Salary and Debt by Major at New Jersey City University
We calculated a Salary Score for each of New Jersey City University's programs by comparing program-specific median alumni earnings to median alumni earnings for the same program across all schools that provide this data. This way, students can compare the relative salary strength of a specific major at New Jersey City University to the same major at other schools. A school's overall score by level is based on the school's by-program performance weighted by student enrollment in each program. Data is sourced from the December 2020 release of the U.S. Department of Education's College Scorecard and reflects median alumni debt upon graduation and median alumni earnings in the year after graduation for students who received federal financial aid. Debt and salary numbers are shown rounded to the nearest $10.

This University was very educational . and there were a lot of good professor in this University. I'm doing MM-performance classical - vocal music. last year , we had Opera workshop which was 'Die fledermaus'. also, we had lots of musical workshop. Student was able to get various of opportunities.
I went to NJCU from 2008-2011 and I must say it was very interesting. Getting to all your classes was easy because the campus isn't that big and that made it easy getting to your classes without being late. The teachers are awesome and are always willing to help you when they are free. My advisor was always helpful and was always making sure that I was on top of things especially towards my senior year when it was time to graduate.
