Campus Financial Resources
Post-pandemic many in our community are finding it challenging to cover some of the "basics". Over the past few years, the federal, state and local governments moved quickly and continue to work hard to resolve financial constraints for New Jersey residents. Rutgers-Newark leaders and offices have worked very closely with Rutgers-wide officials to coordinate on-going programs and support. Please make use of the resources on campus that are available and operating during regular hours of operation.
