Drew University Rankings by Salary Score™

Drew University is a beautiful, small, liberal arts college in northern New Jersey. The campus is majestic, filled with stunning oak trees and historic buildings. The school offers a variety of degrees; the degree I pursued was in Behavioral Science which is a mixture of anthropology, sociology, and psychology.

In addition to strong academics,... Read More the social experience and tight knit community at Drew allowed for the creation of meaningful, life-long friendships. These relationships are easily established through clubs, sports, and dorm life. I met so many interesting people from diverse backgrounds opening my eyes to different cultural and social realities. In addition to its diversity, one of Drews strong points for me was the opportunity to participate in international seminars and clubs. Through a Drew volunteer program I traveled to Honduras and through an organized seminar I went to Eritrea, both opportunities allowed me great personal growth and academic stimulation. For those who enjoy an urban adventure, a nice perk is the easy access to New York City which is just a short train ride away. My only negative comment about the school is the cost. As with so many universities, the cost is simply unaffordable for most. Most students rely on financial aid or scholarships in order to finance their studies. My experiences in dealing with the financial aid office as well as the admissions office were always positive. The administrative staff at the university is of as high caliber as the professors.

Drew University is an amazing institution, because their professors take the time to get to know ALL their students and help prepare them for a successful career. It is not uncommon for students at Drew to have a double major and a double minor, because Drew allows students the opportunity to study all the fields that interest them. For example, I majored in History and French, had minors in Holocaust Studies and Dance, and had a concentration in BA/MAT to apply towards grad school. My professors were extremely...
