<p>I would venture to guess there are probably a number of 890 SAT non-atheletes at Rutgers. The school average is around 1090 so you can probably expect to find as many 890’s as 1390’s there and the 1390 could probably have a C average and no EC’s.</p>
<p>Rutger’s and New Jersey are both having financial woes. High taxes and a fleeing middle class aren’t helping and the state legislature has been cutting appropriations for Rutgers. </p>
<p>Somebody mentioned the football program is losing money but that probably is not the case. Football is usually the engine that finances the other sports at a school and given Rutgers’ attendence the last two years and their membership in a strong conference with lots of TV revenue in both basketball and football I would have to think football is doing quite well. Title IX on the other hand has proven to be a killer for men’s olympic sports at colleges and universities. The need to offset the 85 football full scholarships with womens sports and scholarships has led to the drastic reduction of non-revenue men’s sports and their replacement with women’s bowling and rowing scholarships.</p>
