will be your life saver, especially when it’s 8 a.m. and you can’t find the bio lab because that’s not even what its called!
If you want Rutgers merchandise and you don’t want to drop mad money for it, trust me, there’s probably a tent or table somewhere on one of the four campuses that’s giving something out.
Let’s be honest, unless you’re studying outside, at BRR, or Mabel, studying is literally the worst. Studying is more fun with a view, as compared to studying in the basement of Alex.
This is slightly a lie, but you can print straight from your laptop; all you have to do is install the software and swipe at a printing station.
You can conveniently pay with RU-express, or even your debit card for a meal.
If you’re more about that warm lunch from home, we have microwaves on every campus for your convenience.
If you need to get to the other side of campus, and the bus says it’ll be there in 10 minutes, the chances of you getting to your class before the bus does is pretty high.
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.
