<p>There's probably a thread already, sorry.
I got accepted into PSU Smeal (business) & business as well for Rutgers.
I live in NJ, so my parents want me to go to Rutgers cause it's cheaper.</p>
<p>Is PSU's business program a lot better or just a little bit better?
Is it easy to find internships if you go to PSU (cause my bro went there & said it was kinda difficult for some reason & my parents said since NJ is closer to the city, it's easier)?
Which is more worth it in the end?</p>
<p>I am not in the business school but I will give input. I do not think that PSU and RU are that much different in business rankings, at least not enough to matter. You might have more fun at PSU than Rutgers, but being a current student at Rutgers the social life is not bad… and from what I hear it gets much better every year. Your parents are right in trying to persuade you to go to Rutgers because it is cheaper. This economy is very poopy, and as much as I am an Obama guy, who knows when spending an extra buck, even on colleges will be safe again.</p>
<p>I think they are too close to make much of a difference. I would go with the less expensive route, you don’t want any extra debt getting out, plus there is something to be said for Rutgers proximity to NYC and you can have PLENTY of fun there its a great university!</p>
