Robert Soto and Eric Van Schaack thanks for the info. about Rowan.

Robert Shaw it isn't true that they require students to live on campus the first 2 years.  I have friends who went there and most of them lived off campus sophomore through senior year.

Robert Shaw · Answer

1) Rutgers dorms are not expensive 2) Rutgers require students to live on campus first two years 3) Plenty of land to put up new housing 4) SFR and multis in town are really old stock

Most colleges can destroy off campus market just by requiring undergrads to live on campus.

Just for some information Rutgers University in New Brunswick has many properties near College Avenue the problem is Rutgers University owns most of them. The reason I say this is because when I was renting before I graduated (2014) my landlord gave me a 90 days notice because she sold her multi family property to the University. So, do some homework if your interested in Rutgers New Brunswick most property are owned by Rutgers themselves.( I guess they want to kick landlords out offer money to build offices etc). But don't quote me fully you probably find some mutli family just shop around just letting you know Rutgers University does own majority of the area near campus.
