Getting to New Brunswick (Newark, Jersey City: transfer, buy, costs)

[undertoes]

I'm trying to get to New Brunswick with the PATH train. I'm coming from nyc. anyone here how i can accomplish this daunting task.

Also, from what i understand a ride on the PATH is 1.50. If i transfer trains, do i have to pay again?

The PATH doesn't run to New Brunswick- it runs to Jersey City, Hoboken and Newark. You need to take the PATH to Newark for $1.50, then buy a ticket for NJ Transit on the Northeast Corridor line, which will take you right to downtown New Brunswick. That ticket is probably around $5-6, as a ticket to Metropark costs me $4.50, and that's 3 or 4 stops before New Brunswick.

oh damn, thats pretty expensive.

I was planning to head to NJ b/c there's a blood center paying donors for their plasma. You'll get like 30 bucks, but if im gonna spend 15 bucks getting there, probably not worth it.
