Rutgers University New Brunswick Early Action for Fall 2024

So your son finally accepted to NB or not ?

No ultimately rejected which we expected. He only had a 86/100 GPA

So if my child got accepted to Newark and doesn’t esnt to go there should she decline offer or just wait??? New mom of senior

It doesnt matter. It has zero effect on admission to NB.

I’m full on stressing. I got the email but on common app it says “no” to consideration for other rutgers schools.

Did you apply to Newark or Camden? It could be because u didn’t apply there

nah i didnt apply

But did they add other campus applications when you check my applications?

No only the ones I applied too.

Are only instate students getting this email with other options? If out of state, did you mark yes, I would consider other campuses? We are OOS only NB application and did not get this email.

I am instate so maybe that’s why. I hope this email isn’t some sort of “brace yourself for a rejection”.

I’m instate and didn’t receive anything, but my major is only available at NB

We are OOS and my daughter got the email. She also said she was open to all 3 campuses.

OOS parents - have you visited/learned about the 3 campuses? They’re all very different.

New Brunswick (rated #40 by USNWR) is the flagship. The others are not.

My son will go to one of the campuses of course we are praying for New Brunswick. Does anyone have any thoughts on Newark and Camden and which would be better for the “college experience”? Staying in dorms, etc. I have heard Camden has a lot of commuter students. appreciate any thoughts!

My son received the email yesterday and today his portal shows NB as “waitlist”. He in in-state with decent stats and had applied to RBS. He was admitted to Newark and Camden, but NB is his first preference. This is very disappointing for in-state students.

No
