College Prowler Take
Part of your college education is being around people from different walks of life, and there is no place is better for that than at Seton Hall, one of the most diverse campuses in the country. The social scene is very trendy and fast-paced. The school is full of rich kids with all the money in the world to burn, and they normally burn it on clothes and bars. Seton Hall’s education is good depending upon your major. Business, nursing, computer science, and diplomacy are what make Seton Hall a Tier II school. The people you meet at SU and the friendships that you form make this school a community. With its small size, that community feels more like a family by the time you graduate. Another good reason to attend Seton Hall is its proximity to New York City, which is an endless bank of great internships and potential jobs. The Career Center on campus works hard to obtain Seton Hall students positions in places like Wall Street. As the saying about NYC goes, if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere. If you do come to Seton Hall, you should get involved with a group or organization. In high school, it may not have been cool to be in the Stock Market Club, but here, the kids who are in it might become future millionaires. Find something you like or something that aligns with your studies and get involved. Finally, balance work and play. Part of the professional world is based on people skills. If you are cramped up in the library the whole time, chances are, you do not have the best social skills. On the other hand, if you do not know where the library is by junior year, then you need to seriously rethink the whole college thing.

It’s good because buses run pretty much around the clock. There’s a train station a short walk away, and a campus shuttle that takes you to a lot of different places. |
