Fordham vs Rutgers NB for Finance!

Transfer Students
1

<p>Hi everyone, I'm in a pickle. </p>

<p>I received the Jack Kent Cooke Undergrad Transfer Scholarship which awards students 30k for year for up to 3 years. I was accepted to both Fordham and Rutgers NB Business School. If I go to Rutgers, I won't have to pay anything (dorming included). If I got to Fordham, I'll need to take out about 8k in loans per year (16k for the next two years- dorming included as well). They're both great schools. The numbers lean towards Fordham (ranked 40th opposed to RU being 81, 91% job offers opposed to RU's 61%). However, I know that it's up to the student to excel and make his/her education count. Another thing that I was thinking about is how Fordham is 20 minutes away from Manhattan whereas RU is 45 (this would help with internships during the year). Nevertheless, is 16k worth it? I'm in an impasse. Help me!</p>

<p>Rutgers NB is ranked 68. Are you planning on going into the business school? Because it is highly regarded in the NYC metropolitan area.</p>

<p>Apart from that I can’t really help you. The finances are up to you to decide if it is worth it, and how comfortably you’ll be able to pay.</p>

<p>Hello! Yes, I got into the undergrad business school… I just don’t know if the large school will give me the same opportunity to secure internships.</p>
