Newark CAS to New Brunswick SOE

Hey. I am a high school senior who was accepted into the Pre-Engineering program at the College of Arts & Sciences in Newark, NJ, but was rejected from both New Brunswick’s School of Engineering and Arts & Sciences. I am pretty unsure about choosing this option, as it might not be sound the first two years. I want to dive into the engineering school as soon as possible, and I really don’t want to be stuck in Newark, so I want to know how will the transfer process from NCAS to SOE works and if you all have any recommendations.

I am still deciding between this, NJIT, and the University of Delaware. Financially, Rutgers is my best bet followed by NJIT and UD.

You would have to go to Newark and then try to transfer after a year to New Brunswick. However, school to school transfers are hard to do especially for the professional/competitive schools.
