Answer 1 :
Which campus are you looking at? There are 3: the main (and largest) campus is located in New Brunswick/Piscataway, the northernmost campus is located in Newark, and the southernmost campus (and the one closest to Philadelphia) is located in Camden. If you're interested in the Camden campus, they have tours scheduled for July 31st, Aug 8th, and Aug 14th. But you need to make an appointment for the tour in advance. Get more info here: http://admissions.rutgers.edu/110101A.asp?c=c If you're interested in the Newark campus, they have tours scheduled for Aug 4th, 8th, 18th, and 22nd. Again, appointments are necessary (unless you go on a walking tour). Get more info here: http://admissions.rutgers.edu/110101A.asp?c=n If you're interested in the main New Brunswick campus, they too have walking tours that do not require appointments, but I would not suggest those as they do not provide an undergraduate information session or bus tour. However, you can check out some info on that here: http://admissions.rutgers.edu/11010501WT.asp. It would probably be better if you attended what they call a "Scarlet Day," which includes an information session hosted by an admissions counselor followed by a bus tour with a student guide tour. They have tours scheduled for July 30th and 31st as well as Aug 1-3, 6-10, 13-17, and the 20th. Check it out here: http://admissions.rutgers.edu/tours/110101A-nb.aspx. In case you were wondering, it's a bigger deal to go on a tour of the New Brunswick campus as opposed to the Camden and Newark campuses because the New Brunswick campus is much bigger in size, has more schools, and can require a bus ride between classes (depending on where your different classes are). But regardless of which campus you're interested in, you should deff sign up for a tour so you can get a good idea of what college life will be like for you. Good luck!!
Answer 2 :
i am going into my sophmore year at rutgers. i highly recommend you take a visit. I would start taking tours the year before you apply and then maybe go there again if you get accepted. I know they were showing people my form last year about halfway through second semester

Answer 1 :
There are 7 year medical program at participating state nj colleges. If you did a typical medical program, 4 years of undergraduate, 4 year of medical school and then 5 years to intern and specialize in ob-gyn
Answer 2 :
In my opinion, there are only two great undergraduate colleges in NJ -- Princeton and Rutgers. The College of NJ is a decent regional school -- as are Stevens Institute and NJIT. I am not of the opinion tha tany of the other schools in NJ are worth going to. None of these colleges have a medical school. There are two medical schools in NJ -- University of Medicine and Dentistry of NJ and the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. US News does not rank eithe rschool -- which means you would be better off going to Medical School in a different state. Typically, to become a doctor in any field you need four years to get a BS, four more years of medical school to get an MD and then at least three years as an intern and resident to become be a specialist. Some specialties take longer.
Answer 3 :
4 years of undergrad 4 years of med school 3-5 years of residency OBGYN is a great job. The hours varies depending on your location and expertise. Just be aware that in the beginning your hours will be very high, around 80 hours. http://www.pre-med.info

I want apply to a college in New Jersey but I live in New York

I want apply to a college in New Jersey but I live in New York?
I am applying for financial aid, PELL, and TAP as well because I'm not really financially stable and I qualify for it, however if I do in fact get accepted into that college and plan to attend it, do I a) have to pay higher tuition because it's an "out of state" college b) receive less financial aid c) still receive assistance from PELL and TAP?

Answer 1 :
a. yes you will pay about 5 times or more in tuition and fees if you attend an out of state college. b. you will recieve less aid then if you stay in-state because you will not be able to use your TAP grant at an out-of-state school c. you will still be able to get Pell (if you qualify) but remember, you don't get more federal aid because you choose the expensive... i..want..t..spend..5 ..times.. more.. than.. i.. have to ... out-of-state school. Your pell grant will remain the same if you choose a school that costs 2,000 a year or 30,000 a year.

Answer 1 :
Many school districts want teachers with a masters degree or higher. You should plan on five years or more. Can it be done in less? Yes, but you may put yourself in a box where you are delegated to teaching in less desirable areas.
