When it comes to choosing a college, student athletes have a lot of options - but not all of them are good. College Factual was founded, in part, to help students make the decision as to what would be the best school for them. Our Best Colleges for Men's Lacrosse in New Jersey ranking is part of that endeavor.

Our analysis looked at 10 schools in New Jersey to determine which ones were the best for Men's Lacrosse athletes in New Jersey. Our ranking is based on several objective factors, including the school's overall quality and the athletic competitiveness of the school. We steer clear of subjective measures since they don't give a clear picture when determining how one school compares to another. So, even if a school has a great team, it won't place well if it is also considered a low quality college or university.

You can create your own custom comparison that focuses on the factors most important to you using our tool, College Combat.
