LOL - based on what criteria? I see you have them ranked by position in the alphabet, which is a a good start.

@eb23282 Rank them based on quality overall in terms of education, student life, etc. For instance, I see people breaking a list of schools into tiers. So, in this case, in tier 1 would definitely be Princeton. Tier 2 would have Rutgers NB, Stevens, etc. I meant ranking by quality.

Still not helpful.

Quality of student life = ???

What factors are important to YOUR quality of life? Access to beach? # of Activities/Clubs? Retention Rate? etc.

Quality of Education = ???
What major - Education? Biology? Engineering? If I want to be an Account, Princeton would be at the bottom of the list because they don’t offer that major.

I LOLed at this post.

Kinda silly, depends on major. Marine Bio PT OT I would choose Stockton.

TCNJ has a lower acceptance rate than Rutgers (I have graduates from both). My TCNJ graduate had a higher starting salary, but both were pretty good (business majors).
