Hey I’m Rutgers Class of 2021 (EMSOP '23)
My stats were:

ACT: 34/36
GPA: 3.9 UW (4.3 W)
Math II-740, Chem-730
5’s on 3 AP Exams, 4’s on 5 AP Exams

Initially I received no scholarship, and after appealing with other scholarship offers ($22.5k from USciences, $15k from UPitt, $12k from SUNY Buffalo) Rutgers awarded me $3.5k.

Even though scholarships are merit based, Rutgers still requires you to submit a FAFSA report, and heavily awards scholarships to students that require funds. The scholarship selection process is not need-blind.
