Rutgers University (2024-2025)

[narrow quarry]

ur good bro its confusing

[undone portal]

💀

[crystal pawn]

oh, I see

thanks

[rigid lynx]

Yea

Idk shouldnt be hard

[vestal arch]

i sent my fafsa in november and that says waiting too

[rigid lynx]

Even if u wanna transfer between schools

But no u arent locked into major until you declare in soph yr

[mental plinth]

[safe geyser]

rutgers still hasn't gotten my fafsa 💀

[narrow quarry]

rutgers app portal is so weird lol

[mental plinth]

its old

[narrow quarry]

sent my srar 1/27 and isn’t checked off

definitely visual bug

[mental plinth]

[narrow quarry]

bro

wtf

im tweaking my bad

i just tapped the reply and didn’t even check the date

[mental plinth]

[safe geyser]

rutgers newark mailed my admissions letter lol

[mental plinth]

i still havent got my nb one

[dense zinc]

rutgers

[safe geyser]

rutger

[mental plinth]

Rutgah

[faint ocean]

how good is rutgers engineering

specifically aero

[eternal willow]

engineering is good everywhere

[narrow quarry]

good

does anyone know if RD is rolling decisions or a set date

[frigid ingot]

rolling i think?

[dense zinc]

RUTGERS UNIVERSITY

[narrow quarry]

rutgasssss

[dense zinc]

GASS

[crystal pawn]

how do you check?

[safe geyser]

go to net id

and look at finnancial aid

[crystal pawn]

I see

huh it still hasn't gotten mine either

I submitted it like early january

should I email admissions?

[safe geyser]

idk zero clue

they prob just gonna send out fin aid

like in a few months or smth

im guessing they just don't have thing to say we have it or not and will just give the notification all at once or smth

[mental plinth]

Yeah I think Rutgers this year made no difference

Still the high acceptance rates

[narrow quarry]

It seems like Rutgers just sucks at updating their portals

if ur fafsa website says its submitted it should be

[narrow quarry]

extremely skewed results

people in an applying to college discord are way more likely to get in compared to average students

[mental plinth]

so we are just sweaty asses?

[safe geyser]

that + most ppl that responded probably got in cuz they looked into this channel to post their acceptance 💀

[thick cedar]

just sent in my loci that no one is gonna read 😁

[mental plinth]

[narrow quarry]

yes

most likely

not an accurate sample

if u asked 100 random people their decisions not a2c it would be different for sure

if anyone gets in reg decision @ me pls

[mental plinth]

[mental plinth]

howd it go?

rip

[thick cedar]

omg lol i got that too

[safe geyser]

most ppl i asked that aren’t a2c got waitlisted or rejected

[thick cedar]

j wait

i saw people get off waitlist late feb last year!

[narrow quarry]

i live near Rutgers and maybe 30% got deferred

[undone portal]

30% GOT DEFERRED??

WHAT THE HELL??

maybe bc my school is hella smart like i only know of one person who got deferred

im in nj too

[narrow quarry]

idk that’s a super rough estimate

but

[manic beacon]

yae idk what its backed on

some of my friends who got into Nb werent as competive as a friend who got deffered

idk

[narrow quarry]

one of my friends was super good and got rejected from every nb and waitlisted sebs

it’s crazy man

i felt so bad cuz his stats are better than mine but atleast I got deferred

[manic beacon]

Yep my best friend has good stats I’d say for a T30s and he got deffered

From Stevens and Rutgers 😭

[mental plinth]

I think rutgers look more into ecs

I have a friend thats sweaty asf

1520 with mid ecs

Got waitlisted

[safe geyser]

omg that means my ecs aren’t horrible 🥺 (joke)

idk i think they just actually do holistic admissions or smth

they prob do it based off first gpa/stats then if you have something else that stands out like good essays u get in

[mental plinth]

Then why did people with insane stats not get in tho

[narrow quarry]

yield maybe

literally everyone in NJ applies here so

good amount of nj kids go oos

[mental plinth]

Hmm fair

[upper raven]

am i cooked if the portal still doesn't show my app as 'under review'

[honest thorn]

if you're RD then no

Mine never showed "Under Review"

it's a bug

[upper raven]

oh alr

[upper raven]

good to know

[upper raven]

Yep, RD

EA would've come out a long time ago now right?

[mental plinth]

Yep
Ea come out latest feb 1 i think
Or jan31

[honest thorn]

mine came 23rd Jan iirc

[upper raven]

My buddy got his RD back on 24th Jan LOL

[scenic pond]

According to US News, the Newark campus has an acceptance rate of ~79%.

[honest thorn]

iirc Rutgers NB EA came out on 23rd

Newark is rolling

[upper raven]

He was accepted to all three campuses by 24th. If I remember correctly he had gotten Camden quite a while back.

bro got into nb rd in jan 😭

[mental plinth]

stats

[mental plinth]

inaccurate asf

[foggy river]

thats crazy

[mental plinth]

bruh

its not accurate

not this year

[scenic pond]

Yeah, the Department of Education reports 64.9%, but that's from 2023. It's probably incredibly difficult to get an accurate percentage for this year, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was significantly less than 65%.

[rose thistle]

Acceptance rates on google are so misleading tho😭

[undone portal]

getting deferred from stevens is crazy work

[manic beacon]

Yea idk so is it cause like yield protection or just a bad application and essays?

Or he’s too good of an application so they know ifs a safety?

I’m genuinely scared for bro

[undone portal]

honestly it might be more of the latter

but idk for sure

they might do yield protection

what were his stats

i think it's more of the latter tbh

[manic beacon]

1460 SAT, robotics club 1 internship some other clubs in school

Leadership in two

4.0 gpa I think

Idk won’t feel like yield protection?

[undone portal]

holy

how did he get deferred bruh

[manic beacon]

I have no clue, he got into Penn state though

[undone portal]

penn state is easy

like

they arent all that selective tbh

[manic beacon]

Yeah, probably insta accept with gpa and sat

[narrow quarry]

just got my newark acceptance letter in the mail today

nb reg decision pls hurry😭🙏

[manic beacon]

Same it’s so ass

Give me some merch or some

[crystal pawn]

oh does nb send anything in the mail?

[narrow quarry]

if newark did I’m sure nb does

[mental plinth]

Yes

They do

[toxic garden]

for srar, I'm early grad this year so should I put my actual grad year (2026) or this year (2025)?

or can someone just leave me their admission service contact please

[lapis shale]

What was your Stats, did you submit SAT score

Do Rutgers-NB meet demonstrated need, I hear for the first semester I have to pay?

Any accepted Pharm D stu here from Rutgers - NB?

[narrow quarry]

No they don’t

The aid is like most public schools

If ur in state it’s okay tho

Idk abt pharm d but

[thick cedar]

got waitlisted 💔

[lapis shale]

What was your Stats

[thick cedar]

3.94 1440

[faint ocean]

tf

i thought gpa was foremost for rutgers

[clever urchin]

isnt that a graduate course?

[eternal willow]

they have direct admission

[eternal willow]

public schools dont really give aid

[tribal raven]

maybe yield

[faint ocean]

i have 3.98 and 1510

it’s not yield

[eternal willow]

yield protection isnt a thing

[eternal willow]

if youre not in-state nothing is guaranteed

[dense zinc]

yes

[faint ocean]

that’s so odd

[thick cedar]

but i am instate 💔

[eternal willow]

well

new jersey bad new jersey ugly

come to the best big10 school (usc)

[thick cedar]

no offense but i'd rather die than go to cali

[eternal willow]

damn

im from pa and going back home for winter break almost killed me

[thick cedar]

understandable

pa dont have anything

[dense zinc]

🤓

[glad sleet]

When does rd come out?

[narrow quarry]

Before 2/28

[glad sleet]

Thanks

[narrow quarry]

@tame cave

Engineering and pharm are the most competitive

[narrow quarry]

Then RBS and nursing probably

Then everything else

[tame cave]

i applied to rutgers business, engineering, pharm and liberal arts

[narrow quarry]

Sas is okay

U should be good

Pharm and engineering are comp asf tho

[tame cave]

[stray parcel]

[narrow quarry]

[stray parcel]

[glad sleet]

Yeah

[stray parcel]

bouta write the most fire DSF

[narrow quarry]

idk if it’s just me but my updated SRAR still doesn’t show as checked off

i was thinking it was a visual glitch

cuz srar says it was sent 1/28

[glad sleet]

It did for me, i think it just might be a glitch

[glad sleet]

Yea probably a glitch then

[narrow quarry]

It is checked off for u?

[glad sleet]

Let me check it

[tame cave]

i got it checked off

[narrow quarry]

bruh

wtf

maybe it’s cuz I only did my first quarter?

but I don’t have my mid year grades finalized yet

my school is so annoying with that

but Rutgers said I could do first quarter

[tame cave]

GUYS PSU IS OUT

DO I GOT THIS

[glad sleet]

Oh yea i dont bave it checked out either

[narrow quarry]

PSU?

[tame cave]

penn state

[glad sleet]

Ez

[narrow quarry]

Oh wtf

[tame cave]

penn state is out for me

[stray parcel]

light work bro

[narrow quarry]

Did u do mid year or just a quarter

[tame cave]

got that shit in the 💰

[glad sleet]

Mid year

[narrow quarry]

I got rejected from UP

[tame cave]

granted

sociology is 💀

[glad sleet]

LFG 🔥

[stray parcel]

goat

[narrow quarry]

I did finance UP with Harrisburg as my alternate and only got into the 2+2 bullshit💔

[stray parcel]

main campus too

you got it

[tame cave]

yes sir

[tame cave]

yo ur getting screwed dawg

[foggy river]

the tuition is next level

[tame cave]

when my dad went to college he had a 2.9 gpa got into UW

[glad sleet]

@narrow quarry i checked the srar it says it submitted 🤔 must be a glitch yea

[tame cave]

im trying so hard not to panic

BUT THEY DO SUCH A BAD JOB

and managing their apps.

[foggy river]

u dub?

or wisconsin

[tame cave]

yeah

[foggy river]

dang

i mean

in ur dad time udub isnt that popular so

[tame cave]

still

for cs

it was j about when like gates and bezos and boeing took over seattle right

so a lot of ppl were going to UW cuz of the over funding by them

but now its j too good

[narrow quarry]

@glad sleet

bruh

[glad sleet]

Man rutgers is goofy what are they doing 💀 they should update that shit damn

[narrow quarry]

There’s no way it’s not a visual glitch

Cuz Pitt received them

[tame cave]

do u guys consider PSU or Pitt better

[glad sleet]

Pitt imo

The big reason is that Pitt aint in the middle of nowhere lmao

[tame cave]

i think psu for business

pitt for cse

University of Pennsylvania
Carnegie Mellon University
Lehigh University
Villanova University
Pennsylvania State University (University Park)
University of Pittsburgh
Temple
Drexel University
Lafayette College
Bucknell University

im ngl

temple also gets hated on immenselty

[glad sleet]

Lehigh is dope I shouldve applied

[foggy river]

call em

just

barge into their Admissions office

[dense zinc]

rutgers

[rigid lynx]

Its ok ruscrew be like that sometimes

[eternal willow]

bucknell being so low is cray

also lafayette

[eternal willow]

penn state is generally better than pitt if youre looking for good athletics and good campus life

yea pitt is in the city but state college is a great college town + becomes the 3rd most populated place in pa during football game days

campus is also much larger (one of the biggest in the world iirc), you have the benefits of one of the largest alumni networks of any college, theres a larger student body, and more oos students go to penn state than pitt

[glad sleet]

Penn State is the university to go to if you want that stereotypical college life u see on the movies and stuff

College town, big school, good athletics, good parties

[upper raven]

How am I supposed to fix this? I submitted my SRAR ages ago

like it says submitted on my srar too since like a month ago

[honest thorn]

email admissions

[upper raven]

bet
also i got an email this morning saying there was an update and my portal says a decision has been made but clearly theres no decision

[honest thorn]

lol wtf

email asap

[upper raven]

bet

[honest thorn]

they helped me a lot

[upper raven]

lowkey do i just withdraw rutgers

[honest thorn]

y? got into smthin better?

[upper raven]

yea i got uiuc

[honest thorn]

yea then you should

but you paid for it so don't withdraw NB at least

[upper raven]

true

[honest thorn]

uiuc eng?

or phy

[upper raven]

eng

meche

[honest thorn]

aaah ic

[upper raven]

phy is just what i applied wherever they wouldn't let me have ee/ece as second major lol

[honest thorn]

ic ic lol

Rutgers NB is good

don't withdraw NB

[upper raven]

alr

[foggy river]

rutgers is tweaking 😭

[wind orbit]

[undone portal]

[undone portal]

smeal is tough ive heard

[manic beacon]

Freaky ahh kid

[foggy river]

its a joke for any mods watching over 😭

[narrow quarry]

@glad sleet i submitted my mid year instead of my first quarter last night and it already checked off

that’s so weird

[foggy river]

the srar thing

it didnt check until i recieve the decision

when i called nb they said they got everything they needed and its prolly a glitch

so better call em

[narrow quarry]

no it worked

mine is checked now

because I put my mid year last night

i guess they don’t want quarterly

but I didn’t have my mid year when I got my deferral

[safe geyser]

btw for rutgers how tf does the housing work

cuz aren't u supposed to fill out form like by yesterday

but if not committed then like what

[honest thorn]

wait what?

I didn't enroll yet, am I cooked?

[safe geyser]

idk there has to be smth im missing

like no way they only let ppl ea to get priority housing

[safe geyser]

it's like for priority housing u can still apply for housing after

[honest thorn]

ic

[glad sleet]

Interesting

[narrow quarry]

sigh

🙁

does anyone know how this works

check ur portals guys they’re doing some RD today

[foggy river]

middle what

💀

[narrow quarry]

wdym?

oh

that’s the county

😭

[foggy river]

thats crazy

i mean

im pretty sure that whatever college would be cheaper

than rutgers

so just smack out all gen eds

and join nb next year

[narrow quarry]

bro fuck all that

im not going to community college

id rather just work at mcdonalds my entire life

[foggy river]

ur

[foggy river]

2 YEARS?

OH HELL NAW

[narrow quarry]

[foggy river]

oh nah thats cruel

😭

[narrow quarry]

it’s so stupid bruh

[foggy river]

just go to princeton

instate :D

[narrow quarry]

what else should I have to do to get into a state school I live 10 mins away from

Jesus man

[foggy river]

its alright

every state school became money hungry

this time

😭

(even then i got deferred from so many)

[narrow quarry]

im so cooked

newark is ass

i don’t wanna go there

[foggy river]

also just to make u feel better

i feel like rutgers hygiene is out of the world

||once i saw a pic of poop in their toilet|| -----> dont open if u get disgusted easily

TW beforehand

and many questionable reddit posts since a long time

[hollow igloo]

same😭😭

[narrow quarry]

did you get in?

[hollow igloo]

i got in newark

nb waitlisted

[foggy river]

where else yall got acceptances from

[undone portal]

What were your stats

[undone portal]

Well you got into rbs

Just transfer into the major you want after first sem

[manic beacon]

Oh shit I got into NB

It says school of engineering

Which is Nb right

[foggy river]

yes

[manic beacon]

Oh shit nice I got into all theee

Three

[hollow igloo]

[manic beacon]

😭😭

Also if I don’t wanna go to rutgers is there a thing where I can like say no? So other people have a chance

[undone portal]

Same I only applied for NB and got in for all three choices

[manic beacon]

I’m def rejecting Newark rn but gonna think about business school

Confused between finance and engineering

But dw I’ll do it soon

Imma just wait till T20s results

But 70% chance I reject rutgers business

So you have a higher chance

Also where do I find our scholarships and etc?

[narrow quarry]

it’s newark

i wanna do business but not in newark

[narrow quarry]

3.6 freshman-junior and mid year senior was a 4.2

decent essay

ec is worked for 25 hours a week since freshman year

test optional but I got a 1230 and 27

[manic beacon]

For rutgers

If we got any

[thick cedar]

same

[rose thistle]

Why not go to Newark and transfer

[rigid lynx]

Wasnt that like yesterday lol

[foggy river]

yeah

is the situation that bad

[rigid lynx]

As a girl i did not have many bad experiences

Except for sometimes bus people smell funky

Moreso in warmer weather

[foggy river]

which major btw

[rigid lynx]

Math

[foggy river]

i see

[foggy river]

oh nice

[rigid lynx]

Do u go there

[foggy river]

no but its one of the unis i got admitted into

how reputable is rutgers

its like very close to ny but then NJ is costly

[rigid lynx]

No idea

My perception is skewed

Bc im from jersey

People tend to downplay it here

Bc princeton lol

[foggy river]

is honors college rly hard

[rigid lynx]

But ive heard people farther have a better perception

Like

[foggy river]

ohhh instate

[rigid lynx]

To get into or to do

[foggy river]

then rutgers is like very cheap

[rigid lynx]

For us yea its relatively cheap

[foggy river]

ill prolly have to pay like 55k to attend there

[rigid lynx]

Yea…

Thats rough

What major

[foggy river]

i mean

[foggy river]

cs

[foggy river]

every uni except purdue is costing approx the same range

50-60k

[rigid lynx]

Oh damn

[rigid lynx]

Lol good luck getting classes

[foggy river]

wdym

[rigid lynx]

Theres lots of cs majors so i heard people have trouble getting classes smtimes

[foggy river]

oh 💀

yeah im not stepping into rutgers then

[rigid lynx]

Tbf its like a problem in most places

Also if u want cons buses suck lol

[foggy river]

if only any private uni accepts me

ill be the happiest person

[foggy river]

yeah heard of them

[rigid lynx]

Is purdue notpriv

[foggy river]

nope

[rigid lynx]

Oh what

[foggy river]

its a land grant public

i believe

[rigid lynx]

Oh icic

well good luck with your apps

[foggy river]

thanks :)

[frigid ingot]

same!!

[narrow quarry]

honestly it sounds dumb but

i just wanna go somewhere 4 years and not worry about it

it’s not the academics I don’t wanna go to Newark for

the business school is just as good

it’s just that all I’ve heard is it’s a boring commuter school

[manic beacon]

If we got any

[narrow quarry]

soon I think

[cyan owl]

i got an email saying i got a scholarship from camden

and i open scholarship on portal

and theres nothing

lmao

[safe geyser]

got exact same thing lmao

[safe geyser]

i curious how is program at rutgers i applied math and got in i wanna hear tho

[rigid lynx]

Honestly the profs were mainly pretty good

Only had one bad experience

Its pretty easy to get classes

Id say rutgers has a pretty good math department

[safe geyser]

oh i got 30k from camden

[manic beacon]

How do I check scholarships and etc?

From where exactly?

[safe geyser]

i think just camden sent out email

check your portal

rn it's just merit scholarships need based is later

[manic beacon]

Like netaid portal

I hope I got a merit scholarship

[safe geyser]

nah just application portal

they have this thingy

[manic beacon]

Ohhh Damm

I haven’t gotten any yet or not getting any 😭

[safe geyser]

did u apply camden?

[manic beacon]

Do merit scholarships come out directly after application

Nah Newark and New Brunswick

[safe geyser]

yeah that's why

those aren't out yet 😭

[manic beacon]

Ohh when do they come out 😭 😭

[safe geyser]

new brunswick should be on netid prob in a month

newark prob gonna come out before then

[manic beacon]

Oh alright Damm

[hollow lynx]

@hardy magnet

[thick cedar]

[glad sleet]

Still

[flat forge]

Is it true Rutgers is full of brown people?

If so that’s me 😉

[glad sleet]

They literally have brown frats

Also its located in the most highest concentrated area of Indians in America (central new jersey)

So if ur South Asian you’ll fit right in

[red fog]

I got my rd from Brunswick today is that not normal?

[glad sleet]

Alot of people are getting it

[red fog]

Ok

[glad sleet]

I think they started rolling it out now, but I didnt get mine yet so Ill wait

[hardy magnet]

hpoefully

[flat forge]

So is it worth going to Rutgers main campus for engineering out of state?

Need an opinion :((

I got rejected my in state school (UIUC) engineering and deferred Purdue

And got into Minnesota twin cities

But all the out of state options are too expensive for me

Rutgers is my next hope if I get denied Purdue

Would it be worth it?

[clever urchin]

oh that could be whyy

[clever urchin]

same, but my instate is maryland

[rigid lynx]

Yes lol

[clever urchin]

im assuming a lot of the asians are brown ppl

[red fog]

I applied their too idk what I’ll do if I get in!?

Those who got their scholarship, did you guys receive any mail before that I'm international I haven't got yet, tho they said will receive in March or April

[narrow quarry]

If it doesn't say honors then does that mean I didn't get it

[clever urchin]

For nb?

[hardy magnet]

newark so far

[stable drum]

MAN
I went to CC, I would’ve loved that opportunity :-(

It’s not bad, trust me
It’s way cheaper, and if you quality, Garden State Guarantee will basically mean you don’t owe any tuition at all

[lime zodiac]

guys who else has financial aid in their portal for nb?

its showing N/A

is this federal aid? Can they even give 0?

[rose thistle]

Where do you see this

[lime zodiac]

in the rutgers portal on the app

myRutgers

on my laptop it shows up differently still says completed and doesn't give any aid information tho

[rose thistle]

??

[lime zodiac]

yeah shows the same for me when i get to that page, probably because I didn't enroll yet

[rose thistle]

Oh do I need to do that

[lime zodiac]

id assume it only shows once you pick a school

[rose thistle]

Yea I'm not enrolling here tbh

[lime zodiac]

just to see cost of attendance not to see financial aid

[rose thistle]

Oh I can't see the financial aid either

[lime zodiac]

yeah might just not be out yet but they're getting it ready

[summer stream]

in state?

i believe in you bro you got it fs 🙏

[narrow quarry]

yes

[narrow quarry]

nah I might stay at newark

idk

the business school is exactly the same

and closer to nyc, smaller class sizes

Maybe

I wouldn’t call it dead

Dead compared to NB for sure but

[hollow lynx]

yo r u in state

[glad sleet]

Out if state

California

[hollow lynx]

oh

[dense zinc]

@narrow quarry how to set up net id

🤓

[narrow quarry]

https://netid.rutgers.edu/index.htm

then just fill in anything it asks for

ur RUID is at the top of your application portal next to your status

[summer stream]

im in state whats up

[dense zinc]

thanks sigma

@narrow quarry is merit aid in community id or net id

😭

no way i got no aid

nothing to see

[safe geyser]

new brunswick isn't out yet

that the important oe fr

[dense zinc]

tri

tru

if i get like 10k i can consider this more

[safe geyser]

idk i just want enough so it's cheaper than my instate 😭

oh wait nvm

read tuition wrong

[dense zinc]

yes

[safe geyser]

idk as long as it's like competitive to my instate ones just what i want 😭

[dense zinc]

yes

[narrow quarry]

it was In my application portal

[dense zinc]

😭

[red fog]

Do you need to accept the admission to see aid? I don’t see any financial info on my portal

[rigid lynx]

This is real

[red fog]

Yep I simply can’t track the logic that led to some of y’all losing your spot to my dumbahh

[honest thorn]

i'm pretty sure NB AR is 40+ maybe even in low 50s

[lime zodiac]

that's what i would guess, if they admit the same number of people as last year

[lime zodiac]

how? did you get into the honors college?

[narrow quarry]

only newark and camden merit scholarships are out

[honest thorn]

they won't

iirc they over admitted last year

and last year AR for NB overall was around 58 iirc

this year it's either gonna be in 40s or low 50s

[hollow igloo]

why only this year man

[honest thorn]

last year NB's overall AR dropped by 10% and still they over-admitted

this year ig it'll be lower than 2024

[hollow igloo]

yeah

[honest thorn]

no idea

like waitlist AR?

it'll depend on the school for sure

RBS and SAS most competitive ig?

engineering too

gl gl

[foggy river]

nah trust me half of the accepted people wont commit

u got this

but then

the waitlist stuff will come after may 1st

[foggy river]

if u

commit to newark

and then lets say nb gives u admission

how can u transfer

[foggy river]

i see

[red fog]

No this year it plummeted man

[stable drum]

So nervous, I want to get in Mason Gross

[honest thorn]

idts

[red fog]

What?

[stable drum]

I applied on the 31st of January. How long did you all take to receive responses?

[red fog]

I applied on the rd common app deadline and got it this Wednesday

[stable drum]

I just completed my portfolio yesterday so maybe it hasn’t been reviewing for other schools yet?

I’m transfer, prob different

[stable drum]

Aaaah whaaaa

[honest thorn]

that it's that low

[red fog]

No idk what that abbreviation means sorry I’m dumb

[stable drum]

I don’t think so

[red fog]

Ohhhh

[red fog]

Idk maybe but those are the only numbers I’ve seen, common app inclusion really dropped it

[honest thorn]

issoke

being dumb is cool

[hollow igloo]

works only with hot girls

[red fog]

Yea I’m ugly asl

[stable drum]

Don’t say that

Do you guys know about Newark academically? Do people have a bias for it?

[hollow igloo]

i think the degree in the end u get will not matter much

if its nb or newark

[stable drum]

I think it’s pretty dumb. The only iffy thing is they don’t have a lot of degrees tht interests me, like Comp Lit etc etc

NB does

But other than that it’s still Rutgers

[honest thorn]

hot dumb girls 🔥

[narrow quarry]

NB and Newark business school are equal

Cuz it’s the same

[undone portal]

i had a lower gpa same sat and got into rbs 💀

[glad sleet]

They jst hate me bro congrats tho

[dense zinc]

how is rutgers health school ‼️

[undone portal]

thanks lol

[boreal urchin]

is rutgers cs worth 50k/yr oos over a t120 instate flagship honors college

i think rutgers is gonna be my top choice if i dont get in gt or purdue deferral

[summer stream]

instate?

[undone portal]

yuh

[undone portal]

yea i'd say so

[stray parcel]

huh

[undone portal]

t120 vs rutgers means rutgers is 99% more recognized

[stray parcel]

no dude💀

50k is crazy

just go instate

[undone portal]

depends on their financial situation

but if they cant afford it then obv the other choice

[stray parcel]

if it was like

[undone portal]

but if they can

rutgers is the way to go

[stray parcel]

t120 vs purdue or gtech

I would go purdue or gtech

but rutgers is totally mid

[glad sleet]

Hell nah

[undone portal]

rutgers is rank 15 in public schools

dunno where you got the fact that rutgers is totally mid from

tldr: if you can afford it go rutgers, otherwise go to the state flagship

[stray parcel]

prolly cause I'm instate and we don't view rutgers as allat here

[undone portal]

im in state too

rutgers is solid

[stray parcel]

it's solid bt

but

[undone portal]

new brunswick

[stray parcel]

not worth 50k

imo

sorry

[undone portal]

not newark or camden

[stray parcel]

yeah

new brunswick isn't worth 50k

[undone portal]

if the rutgers campus the guy was talking about was newark or camden then state flagship is the better choice

[stray parcel]

probably new brunswick

[stray parcel]

it's the better choice anyways

I simply don't see a reason to pay 50k for rutgers

[flat forge]

Woahhh

That’s as close as UIUC engineering in state I think 🤔

Why did UIUC not accept me in state and Rutgers did oos 😭

[red fog]

Yea common app made them get 80k applicants

[flat forge]

Wowwww

[red fog]

https://tenor.com/view/dcg-dragonclawgames-spin-spinning-wheel-gif-21987668

Pure chance

[flat forge]

Bruh I wanted UIUC tho 😭

Rutgers is too expensive for me

[red fog]

🫡

[red fog]

Idk I got in Rutgers for pre med at nb but rejected from university of Minnesota Rochester for pre med😭🤣

[undone portal]

because uiuc is more competitive and higher ranked than rutgers

[undone portal]

same

[vestal arch]

bc uiuc engineering is leagues above rutgers

[red fog]

Yea but who tf wants to live in Champaign🤣

[narrow quarry]

Nobody
