[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friends daughter looked into it - and did not like the remote area and the gender imbalance.

She ended up at another gender imbalance school (Steven’s) but was ok with that since it is in an urban environment and had friends going to NYU that she will be rooming with next year.

She said if Rose had a better gender balance or was in an urban area she would have chosen it in a heartbeat - and lived the school,  atmosphere and collaboration. [/quote]

How does she like Stevens?[/quote]

She thinks she is getting amazing education - classes are hard and does not have much free time during the week, but she enjoys them.

She does not feel like she fits in - has not found her tribe there. She is very outgoing and smart, but not a “nerd”. She hangs out with her friends from NYU and Fordham on the weekend and only really hangs out with a few from Steven’s.

Her mom thinks that if she did not have her out of school friends to fall back on it would force her to try harder to make more friends.

My DC visited and liked the compact campus and urban setting. He really liked the programs offered, but he is not sure if he thinks he would fit in. He is extremely social as well.

The housing there is scarce and $$$, so that is a huge consideration. Parking and traffic in Hoboken is the worst- so looking for something a bit further from campus is not that realistic.[/quote]
