Will we be able to see scholarship awards after activating NetID?

Once you activate Net ID and enter my Rutgers portal using Net ID… there will be a dashboard for Financial aid and scholarships. We don’t have anything yet!

I have indicated three choices at NB and got deferred for my second one (engg), but the first and third choice are still “under review”. I guess I’ll keep refreshing.

First choice is still under review is a good sign. Deferral also something positive and wish the best for your kid. Many with acceptances have multiple offers including my Eng admit kid ( he prefer Pitt Eng over Rutgers) … so good chance of acceptance once the mid year grades are updated!

Will there be an actual acceptance letter at some point? Or simply the status changed to admitted?

When/how do we hear if merit was awarded?

When my kid was accepted to Newark, he got a congratulatory email with link to portal and offer acceptance. Not sure an official letter was included.

Daughter admitted to both Nursing and SAS. OOS.
