For the 2012 to 2013 school year, Rider University tuition was $32,820, Fairleigh Dickinson tuition was $32,852, Seton Hall tuition was $33,740, while Monmouth University was $30,390.

When you think back to high school, do you shudder at the thought of braces and being shoved into lockers? Or do you think of varsity jackets and ruling the hallways?
