Hey guys, I didn’t see a thread like this on this forum so I figured I’d start my own. I applied to TCNJ on October 14 and am really hoping to get in, it’s not my top choice but definitely one of the schools I’m excited about going to. A lot of my friends are current students and loving it.
So good luck everybody and share in here what you’re thinking or if/when you get admitted!!
Im also applying regular decision to TCNJ although I havent submitted my application yet! I visited the campus two years ago and liked it. What major are you thinking of?
My D also applied RD, but application was submitted in early Nov. I wonder if she would be sent into ED2. Good luck to you.
Momsteph, your daughter would not be sent into EDII unless you selected to do so and electronically signed the binding agreement. Assuming you did not, your D applied RD. I was accepted to TCNJ EDI last month! Class of 2020! Good luck everyone!!!
Thank you so much smileyface, and congratulations to u, good luck .
Do your PAWS accounts say anything under advising tools? Mine says your evaluator information will be available shortly and contact your department chair to be assigned an advisor. It didn’t use to say that, but no word on acceptance yet either. And don’t stress if you don’t have that - this is for a non-matriculated student application, not full admission. Just wondering if this is typical.
I got accepted today for RD! Logged onto my Paws account and clicked “Accept/Decline Admission” or something close to that and there was an option for me to actually accept/decline admission and a little note saying how pleased they were to admit me. TCNJ is one of my top choices so I’m so excited! Good luck to everyone!
JustaGemini - just want to confirm that this is real, seems way early for TCNJ based on threads from previous years. The school seems to have a pattern of notifying most regular decision candidates the third week of June.
I meant third week of February
Did any of you have information about your advisor and your evaluator under advising tools before you were accepted?
Yeah that’s surprising @JustaGemini, congrats though. Could you tell us when you applied?
Congrats! Wondering if it was a glitch that it showed and justagemini happened to look just at the right time.
@ProudDad1357 @c777123 @jnkam24 Thank you! It wasn’t a glitch. I received my acceptance letter in the mail later that day actually! It came with the acceptance letter and scholarship information. I applied on November 4th.
@JustaGemini hmmmm and that was regular decision, not ED?
@jnkam24 yes! regular decision.
@JustaGemini - Congrats! Do you mind posting your stats?

Accepted RD as well! Congrats to everyone else as well! TCNJ is a highly possible school for me, so does anyone know how to roommate situation works? Are they assigned to us or are we allowed to pick?
@bengalcat8 If you don’t mind me asking, when did you apply? And were your stats very good? I still haven’t gotten a PAWS account from them
@annoyingorange I can’t really remember, but I think I applied sometime in December. My stats were okay: top 8% of my class, 2100 SAT (680 M and 690 R), took about 8 AP classes in high school.
I didn’t get my PAWS account information from them by email or anything (like all the other colleges do). I got it in the mail about a day before I got my acceptance letter. Oh and I’m also OOS. Good luck!
