New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT)

There are four major buildings for accomodation on campus. Two are near the computer lab and the other two are near library and cafeteria. A person has to pay also for food in cafeteria whoever decides to stay on campus. The halls are located on campus so distance to classes are not more than 2 to 3 minutes. On campus security is quiet well. Boys and girls cannot stay together and that is the rule. Accomodation on campus is still costlier than room sharing in nearby apartments. The nearby area named Kearny is better to stay and easy transportation of bus is available to university at 1.10 USD one way. The University provides free shuttle service to kearny and other nearer area like newark after 4 pm to 11 pm.

All the classes are in English except any literature classes which I am not aware of. The University is a public research university and many international students (Mostly Asian - India,China - and African) are studying in the university. Thus, your ability to understand and to speak convincing english will be tested like anything. Sometimes you do not understand what exactly a student coming from another culture is speaking about or sometimes you need patience to explain in english to the other students. But it is not cumbersome and it is fun. The test of English is far greater than of TOEFL :)

Travelling is not a problem in New Jersey and New York City. To reach New York City, one has to take Path Train that are available from Penn Station. The university also provides shuttle service to Penn Station. From Penn Station one can easily go to other states and go to Newark Intl. Airport (20 minutes by bus 4 dollars one way). From the Penn station, one can also go to south jersey (princeton university area) by bus. Only thing is you ought to have the time.
