If you have any other colleges in the NJ or bordering states with computer science i would like to hear them
To be honest your SAT scores are a bit too low based on the standards of Rutgers. Your GPA is fine based on the colleges average. I think you are set for Rowan and NJIT.
Rutgers, ehhh its a bit of a reach. Your a match or safety for the others.
Rowan’s campus is coming along nicely. The Rowan Boulevard project should really improve the campus. I believe it will be open in a few months.
would it be worth applying to like rutgers camden? i know they are easier then NB. As for NJIT and Rowan do they care about class rank a lot or more just GPA, i mean my class rank is 222 out of 450. that is where i can scared, i think that is low for NJIT and Rowan
can i get in with a class rank of 222 out of 450. i think that is my weak point.
@BockyRalboa123 you really think i have a good shot at rowan and NJIT! i feel like my Gpa is so low… what do you think the chances i have of getting in… 75%?
@MegaMetalHead what do you think my chances of getting into ether NJIT or Rowan since you said they are safe schools? 75% chance or do you think higher?
@BatesParent2019 but do you think i can get in
Probably around 75 percent for NJIT. Higher for Rowan.
@MegaMetalHead THANK YOU! this was the answer i was looking for. How much of a change do you think it would make if on the last SAT i am going to take (October) i got a 1150 on my Sat Cr + M.
I’m surprised everyone ranks NB so highly. I’m a recent grad from HS and got into NB with a 3.01 and 1370 SAT. Polk Sci was my intended Major. I got waitlisted but got in a week later. The rest of the schools will gladly take you.
I’d say you’re in at most/all of them, especially if you’re in state. Maybe do TCNJ for a reach/match for their CS program.
@codemachine by your name you might know the answer to this. Any other good schools in nj
@CollegeAvi so you think NB would be a good reach school?
Kean, Stockton (IS is offered through their business school), and Farleigh Dickinson. You might be viable for Villanova, Drexel, Temple, and La Salle all in the Greater Philadelphia Area.
@codemaster I was going to apply to Drexel for the hell of it just because the application is free. the tuition is so much money though .
Drexel has free applications?
@codemachine my bad I was thinking of somewhere else. I was looking on Njits college board page and they say 79 percent of students get scholarships and grants! Is that true?
