What are the differences between the campuses?

I know Rutgers offers three campuses (New Brunswick, Newark, and Camden) but is their a difference between the three and if their is what is it? Thanks in advance for you answers.

Rutgers NB is the main campus.Newark and Camden are called satellite campuses.Usually those who cant get into NB,they go to Newark or Camden and after 2 years they transfer to NB.Or one can stay there for whole four years.NB offers a lot more majors/minors than Newark/Camden.And NB has more than 40000 students where Newark/Camden has 10000 students more or less.You should consider both NB and Newark campuses, not Camden.

New Brunswick is basically the center of all 3 campuses. It's the largest campus, and it also has the highest academics of the 3.

New Brunswick is really the best out of the three, it has better Academics, a larger number of students, more diverse students, and is in a better neighborhood. Camden is soon going to be removed (it's teaming up with other NJ colleges in the area).

I believe Rutgers in New Brunswick is much bigger and has more to offer in majors as well as environment

New Brunswick feels like the main campus. There is not much interaction between the three schools. Campuses are a different thing. Within the New Brunswick school, there are four campuses: Livingston, College Avenue, Cook/Douglass, and Busch.

From what I have heard, New Brunswick campus is the main, biggest and safest one out of the three. Newark is more integrated in the city and mostly the business school. Camden has the same great programs but it isn't a very safe area.

new brunswick campus is the main one and newark and camden are for those who cannot afford new brunswick or want to live closer to home. also new brunswick has more greek life and activities such as sports
