too many non new jerseyians applying smh

#

(joke)

median phoenix
#

Yeah that’s why I’m nervous 😭

floral grove
#

In state kids will still be prioritized

#

Does nj have a rule where public schools have to have a certain percentage of kids in state

#

Cause I know NC has a rule like that

median phoenix
#

No clue but I hope they have that rule 😅

floral grove
#

The only way rutgers drastically changes the instate vs oos make-up of the school is if they are desperate for money

median phoenix
#

True

#

I mean they are gonna get rich they lit received so many applicants

#

It’s crazy

#

The acceptance rate is gonna drop by a lot which is why I’m scared

tame relic
#

yeah

#

it has to be lile i think

#

60-70%

#

instate kids

#

because their main mission is to give education to NJ residents

floral grove
#

But instate will almost be constant

#

With a slight decrease

tame relic
#

yeah

median phoenix
#

Isn’t the acceptance rate like 66? I was thinking that it would drop to like 50 this year

tame relic
#

uh i don’t think so

#

thats a very

#

drastic

#

change

median phoenix
#

I saw on Reddit that 63,000 applied so maybe

tame relic
#

you saw on reddit?

#

LMAO

median phoenix
#

don’t judge 💀 I’m stressed ok

floral grove
#

Where do people get these numbers

#

Do they have connections with rutgers employees

median phoenix
#

Idk I guess

drifting grotto
#

part of me feels like rutgers should not use commonapp next year

#

the way this might turn out seems unfair to in-state students, and on top of that, rutgers should still remain as a great and a realistic option for many transfer applicants from new jersey too, and im kinda worried with the use of the commonapp, that might not be the case any longer

floral grove
#

The acceptance rate would be slightly over 10%

#

That's like top 20 school level right there

drifting grotto
#

im not sure what the case exactly will be for oos students, but i heard rutgers was stingy with financial aid

#

so if that's true, then i wouldnt be surprised if many people from oos who applied ends up not choosing to go to rutgers

#

But after hearing all this, im glad i got into montclair already so at least that’s something

soft sage
#

why not

#

to be fair the UW oos admissions for computer engineering is like 2%

#

they can see where we came from

#

and it is obviously gonna be more lenient if you put you live in NJ on the common app

#

common app can see our genders too, I mean if not why is interview-less applications to Wellesley possible?

gentle geode
median phoenix
#

10% is a big difference

#

I think they accepted like 28,000 last year idk tho

little sluice
#

anyone know when decisios come out for EA?

boreal pumice
#

yeah 10% will commit but they accept hella

#

cuz a LOT of people in state choose out of state schools

floral grove
boreal pumice
#

ik basically all of my friends went to maryalnd

#

*maryland

floral grove
#

I thought class size was acceptances when I typed that lol

#

Early morning moment

boreal pumice
#

oh ok yeah acceptance rate will still be 50%

#

they don't accept by major too so its really easy to switch once you get into SAS

#

they don't give scholarship easily tho they're so stingent on it annoying fr

#

i wouldve gone even if i got like 5k

median phoenix
#

Do a lot of ppl get into sas

tame relic
#

like the people above said

#

lots of people get into rutgers

#

but due to NJ stigma not many people commit

#

at least from NJ

#

since people in NJ look down at rutgers

median phoenix
#

Why did they have to go on common app ughhh

tame relic
#

idk, if you get in you get in if you don't

#

theres other colleges out there

#

ig

tame relic
#

so i wouldn't take his word for verbatim

#

LMAO

median phoenix
#

Ur joking

tame relic
#

im not

#

look at his profile

median phoenix
#

Brooo

#

Let me look

#

I think we all got played

#

💀💀💀💀

#

The comments under his posts

tame relic
#

never

#

take info from reddit

#

LMAO

#

also either look at the Uni's page, or CDS..or a accredited source like USnews

#

etc.

#

I do think there is gonna be some form of increase in applications. But it is a state school

#

legally they have to set the priority of NJ kids over

#

oos kids

median phoenix
#

True true I mean it was kinda sus when he said 60% increase

tame relic
#

yeahhh...that's like what

#

15 thousand more applicants?

#

i love rutgers but

#

they aren't that good

median phoenix
#

Yeah it def went up but I don’t think it was like 63,000 more

#

Maybe I can relax now

tame relic
#

you should

median phoenix
#

😭 thanks for telling me

tame relic
#

my emailed the AO office and asked and they said EA would hear back before the month ended.

median phoenix
#

I don’t think a guidance counselor would need a study buddy

tame relic
tame relic
#

i hope so

#

NJ schools are notorious for being shitty with deadlines

#

like NJIT

median phoenix
#

Fr

#

Everyone’s getting waitlisted from there

#

I thought njit was easier to get into

tame relic
#

ehh

#

that is actually a case of increased admits

#

i got WL

#

because MY AO told me it was due to increased admits during EA1 for stem majors

#

I had a instant decision day so I spoke one on one with her

median phoenix
#

Ohh okay

#

U applied ea1?

tame relic
#

mhm

median phoenix
#

I got in but my major wasn’t that competitive

tame relic
#

what was it?

median phoenix
#

I know ppl w 1500+ getting waitlisted like that’s crazy

#

Computer engineering

tame relic
#

ooo nice

tame relic
#

tbh if you got waitlisted at least your app was good enough

#

the amount of seats just wasn't there

#

congrats tho NJIT isn't a slouch school. Still in Top 100 nationally

median phoenix
median phoenix
tame relic
#

yeah ofc ofc. Yeah like 80% of the people from my school got into Rutgers and just refuse to go because of

#

the whole

#

stigma around it

glacial prism
terse horizon
#

when does rutgers nb come out

drifting grotto
#

and i think RD applicants get theirs by the end of february if im correct

median phoenix
#

When did they come out

drifting grotto
#

well like i said, for some people it already came out, but for me and many other people, we still haven't gotten our decisions

#

personally i would wait towards the latter part of January before i go check the rutgers portal every hour im awake.

meager oasis
#

im oos and havent heard about it yet

tame relic
#

well yeah its a instate thing

#

that its a shitty school for being rutgers

terse horizon
#

did anyone get the decisions back that applied to business?

#

for nb?

hushed kettle
#

doesn't nb come out on the 31st

glacial prism
young kiln
hushed kettle
#

but i guess it makes sense since now its on common app

drifting grotto
median phoenix
#

Do u know if those ppl have gotten in

median phoenix

Atp I am fine w getting into sebs I think that’s the easiest one💀

restive mist
# median phoenix Don’t say that omg

In state shouldn't be an issue, although out of state will suck, and internationals: level impossible.

I applied from bottom of the Panhandle, so not expecting to reel any large fish here

#

If you are going for business and are sure on attending a Rutgers school, Newark is pretty neck & neck. Otherwise, New Brunswick obviously

median phoenix
#

I’m in in state but it still seems hard

soft sage
#

scholarships?

restive mist
# soft sage scholarships?

Def that, they'll accept you if you are willing to pay fat stacks. Getting accepted too, but def hard in the scholarships department

soft sage
#

makes sense 😭

floral grove
#

I used the wrong numbers

spice elm
#

still waiting for rutgers decision

#

They require me to include 7th semester on srar

#

To release the result

#

Anyone in this situation?

tame relic
#

in state they’ll always be more lenient with

#

because its a state public university

#

oos i can’t say

#

because i think legally they are required to have like 60% at least to be instate

#

residents

median phoenix
#

Wait so it will still be around 60% for us?

tame raptor
#

I thought Rutgers was minimum 80% instate

median phoenix
#

It was 66 last year I think

tame raptor
#

29857 instate and 4637 out of state

#

This excludes RBHS though. They calculate that separately, but ratios seem similar

#

But a ton more folks out of state for graduate programs

silk crypt
#

alr got like 1/2 of my bing tuition paid off from scholarships and njit possibly might get smth

silk crypt
tame raptor
#

Was addressing the percent from NJ

median phoenix
#

Ohh 😭 I was confused for a sec

opal nimbus
#

Bro Rutgers is def dropping their acceptance rate, our school got a letter saying there was a 60% increase in rutty apps and we're in state

median phoenix
#

It’s gonna be really hard this year then 😔😔

drifting grotto
#

Has a school ever withdrawn from the commonapp?

floral grove
#

They probably won't

#

Cause they make so much money off of application fees

#

Plus, having a lower acceptance rate makes them look better

drifting grotto
#

True

late crag
#

i put cs in the SAS as my second choice major, if i dont get into cs, can i still get into the SAS without a major?

#

or am i cooked

median phoenix
#

I think they admit by school not major

late crag
#

lfg

#

only a little bit cooked

median phoenix
#

Maybe apply to sebs

#

Just incase

#

I think that’s easier to get into

late crag
#

whats sebs

#

can i still apply to sebs new brunswick or nah

median phoenix
#

School of environmental and biological sciences

#

Yeah I think u should see add school when u open the portal

late crag
#

if i add it now, will it change whether i applied ea or rd for the other schools?

median phoenix
#

Tbh I’m not sure

late crag
#

aight i asked them

late crag
#

ruh rah rah

median phoenix
#

hope we get in 🤞🤞🤞

late crag
#

i aint getting in 💀

#

extreme reach for me

#

gl tho

floral grove
#

Rutgers will probably be my last ea decision to come out

#

And I say that because of the record number of applications they probably received

median phoenix
#

That’s why I’m worried

median phoenix
late crag
#

my stats are ok but if i get deferred, its over bc of senioritis

median phoenix
#

Yeah same 🥲

#

My biggest concern is not submitting my sat but I am sure I’m not the only one

spice elm
#

Is 98% gpa and 1580 sat safe?

#

Also i have ap cal bc 5 and stats 4 as intl

floral grove
#

Yes

spice elm
#

Can i gain scholarship?

floral grove
#

If you get into hc, then yes

spice elm
#

I was waitlisted

#

Wtf

#

How can it be real

median phoenix
#

U got ur decision?

spice elm
#

Yeas

median phoenix
#

When😳

#

How the heck did u get waitlisted from Rutgers

floral grove
spice elm
#

Intl bro

floral grove
#

By waitlisted, do you mean deferred or did they actually put you on a waitlist

#

That's insane

spice elm
#

They ask me to accept on waitlist or not

floral grove
#

Wow

#

Not even deferred

#

Now that rutgers is on common app, oos and international are going to have a way more harder time getting in

median phoenix
#

That’s crazy tho like

floral grove
#

Yeah

median phoenix
#

Ur stats are perfect what 😭😭

floral grove
#

I thought you would get honors college

median phoenix
#

This is scary

#

Righttt

floral grove
#

Yep

median phoenix
#

Im not even gonna check my portal

floral grove
#

Honestly, if I get rejected from rutgers, I will be fine

median phoenix
#

Im not

floral grove
#

I'm trying to move far from my parents anyway

median phoenix
#

😭 yeah that’s also true but still

floral grove
#

We're instate

#

So we should be fine for now

median phoenix
#

Yeah but this j shows how competitive it’s gonna be

floral grove
#

Oos is always competitive at most flagship state universities

#

In state, no so much because they are obligated to accept you

spice elm
#

So maybe i have to go to msu

#

Bye rutgers

floral grove
#

It's not joever

#

You still have a chance

spice elm
#

Can i email them to change my major from cs to applied math?

median phoenix
spice elm
#

I think the main reason i dont got into it's the major

median phoenix
#

They admit by school

#

Not major

spice elm
#

CS is crazy

floral grove
#

CS is crazy at every school

#

But yeah

#

Still surprised that they waitlisted you

#

When did you apply?

median phoenix
#

I applied for cs too but I don’t think they care what major u pick

median phoenix
floral grove
#

It was founded around the same time as other ivys

#

It could have been one

spice elm
spice elm
#

The amount of cs applicant is crazy

#

If they dont admit according major

median phoenix
#

They don’t

#

It’s by school

spice elm
#

CS is maybe 10 times more students than other major

median phoenix
#

True

#

But u were talking about switching ur major and that won’t make a difference

#

If it’s in sas

late crag
#

it is what it is 🤷‍♂️

soft sage
#

how

#

ea?

#

wouldn't that be defer

#

is it somehow possible that their RD's out

median phoenix
soft sage
silk crypt
#

its like a UC but not as competitive

#

but still competitive

#

or at least thats how i think of it

median phoenix
#

Hoping it’s not too bad for in state 🤞🤞

late crag
#

Bruh, I emailed Rutgers asking if my other apps would still be ea if I added a school, and they said yesterday was the last day 😭

late crag
# gentle geode for ea?

I was asking if I added another school, if the other Rutgers schools I applied to would change from ea to rd. Yesterday was the deadline to add a school so

median phoenix
#

There’s still an option to add school tho

late crag
#

You can still apply to the mason gross school of arts, that’s it tho

median phoenix
#

Oh really? It doesn’t let u add sebs?

late crag
#

Idk that’s just what their email said

#

The other schools will probably just be blanked out

median phoenix
#

Oh well it’s fine I’m sure u will get into sas it’s the easier one to get into

late crag
#

It would be really cool if Rutgers didn’t look at my gpa

#

Gpa optional

median phoenix
#

What is it 😭

late crag
#

3.49 unweighted

median phoenix
#

That’s not even bad 💀

late crag
#

hopefully im good enough for The Rutger

median phoenix
#

Same 🙏🙏 did u submit ur sat

late crag
#

yea

median phoenix
#

That’s good then I didn’t

spice elm
#

can i get in with 3.0 gpa and 1510 sat

floral grove
#

In state or oos

drifting grotto
#

For the people who got their EA decisions already, do you know if you immediately get notified via email the second your decision is posted on your application portal or is there a slight delay in getting email from when the decision is posted on the portal.

#

if i remember correctly, for newark, i found out my decision on the portal like a day before i got an email from them.

median phoenix
#

Yeah for Newark I got an email later

#

I don’t think anyone got their nb decision yet

drifting grotto
#

oh i thought i heard some people already got nb decisions

floral grove
#

I know 1 person who got it so far

#

He applied for business

#

Perfect score on act without superscore

#

His GPA is lower than average

median phoenix
#

What was it

floral grove
#

I don't remember the exact number

#

But it was low

next timber
#

has anyone gotten NB back yet?

floral grove
#

Nope

late crag
#

gulp

median phoenix
#

Im scared

lyric rover
#

Hi scared! I’m friend :)

median phoenix
#

Hi friend 😔

gusty turtle
#

Hi friend 😔

wooden wolf
#

is ea coming out on jan 31st? and if yes what time?

boreal trout
#

it could be friday january 26

median phoenix
#

I hope it’s earlier than that I can’t wait any longer

hushed kettle
lyric rover
floral grove
#

Someone told me that nb is not doing rolling this year

#

They will be releasing most of their decisions on one day

lyric rover
#

oh

median phoenix
#

Rutgers is being so annoying this year

silk crypt
#

just know within these two weeks all we need is patience atp

#

nothing else we can do anymore but wait

drifting grotto
next timber
#

yeah i think last day they can respond is the 31st

#

we j gotta wait

floral grove
#

They can still respond afterwards

#

If they pull a penn state

#

Or they defer a lot of people

#

So they have time to go through each application properly

median phoenix
#

They are prob gonna defer a lot of kids

tame relic
#

tbh penn state can accept hella ppl and just send them to

#

one of their 20 campuses

tame relic
#

its on common app

floral grove
#

Ok

#

I guess they will be sending most decisions around the same time

next timber
#

cuz IU’s deadline was the 15th to give a response but they got back to me mid day 16th

median phoenix
#

It’s finally in review for me

gentle geode
scenic sorrel
#

make sure you all join zeemee. students applying are there and that’s where you will find a roommate

glacial prism
scenic sorrel
#

applicant students and BTW not many people got accepted into rutgers NB if they did it’s because of a specific reason

glacial prism
#

like recruited athlete?

scenic sorrel
#

no

#

one girl got accepted bc her dad is a dean there

#

idk the rest

#

but there’s other applicant real ppl on zeemmee i don’t think it’s wired there just repetitive

#

early action is coming out the end of this month i think

glacial prism
#

yo @naive elk

scenic sorrel
#

and RD in february is what they were on about in that chat

glacial prism
#

ngl

scenic sorrel
#

maybe so

glacial prism
#

They said they had the most applications of all time

scenic sorrel
#

i didn’t even apply i was going to but im going to school in nyc thankfully

glacial prism
#

where

scenic sorrel
#

rutgers is definitely my favorite state school

glacial prism
scenic sorrel
#

i like umich and

naive elk
scenic sorrel
#

rutgers

glacial prism
#

do u know what that is

naive elk
#

Basically it’s things that happen at Rutgers that are out of your control that screw you over

glacial prism
#

uh oh

scenic sorrel
#

rutgers or rowan??

glacial prism
scenic sorrel
#

ppl in rowan group chat zeemme are weird honestly

#

ikk more diverse

#

and bigger

#

why don’t people like the camden and newark location

glacial prism
#

Rutgers is the only good state school in nj

scenic sorrel
#

people got accepted into those but not NB??

glacial prism
#

and Mid

#

also Camden

scenic sorrel
#

what’s that means

glacial prism
#

is a satelitte campus

scenic sorrel
#

ohhh okay

glacial prism
#

nb the main

scenic sorrel
#

ppl freak out abt getting accepted in rutgers NB why? isn’t the acceptance rank high

scenic sorrel
#

it’s like everyday they constantly ask and freak out about being accepted

#

yeahhh

#

these are the dates

naive elk
median phoenix
scenic sorrel
# median phoenix Wdym?

i’m saying that anyone that got accepted into rutgers new brunswick is because they did early decision (if they have that) or they have ties with the school. for example a girl got accepted into rutgers NB because her dad is a dean the school

#

everyone else is still waiting on there acceptance

#

some peoples application isn’t even under review yet even if they did early action

gentle geode
#

but could be athletic

scenic sorrel
#

yeah

scenic sorrel
# median phoenix Wdym?

i don’t mean in general though. just for now. idk what’s up with rutgers but there sending out late acceptances so i’m just saying that anyone who’s gotten accepted so far is because a specific reason

little sluice
#

when does EA come out

median phoenix
#

Ohhhhh okay cuz I thought u were talking about ppl getting rejected

#

Maybe next week?

next timber
marsh oyster
#

mine shows a tick on decision made also but there's no decision visible

median phoenix
#

I think you have to click view status

scenic sorrel
#

yes but don’t worry guys, you’ll get in good luck!

young kiln
#

Is Newark considered the worst Rutgers campus/location?

tame raptor
#

I thought Newark was supposed to be ok. I've not heard great things about Camden.

drifting grotto
#

honestly, i feel like there's a stigma about Camden, for obvious reasons. i dont know how good or bad it is, but regardless, i decided not to apply there.

floral grove

Mine is still unchanged

but like

#

its not something you would consider a great school in nj

#

feel like main good schools in nj are princeton, rutgers, stevens, and njit

#

engineering just got into the review phase td

#

just another week left basically

median phoenix
#

Omg yayyy

#

So close

pearl elm
#

I submited december 1st to arts and sciences

#

when do u guys think ill get my decision

floral grove
#

End of Feb or march

floral grove
#

But honestly, it depends on the major

#

And if you are fine being in Newark

#

For an oos person, Newark is a better location because you are right on the ne corridor and you have the airport

floral grove
#

And I applied engineering

median phoenix
#

Thats weird but hopefully it will go to under review soon

silk crypt
#

it has to be

floral grove
#

Rutgers is just slow lol

median phoenix
#

@silk crypt ok that makes me feel better 😭😭 ig it’s just random then

silk crypt
#

dw its a stressful week for all of us instaters 😭

#

like if i dont make it to rutgers eng im literally just going to finance

median phoenix
#

That’s my plan too if I don’t get into Eng I’m prob gonna do comp sci

#

I prob won’t get into Eng tho cuz I didn’t submit my sat lol

floral grove

rutgers accepts so many instate

glacial prism

everyone senior literally got in even 3.1 gpa

grim vigil

lol

#

ppl get deferred but they all get in

glacial prism

jk

#

my school naviance

glacial prism

K

grim vigil
#

school naviance shows all greens

glacial prism
grim vigil
#

nah it is

glacial prism
#

If it’s 80 for your school

late crag
#

i cant send images here but my school's scattergrams show basically everyone getting in

glacial prism
#

It didn’t mean anything

grim vigil
#

^^facts

late crag
#

on naviance

grim vigil
#

it doesn't matter if rutgers

#

switched to common app

glacial prism
#

Yea ut does

grim vigil
#

that doesn't mean more ppl will apply

#

they still have supplemental essays

glacial prism
late crag
#

btw, at my school, 100 ppl apply a year but only 10 end up going

grim vigil
#

show post?

glacial prism
grim vigil
#

cuz its such a mid school

glacial prism
#

Ur just yapping rn

grim vigil
#

its not going down that much

#

its was normally very high

#

especially for instate

#

and they're not even competitive for ilke cs

grim vigil
floral grove
late crag
#

though i dont 100% trust naviance bc ppl who get into camden and newark probably mark it as accepted to new brunswick

floral grove
#

This year, a lot of people will get deferred

grim vigil
#

bro even like ppl who had low gpas got in

floral grove
#

Or get sent to Camden and Newark

grim vigil
#

nah bro

#

its rutgers

#

ok maybe like ppl below 3.5

#

but if ur above ur like so chill

glacial prism
grim vigil
#

and its not even competitive for cs + engienering

grim vigil
glacial prism
#

U literally just said wrong information

grim vigil
#

what i said

#

is not wrong

#

i said that naviance reports basically green for rutgers

#

nb

glacial prism
grim vigil
#

ok i see now

#

but regardless the ascceptance rate will not go below 50%

late crag
grim vigil
#

i can gaurentee that they aint that competitive

glacial prism
grim vigil
#

will go down

#

like 5%

#

lol

glacial prism
#

The VP of enrollment said it would

late crag
#

but again ppl getting into camden are prolly marking it as accepted for nb

grim vigil
#

nah

#

they check

#

at least my counselor said so

glacial prism
#

It’s gonna be in the 50 range

grim vigil
#

cuz rutgers is connected

#

with new jersey schools

#

so they get decisions early

#

yea oos it might get harder for sure

#

but like whos going rutgers oos rather just go any public school

#

they don't have any specialized programs within t10-20

late crag
#

yea but my counslers weird af

glacial prism
grim vigil
#

not in state

glacial prism
median phoenix
#

It’s def gonna be lower than 50

#

If that many ppl applied

grim vigil
#

no it wont

median phoenix
#

💀

grim vigil
#

campus is huge

#

its gonna be exactly like 50

#

not lower than that for sure

median phoenix
#

They accepted around 27k last year

#

And it’s gonna be the same this year

grim vigil
#

its not gonna be under 50 now way

grim vigil
#

few pplc ommit

median phoenix
#

Ig that’s still a bit competitive tho

grim vigil
#

if u look at yield rate

#

its low

#

yield rate

median phoenix
#

Yeah that’s true

grim vigil
#

at other publics are high

#

like uiuc purdue georgia tch

#

yield rate is how admission are driven

#

like georgia tech has an AMAZING yield rate

#

which is why their acceptance rate is 15%

late crag
#

yea i think yield rate will go down

grim vigil
#

uiuic and purdue are exceptions for CS + engineering

median phoenix
#

I think they are prob gonna accept ppl with 3.8+ gpa and not like 3.2 like previous years

grim vigil
#

rest of their majors yeah they have low yield cuz they're not nkown for them

grim vigil
median phoenix
#

Idk all I know is that their engineering is very competitive

late crag
#

i think itll be a little more competitive but i doubt itll be anything crazy

median phoenix
#

Cs prob not too competitive cuz it’s in sas

#

And most ppl get into sas

#

Yeah ig we will find out soon 😭 as long as it’s not below 50% cuz I have no chance

late crag
#

on rutger's admitted student profile, the gpa and sat range for SAS engineering and buisness are pretty similar

grim vigil
#

bro what

#

compared to uiuc or purdue or gtech

#

🤣

median phoenix
#

It’s prob easier but it’s still competitive…

grim vigil
#

the only thing that i've heard is competitive is nursing

#

and their 6 year pharmacy program

#

like with 10% acceptance rate

#

ngl they're just gonna cut back on that

median phoenix
#

So not as competitive

glacial prism
#

If they accepted 29k students like they did last year why would the AR not be under 50

median phoenix
#

That’s what I was thinking like it would be around 45..

glacial prism
#

This kid Morpheus just talks bro

late crag
#

theyre probably accepting more. a lot of ppl probably applied just as a safety or bc their counsler told them so since its so easy now, so yield rate will probably go down imo

median phoenix
#

💀💀

glacial prism
#

That’s a huge risk

late crag
#

true

#

unless they pull a northeastern

median phoenix
#

Also just because 68k applied doesn’t mean they all have good stats yk

lyric rover
#

40% increase

#

Crazy

wooden wolf
lyric rover
#

Oh also this school had no essays right

#

Thays prob why

wooden wolf
#

so people might just apply cause why wouldnt they take a shot at it, you know

wooden wolf
median phoenix
#

Yeah

#

Idk I am still a bit nervous tho 😭

lyric rover
#

Bruh I thought Rutgers was a safety when I applied lol

median phoenix
#

I just hope the acceptance rate isn’t tooo low

#

same

lyric rover
#

Then I googled it’s ranking after and I was shocked

#

I thought it wasn’t even top 60

wooden wolf
#

im sure you guys will get it!

late crag
#

just looked at my transcript

#

I aint getting in 💀

#

gl guys

glacial prism
median phoenix
#

Bruh my grades are so MID

late crag
#

and im applying engineering

silk crypt
#

and doesnt rutgers have to admit a certain percent

#

of like in state students

#

bc like everyone in state knows ab rutgers it switching to common app wont change anything for us but for oos its a new school they can apply to instead of going through rutgers old separate application method

median phoenix
hushed kettle
median phoenix
#

Yeah so ig it’s mostly competitive for oos

median phoenix
glacial prism
#

The percentage

late crag
hushed kettle
#

seniors got in with a 3.0 last year for engineering (even if they got deferred)

median phoenix
#

Let’s just hope that happens this year too

silk crypt
#

remember my counselor explaining it to me but i never got a percent

glacial prism
#

The normal ar is like 70

silk crypt
#

idk the percentage i just know that they have to admit a certain amt

#

in state

glacial prism
#

In state has to be

#

75-80

silk crypt
#

probably

#

idk im not stressed on rutgers

glacial prism
#

School is mid icl

silk crypt
#

more interested in wether i got into honors

glacial prism
#

Everything about it is so mid

#

It’s cool tho

#

Nice lil school

humble stag
#

is rutgers difficult to get into by chance

silk crypt
#

depends

#

are you in or out of state

humble stag
#

out

glacial prism
humble stag
silk crypt
glacial prism
#

Like random OOS flagship state school easy

glacial prism
#

Not even close

silk crypt
#

if you were in state it would be easy as hell

#

you'd just have to be an average student

#

for things like pharm maybe above average by a bit

glacial prism
#

It’s like getting into Purdue for anything other than CS or ENG

#

Very easy

silk crypt
#

well as of rn oos might end up being more competitive

#

more applicants

#

most of the new ones are oos for sure

glacial prism
#

Does the Purdue or Rutgers have more of a name brand

humble stag
#

i got into purdue cs, will i get into rutgers cs

this was my rutgers essay

#

Choosing a university is a pivotal decision, and my aspiration to attend Rutgers University for Computer Science stems from a combination of academic excellence, vibrant campus life, and a distinguished faculty.

Rutgers University has established itself as a hub for cutting-edge research and innovation in the field of Computer Science. The comprehensive curriculum offered by the Department of Computer Science aligns with my passion for exploring the depths of computational theories and their practical applications. The university's commitment to fostering a collaborative and diverse learning environment resonates with my belief in the power of interdisciplinary collaboration.

Furthermore, Rutgers' location in the heart of the bustling tech corridor, coupled with its strong ties to industry leaders, provides an unparalleled opportunity for hands-on experience and networking. The prospect of engaging with renowned professionals and participating in internships within the thriving technological ecosystem is a key factor influencing my choice.

Beyond academics, Rutgers University offers a dynamic campus life. The diverse student body and an array of extracurricular activities promise a holistic growth experience. I am particularly drawn to the vibrant student organizations and hackathons that not only promote skill development but also encourage creative problem-solving—a crucial aspect in the ever-evolving field of Computer Science.

yeah like in engineering field purdue is well known

#

but like when i talked with it with my parents at first they thought i was talking about the chicken company

#

perdue

#

same with family

#

but like im guessing if you lived in the midwest/uppermidwest purdue would be more well known then rutgers

#

or at least more respected

#

depending on major

glacial prism

#

there were no essays except for honors college

gentle geode

bro out here shitposting for fun

silk crypt

and if you just gpt'd the honors college essay then that wont matter lol you just wont make it into honors

glacial prism
#

That is so funny man if real

if its real though why tf you worrying about rutgers oos with purdue 💀

whateva idrc about rutgers to defend it with my blood and tears

manifesting my jhu deferral but ngl purdue was my only hope to get out of nj

silk crypt

Like I said rutgers was mid not garbage

gentle geode
silk crypt
#

i might compare pricing with binghamton/penn state because i got penn state honors and then bing gave me like 60% off of tuition or around that

#

so like

#

we shall see

#

but prolly rutgers

#

fuck stevens

#

my ass is not going to hoboken

#

same with njit

humble stag
#

NJIT V RUTGERS, what has better cs

silk crypt
gentle geode
humble stag
#

diff between nb and newark?

silk crypt
#

and then rutgers rejects go to udel and random schools like u rhode island

gentle geode
silk crypt
#

for other things nb is just better

#

maybe not nursing

humble stag
#

just go to rutgers for cs, #41 natioanlly within local area is nice

silk crypt
#

im doing either engineering or finance i dont really know as of rn

#

applied to both

gentle geode

NB has way better career fairs

silk crypt
gentle geode
#

i thought ru-n was actually not bad for business

silk crypt
glacial prism
silk crypt
#

eh ik the stereotype is to party hard but a lot of the smarter people ik that you would think are trying to go for engineering or CS are going for finance/business majors

silk crypt
#

mfs ik taking part in sci olympiads and aerospace competitions just to major in business management or smth

glacial prism
#

Well I mean that the point of a business degree is for networking and internships not for the education

silk crypt
#

true

glacial prism
#

So like

#

It’s NB out buddy

#

Or bust*

#

If you going to rutgers

gentle geode

well yeah i wasnt trying to say newark was better just the programs in general are the same based on major

Does this mean I’m cooked

the wording sounded like they wanted to pass me on

whyd they switch to common app this year meltingsob noooo

late crag

Are ur stats good for Rutgers?

hushed kettle

I’d hope so

#

I’m in the middle of a lot of green boxes in my schools naviance

tame relic
#

tbh as long as your instate like you should be relaxing. If your stats are decent

#

its oos that is a lot more competitive

hushed kettle

On your application, you indicated interest in maximum admissions consideration across all of Rutgers. While your application is still under review with Rutgers–New Brunswick, we’re writing to inform you that it is now being reviewed for admission at Rutgers University–Camden and Rutgers University–Newark. Within the next few days, our admissions colleagues at Rutgers–Camden and Rutgers–Newark may notify you about additional opportunities.

Also, if you are in the upper-3's GPA and ain't applying to a competitive college at NB, you should be good for that acceptance

Yeah I think my stats are okay..

I have a 4.0 w

Hopefully good enough
