61 % graduate in 6 years 6....

Why in the world would anyone send their kid to this?

I'd ask about their finances. The school has had some major financial stress.



JMU has a 65% 4-year graduation rate. I’m guessing you’d snub your nose at that, too?

JMU's 6-year graduation rate is 82%, versus 61% for Drew University for the same time period (6 years). Big difference.

This is because Drew serves a larger population of economically disadvantaged students.

This is a fantastic write-up. Thank you!

Drew has cut faculty/staff benefits so I would be wary of their financials and concerned they’re not going to attract top teaching talent.

Agreed, I think TCNJ is a great school that definitely does not get DCUM love.


I remember when it was Trenton State…

It's not nationally ranked and is #111 among Liberal Arts colleges. Many of their programs are unaccredited.

Another one? I was just reading the former “new” one’s bio yesterday! They had a woman five years ago, then the man came three years ago and now another woman.

The man was the interim president.
