Anyone else here with students getting their Rutgers app ready? D26 here is noticing on the foibles of the application - no teacher recommendations! Will be curious to see if they get a crazy number of apps like last year.
I don’t believe they’ve ever asked for LoRs (or at least not in the past decade).
They had a huge surge in applications last year because they moved to the common app. I expect they will have similar numbers this year.

Yeah, we hadn’t appreciated the no recommendations! Part of her not sending in the app was thinking that she still needed to get her rec letters in and submitted, but apparently not!
And I’m looking forward to seeing the CDS for them once it comes out. Will be interesting to get the harder data on what the app volume was, admission rates, yield, etc. Not that we’d be able to use it - just idle curiosity at this point.
