Rutgers University New Brunswick Early Action for Fall 2024

We just got the same letter

Did not get letter. I forget if I said I would be open to other campuses

I think anybody who indicated to be considered at all campuses got the email as each of their campuses review the application separately for admission.

I just checked my common app and I clicked yes for considering other schools but didn’t receive that email

Same

S24, OOS has not received the email (yet). In Common App, he indicated Yes - be considered for admission to other available schools at Rutgers.
He already has admit from Newark (Arts and Sciences) a few weeks ago.
First preference, NB shows In Review for last couple of weeks.

We did not get that email either. My friend who works at Rutgers mentioned it to me about Max admission consideration. He said for NB, the rejection and waitlist will be released first so Newark and Camden will review those application for admission consideration. Acceptance will be released after WL and rejection.

Does he know when decisions will be released? As per twitter message (which was not very specific), is it this Friday, 26 Jan?

Is that new for Rutgers to consider acceptance at another campus? I never heard of it before. I was under the impression you needed to specifically apply to Camden or Newark to be considered - not solicited. Am I interpreting correctly what your friend has expressed?

Does receiving the email indicate a rejection from NB?

So if we get a decision on the 26th, Is it only rejection and waitlist? Mine went in review a few days ago so I feel like I might get a decision before others

I think this is the best sign to have

Hope so! did you get an email?

No, but I also said no to being considered for other schools.

ooh okay. Is ur under review?

This is my first high school senior going through college application, so I really don’t know if it’s new, but it does make sense. Rutgers wants to retain as many students as possible. Since they got your application for NB already, why not forward to Newark or Camden to review and get max chance to keep students within Rutgers umbrella. I remembered that I asked him if all campus share same admission system in the backend and he told me yes. Then it makes sense. They did not share your information with other school, it’s still within Rutgers system. But I am not 100% sure if they will still do that if you specified that you don’t want to be considered for other campus.

Yes, as of late December to very early January

in state right? sorry I am asking too many questions but I don’t know many people who are in state and in review so I am not sure if it’s a good thing lol

My son didnt select other campuses last year and they automatically accepted him to Camden and Newark. He handled everything himself so its possible he could have hit a button he didnt realize. He was waitlisted for NB. I know for sure my daughter this year did not show interest and didnt recieve an email.

Edit - Actually I found his email from last year.
"Thank you for your patience while you remain on the Rutgers University–New Brunswick wait list. In the spirit of providing maximum consideration for admission to every applicant, we’re writing to inform you that your application is now under review for admission at Rutgers University–Camden and Rutgers University–Newark. "

I’m actually out of state, Massachusetts. And don’t worry about asking questions! It helps us all get a better idea of what’s going on
