I think you have a good chance, but it mostly depends on which program you’re applying to. The College of Arts and Sciences is probably your best bet because the professional schools (nursing, business, etc.) are very selective and competitive.
Obviously the two schools are very different, but I was accepted to the New Brunswick campus with a 1580 SAT score (600 CR, 470 math, 610 writing). I’m a freshman here and have met many students with much worse scores than yours.
Good luck!
You are within their 25-75 SAT range, so if your essays are good and you have decent recommendations, you definitely have a good shot.
