Drew is a beautiful campus located in Madison, New Jersey, about 30 miles from New York City. Enrollment is approximately 2,700. Class sizes of 20 or fewer. Entering students receive a personal IBM laptop.
Everyone seemed friendly though Goucher seemed much more so. Our guide showed us a dorm room that the residents volunteer to be shown. A student was working on his laptop at the time. There are a few residential “houses” students can apply to live in that focus on a common interest, the Earth House, for example, for the enviro conscious. This is not a “Greek” school but there are many student organizations.
The campus is small, not much parking space, students are not permitted to have cars until Jr year. Our guide said many students don’t really feel the need for one because Drew has a very active campus life, a train station to NYC is only a mile away, and shuttle buses to local spots are available.
