Rutgers University New Brunswick Early Action for Fall 2024

I forgot about Hamilton and Trenton. Those are closer than Princeton

The closest train stations to TCNJ are Trenton for NJ Transit, Amtrak, and SEPTA, and West Trenton (Ewing) for SEPTA only. Trenton is about four or so miles away from campus. It’s a major hub for NJT and Amtrak—every NE Corridor train stops at Trenton. SEPTA is a commuter line to center city Philadelphia. The West Trenton station is closer (two or three miles?) from campus in Ewing and is also a SEPTA commuter line into CC Philadelphia.

Hamilton’s a great option, too. I use Hamilton to commute to NYC and there’s lots of easy parking.

Hi,
Is this for Rutgers Camden or TCNJ? Thanks

Rutgers has extended decision date to Jun 1st due to FAFSA chaos so the timing to process waitlist will most likely be late in summer. Rutgers has encouraged applicants to accept what you have first. Your student is also admitted to Stony Brook and TCNJ. If you haven’t done visiting, you can schedule admitted student day to visit. SB has days on 3/23 and 4/6. I believe TCNJ is on 4/6 and Rutgers NB on 4/13.

TCNJ. But there is a direct NJT light rail line (Riverline) from the Trenton station to Rutgers Camden. It stops on the RU Camden campus.

I’m wondering about the RU Camden HC, too. My D was accepted, but has not received any information on merit aid. She was also accepted to Rutgers NB, but I don’t expect any merit from them. It’s looking like she will attend TCNJ, where she received a very small merit package.

My daughter just received the Presidential Scholarship. Does anyone know if its for every year? Or is it just for the first year?

What do the ā€œ/ā€ numbers represent?

It’s the number of people who got in/number of people who applied

Anyone know where I can find the outcome/destination reports for the school? I found a general one, but I was hoping to access a more detailed report.

No. She had given her fall semester grades before she was placed on the waitlist.

Has anybody got off waitlist?

Hi - question about degree - 1) Does Rutgers Camden / Newark say only Rutgers on the Diploma (Degree) or do they specify the Campus? And 2) which is better - Rutgers Camden Honors or Newark - non-honors for SAS major - if waitlisted at NB?
3) what is the earliest one can transfer to RU NB from Either of the other Campuses? Thanks

No did you?

My daughter graduated from New Brunswick, her diploma says Rutgers Newark/New Brunswick business school. It’s in a file in my house, she’s never even seen it, I don’t think it matters, it will be in the resume.

Not yet

No. Still waiting. Is everyone committing somewhere else but still holding out to hear good news on or before August 1?

Hi, I have a question about Placement test. My son has SAT English score qualified for the English test exemption. How to get the exemption? Should we email Rutgers? The official SAT report was sent to Rutgers last year. Thanks in advance

Hi - which is better - Stony Brook or Rutgers (in state) for Bio major… Thanks
