<p>^^^Wow, just wow…I guess the NJ admissions rep got his/her “you know what” together…congrats to all and thank goodness the debacle of last year has been resolved…</p>
<p>For those of you that have gotten in, what exactly does it say on the " Admission Application Status"? For me it doesn’t say anything to indicate that my application is even being reviewed -is that how its supposed to be?</p>
<p>are you guys implying that most of the nj kids that are getting in already got in and there isn’t too much hope for ppl like me (nj kids still waiting for a decision)?</p>
<p>ahhh i am already into my sixth week of waiting…I thought decisions would be released sooner. Is it possible that international applicants have to wait a little longer than in-state + US citizens?</p>
