Admissions

Stay on top of financial aid because there are a lot of students and you don't want to miss out on your money. Go to class it makes the work a lot easier to understand if you are actually there when the teacher teaches it rather than just trying to learn from the book.

Rutgers Camden is good if you love the Rutgers name, but want a smaller school compared to the huge New Brunswick campus.

Apply early.
Spend a day at the campus to see if you think it's a good fit.
Make appointments with counselors and prospective professors.
Make appointments with financial aid counselor to see what's available in the way of help to pay for school.

For prospective students, I would say to be willing to dive into anything and everything. For a small campus, there is a lot to do. Don't be afraid to go into a club meeting, or just be afraid to join in on any activity. There is something to spark every interest and there's always new people around who would be just as scared as you are. College is a fun experience, and Rutgers-Camden is the perfect example of that!

Prospective students should try to brush up their communication skills because living in such a small community would require constant communication both with your friends and your professors.
