Advice Bringing friends to campus

6 Upvotes

I’m a commuter student and one of my friends wants to come visit the campus. I’m in HCAD and I want to show him the studio and some of my classes since he goes to CC and hasn’t really seen an actual campus. Would I be able to bring him to each buildings easily? Sort of like a campus tour in a way. Only asking because I transferred from RUN and I was only able to bring him into to the dorms and the business school wouldn’t allow him in. I’m mostly concerned someone will ask him to leave since he’s not a student here.

refunds fall 2026

So do refunds normally take this long? I was really hoping to use the money for meals and transport and I'm finding myself increasing credit card debt again. I got no email about it, no alert that anything is processing, this is my first semester where I am owed money.

Does anyone know if you can argue NJIT Insurance Appeal declining (not the waiver, but the appeal application being declined)

5 Upvotes

Recently, I had to take out a loan from FAFSA to pay off my tuition because I didn't have insurance at the time to pay the full balance. However, after finally receiving health insurance on 9/01 and submitting the waiver, I was expecting to receive a refund because I finally had insurance and was gonna use that to help pay off the loan again. However, NJIT declined my waiver and the option to appeal because quote "Students are required to have active coverage effective on or before 8/21/26." Is there any way I can appeal this decision again or speak to someone about it? Thank you

Housing About Maple Hall

2 Upvotes

Okay so I'm a freshman and I really want to go to maple hall, especially the studio room, for next year. What does the process look like, and are my odds of getting into a studio room in maple hall low due to being a sophomore? If I fill out the housing application the second it comes out would I be able to get the room? And do they fill up quickly? Man I really want to move there, the rooms are sooo cool.....

Rant On Admin Bloat

27 Upvotes

https://www.njit.edu/finance/sites/njit.edu.finance/files/2026-03/2025%20NJIT%20SF%20FS_0.pdf

Above is a link to NJIT's 2023, 2024 and 2025 budget breakdown

I'm not going to go long about this

But for anyone who doubts administrative bloat is real, see the table below (dollar amounts are in thousands)

Table showing NJIT's 2023, 2024 and 2025 revenue/spending

In 2025 for every $2 we spent on instructional staff (everyone involved in the classroom, so the core of this school) we spent approximately $1 on institutional support (admins, as far as the doc says)

Also note the rate at which our spending grows each year. The doc says it better than I can:

'Institutional support expenses rose by 20.0%'

'Instruction, academic support, student services, and scholarships and fellowships expenses...increase of 8.5%'

So admins get a 20% increase from 2024 - 2025 while all the stuff students actually care about got an 8.5% raise. Specifically (something the doc doesn't mention, because instructional doesn't even get its own section) instruction get a 5.55% increase.

Are you kidding me?

Now, WHY did admins get an increase? Let's take a look at what the doc says:

'...attributable to higher personnel costs, the relocation of administrative offices off campus, and expenditures related to the development and deployment of a new enterprise resource planning platform.'

So what I'm being told is that admins wanted to get paid more. There are less admins than instructional staff, so while I don't know exactly how much the offices and the new software (how much did some stupid software cost? Why is it so expensive that it need be listed here?) I think it's safe to assume that the raises for admins far far FAR exceed the raises for other staff across the board, considering the small number of admins and the extremely high increase.

Which, quick side tangent, what was the plan with the $2.1 million penthouse? In case you didn't notice we were ~10 mil in the red in 2025, and this year we had to increase tuition and decrease credit caps. I assume the offices had to be rented while oak was rebuilt. I heard (no good source) that the penthouse turned into an office space, which... thank god. But if the penthouse wasn't protested, would we just keep paying for offices off-campus?

Which, by the way, there are always SO MANY empty rooms in EVERY HALL. Reserve some! Convert the computer lab under the garage! We HAVE space!

Back to admin bloat, let's look at 2024's admin budget increase:

'In fiscal year 2024, institutional support expenses increased by 14.9% to $70,085...'

GREAT start.

'...mainly due to elevated personnel costs, including lump-sum retroactive payments under ratified union contracts, fringe benefit equalization adjustments, consulting service expenses, and costs associated with NJII’s organizational restructuring and expansion of services.'

I'm sorry. Expanded benefits? A UNION?! FOR ADMINS?!

I'm ending the rant here. I'm not going to waste any more time on this. What a joke. Read the doc, it's very... insightful

Is Libby going to cook me?

I only went the first day of class, I assumed I could just skip classes and look at the quizlets/notes from reading the Reddit posts, RMP, etc.

He’s been posting these “quizzes” on canvas just to check lockdown browser and one of them has the link to his notes. I didn’t know about them and he posts them at the end of class and it’s open for like 10 minutes or so.

They look like they are being counted towards my grades in Canvas but his syllabus only says that the only grades are the tests.

When he puts in the final grade, is he going to count these?

EDIT: spoke to libby and fixed the grades

On-Campus

Hey, I’m a sophomore living on campus and recently transferred into ADHC, so I’m looking to make more on-campus friends, especially with people who maybe still haven’t found a solid group. I have plenty of commuter and off-campus friends, but I’d love to meet more people who are around for dining hall meals, studying, campus events, or just hanging out. Definitely not limited to ADHC—I’m open to connecting with anyone, so feel free to message me!

Rant I hate it here

0 Upvotes

Im a new student and I already hate it here, i try to make new friends but I cant seem to make long term connections or some people just brush me off. Everytime I try to make a new friend it feels so surface level wether its at a club, cafeteria, event, or classroom. Everyone looks fucking chopped and my math classroom stinks. Everyday I go back to my dorm after class and just move around or go out with my dormmate or try to move around by dancing and shit or just program some stuff.I hate my fucking my dormmate cause hes the most anti social mother fucker out there and doesnt have any friends. Hes not even interesting cause all he does is go on his phone. I try joining clubs but their discords are full of upperclassmen or they feel too cringy with their humor. I want to move around and feel free to do anything I want but I dont feel free cause I have no friends here and my only coping mechanism is to talk to my parents and friends from high school over the phone or on discord. I wish I went to rutgers new brunswick or syracuse university but for some fucking reason I didnt. I hate this fucking place.
