New Jersey is home to two of the nine colleges founded before the American Revolution: Princeton University (formerly the College of New Jersey) and Rutgers University (formerly Queen’s College). In the present day, both of these universities lead the nation in terms of academics and research. Just a short commute from New York City in Hoboken, students will find the first college dedicated to mechanical engineering in the United States – Stevens Institute of Technology. Beyond traditional colleges and universities, the state has a notable number of Talmudic institutions, such as the Rabbinical College of America.
