What's up Profs! Looking at our mod tree, nobody is actually active on this subreddit. I remove what the bot misses as I see it, but... we need bodies! If you are a current or former Rowan student and want to help out, drop a comment here and send the phrase parking is limited but learning is not to the modmail!

Can anyone in Rowan Choice tell me about their experience? Were you able to become a full-time Rowan University student by sophomore year? Were you able to apply to other universities besides Rowan? I’m interested in Rutgers and TCNJ and would like to apply to them along with Rowan.

Prospective pre-med student considering Rowan University: Looking for honest opinions

3 Upvotes

I’m a rising high school junior from New Jersey, and Rowan has become one of my top college choices, especially because of the accelerated pre-med pathway.
Medicine has become a huge passion of mine over the last year. Outside of school, I spend a lot of my free time teaching myself biology, chemistry, calculus, and biophysics because I genuinely enjoy learning. Recently I’ve been exploring topics like tumor growth modeling with calculus, cancer biology, signaling pathways, and how math and biochemistry intersect in medicine. I work with the radiation oncology department, and shadow a medical physicist/oncologist. I’m nowhere near an expert. I just love digging into the “why” behind things.
I’m currently leaning toward majoring in Biochemistry because I enjoy understanding biology at the molecular level, but I’m still open to Biology if it’s a better fit.

For current students or alumni:
How strong is Rowan’s pre-med advising?
Are professors approachable if you’re the type of student who likes to ask a lot of questions or get involved in research?
How early can undergraduates realistically start doing research?
What kinds of opportunities are there for shadowing, volunteering, or clinical experience?
Is the environment collaborative, or does it feel cutthroat?
For anyone in the accelerated program (or who knows someone who is), what has your experience been like?
If you could go back, would you still choose Rowan for pre-med?

I’m looking for a university where curiosity is encouraged and where I can continue growing both academically and as a future physician.
I’d really appreciate any advice, experiences, or things you wish you knew before attending.

Thanks!

Art Supplies on Campus

Hey everyone! This is a bit random, but does anyone know where on campus I could borrow a few markers/highlighters and a couple of cardstock or thick paper? I’m working on a personal project and don’t have any craft supplies. I’d really appreciate it!

Does College of Art give some item to students for rent?

Junior living in holly, friends want me to move in with them, but random assigned student will not switch

3 Upvotes

OK, so I’m a junior that got assigned only Holly pointe housing with a random freshman, I have 3 junior friends that live in Robo that want to dorm with me but there is a random sophomore assigned into their dorm. Tried to get in contact with her multiple times to switch but nothing. I’ve tried to contact housing about this and they’re saying that there’s nothing they can do. Does anyone have any suggestions or ways we can escalate this so that I can move in with them.

By the time that they'll allow me to transfer in fall 2027, I'll be over the 59 credit limit. Is there any avenue that will allow me to transfer to the program despite being over the credit limit?

switching housing assignments without notification?

0 Upvotes

hey i'm not sure if this has happened to anyone else but RLUH switched my housing assignment without notifying me in any way. has this happened to anyone else? i was told it was an "administrative move" but what does that even mean? any help would be great

Anyway I could “harass” Rowan into telling me my housing early?

0 Upvotes

Initially was going to room off campus, decided not to so I could study abroad so I missed the normal deadline. I called about getting my assignment yesterday and was told I would get it by 2 weeks before classes aka about 1 week before move in. This obviously is annoying. Has anyone had any luck with getting their housing before that.

Looking for Roommate

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! My boyfriend and I (we are both 23) are looking for a responsible, amicable roommate to join us in leasing a beautiful 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment at Hamilton Crossings.
We’re ideally looking for a young professional, grad student, or recent college grad between the ages of 23 and 35 who values communication and transparency as much as we do.
The Financials:
Total Monthly Cost: ~$3,000/month (Base rent is $2,700, but it comes out to around $3k with all amenities and extras included).

Your Share: $1,500/month (Exactly half).

Lease: You will be officially added to the lease with us.

The Space & Location:
You’ll get your own bedroom and your own bathroom.

Location perk: It’s located right across from the train station—super convenient for commuters!

About Us:
Me & My Boyfriend: We are both 23. He works a traditional 9-to-5 job and frequently works overtime. I am a student finishing up my final year of college.

Our Vibe: We are very quiet, don't party much, and love a relaxed environment. We’re clean and organized, but definitely not strict "clean freaks."

What we’re looking for in a roommate: Someone who is responsible, friendly, and believes in open communication. If you think we’d be a good fit, shoot me a DM with a little bit about yourself, what you do, and your timeline! 😊

ENGL 101 Professor Qs

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I will be starting school this fall at the RCSJ campus. I am an adult going to school for the first time.

I have absolutely no experience with any kind of schooling for the pasr 15 years or so. I came across a site that reviews professors/classes (after choosing my schedule for the first semester, of course) and noticed that Mr. Mills has absolutely horrible reviews, going back at least 10 years.

They've been hating on this class since around the time I graduated high school, which for a lot of you guys was probably before you hit middle school.

I tried treating it like an Amazon review, ignore the 5 stars because theyre shilling, ignore the 1 stars because they're salty - that doesnt leave me with much to go on here. The guy has like a 15% "would take again" rating.

Does anyone here have experience with this instructor? I dont want to switch out if i dont need to, and I dont mind a hard teacher, if its worth it.

English is just a required course, not something I need to dive into for my career. I have a job, and a family, and everything that goes with that. Is it worth keeping my schedule as is, or can anyone give me any insight? Thank you!

Student Assistant coaching (FB)

Hello I am a incoming freshman and have been wanting to get into coaching for a while now, saw the instagram post about student coaching and I’m interested in doing it but was curious if anyone on here has/is doing it and could tell me what it would include and how many hours a week it would be/times. Reached out to the coach but I believe it was more or less a copy and pasted response. If anyone has info would be much appreciated!
