Rutgers is on par with plenty of state schools.
Also to the OP, there is a reason plenty of people are asking about financial info. People on the board have gone through this process. They understand that what you can pay is one of the most important variables in the process.
If you tell people on this board I can pay $20K a year and here are my kid’s stats and here is what he/she wants to study and this is the location we are comfortable with the people here can give you 5-10 options in a matter of minutes.
I know a family that had a budget, but let their child apply to many OOS schools and the child got in, but did not have the stats to make the budget work. The child had quite a disappointing Spring in her Senior year. She got into many schools, but the money didn’t work.
