Why New Jersey?

New Jersey, the Garden State, is NOT all urban. Rowan is
located in the southern part of the state, mostly rural with
bedroom communities for the greater Delaware Valley and the
Philadelphia area. Within five minutes of campus, one is in
beautiful farm country, apple and peach orchards, and
forested areas. Philadelphia, 17 miles to the northeast,
provides all of the advantages of a major city with many
historical and cultural sites and entertainment, business,
and transportation amenities. One can reach New York City,
Baltimore or Washington, DC in about two hours. Weekend trips
to the mountains of Pennsylvania and Maryland provide year
round recreational opportunities with excellent winter skiing
facilities. To the east, one finds the finest beaches on the
east coast, excellent boating and fishing in the Atlantic
Ocean and the Delaware Bay to the south, and Atlantic City,
only 40 miles from campus.

Rowan has the best of rural/suburban living with nearby
metropolitan area services. Excellent housing is available
and affordable. Taxes are lower than most areas in the
northeast.

Why Rowan?

Rowan University, a state institution, provides exciting
opportunities for all connected with this community of
scholars. The Rowan Vision includes our recent the transition
to university status in 1997, the admission of the first
class to the new College of Education doctorate in
Educational Leadership, and the growth in the size and
quality of our student body. The Rowan family gift of $100
million places the Rowan University endowment among the
highest in the nation and allows the university to implement
new programs, faculty development, and special events of
importance to the education of Rowan students. Our new
university library increased space dedicated to library
services three times with a state-of-the-art facility. The
new Rowan College of Engineering moved into the just built
Engineering Building, Rowan Hall, and will graduate its first
class in 2001. Rowan University is on the move to provide
educational leadership in the southern New Jersey region as
we enter the new century.

Rowan's College of Education, fully accredited by NCATE,
provides quality undergraduate and graduate programs in
elementary/early childhood teacher education, special
education, reading education, secondary education,
educational leadership, health/exercise science and other
areas.
