Question

How far away is Rutger's University from the New Brunswick stop on the Northeast Corridor Line of NJ Transit's subway system? And how long does the ride take from New York Penn Station to New Brunswick?
Thank you.

Answer 1

long answer above.

the train is 1 block from the main campus (closer to campus than the main book store is).

It also depends WHERE on rutgers campus you are going. With route 18 traffic, it could take you 30 minutes to an hour to get to the far end of campus from the train station.
