The College of New Jersey

One of the most overrated college. Students feel they attend an elite school because of the "impressive" average SAT scores and "low" acceptance rate. One's intelligence is often times measured by the other schools they've gotten into.

Because TCNJ (and Rutgers for pre professional programs) kicks the shit out of every other state school in NJ, many in-state students will chose TCNJ because of the economy and the school's in-state tuition. That is why 90 percent of the student body if from New Jersey.

Elite students DO NOT go to TCNJ because it is an elite school, but rather because they don't want to spend 40,000+ elsewhere.

If TCNJ was actually a good school, it would attract out of state students.

Doug: "How's your first semester at The College of New Jersey"

Dumb Bitch: "Awesome, there's kids in my women gender studies class that got into Villanova, Lafayette, and Lehigh. I GO TO SUCH A GOOD SCHOOL!"

Doug: "Hmm, or maybe because bright students from New Jersey that didn't receive much financial aid or scholarships from other schools nearly all end up at TCNJ because it's the best public college in New Jersey. Why are there so few out of state students then?"

Dumb Bitch: "TCNJ IS A PUBLIC IVY!"

Doug: "Oh, I'm sorry I didn't realize. Where have you read that?"

Dumb Bitch: "A book"

Doug: "right"
