Has anyone applied to NJGSS? The decisions come out on Monday!
I applied! Not feeling too good about this one but we’ll see, I guess
Same! Does anyone know anything about the selection process? Do they try to insure representation from all over NJ, or is it completely meritocratic?
@insertcleverpun from what I’ve heard, applicants from underrepresented areas of NJ have an advantage, so it’s definitely not completely based on merit
Do you guys know if they’re accepting less people this year? Last year they cut down the number of people b/c of budget cuts
@finallycured I have no idea. Hopefully they accept 80 like they did in years before last year. Will decisions come out in the morning tomorrow?
@ineedmoresleep I think so…they probably have their decisions made already. I’m so nervous!
@finallycured yeah the decisions are probably already final. Good luck!
Is there actually a waitlist or can you only be accepted or denied?
@ineedmoresleep Yes you can be waitlisted. Check the NJGSS Facebook page - they have a ton of info and are updating regularly (I would link the page but idk what CC’s rules about linking social media are).
Here’s a quote from their page: “The 2017 NJGSS will be announcing the selection committee’s decision (Accepted, Wait list, Denied) on Monday, April 3”
Arg i’m so nervous - good luck to everyone!
I’m so worried! The decisions are coming out tomorrow!!!
Lol I just hope I don’t get denied at this point. Good luck, everyone!
Good luck to you guys too!
Does anyone know what time results will be emailed?
Results were emailed at 1:30! I got accepted!
@insertcleverpun congrats!! I got waitlisted (I’m quite surprised I didn’t get denied, actually). Does anyone know approx how many people are on the waitlist?
@insertcleverpun I got accepted too! I’ll see you this summer! and @ineedmoresleep I don’t know that exact amount but I don’t think many people…I hope you get taken off the waitlist!
@finallycured thanks! I hope you guys have an amazing experience (which I know you will)
