Rutgers Early Action for Fall 2022 Admission

NJ Father, thank you for your insight. We are in many threads together.

You commented before about Delaware not being on par with Rutgers. We are looking at computer engineering and UD’s program seems to rated higher than RU’s. Any insight you can share? Thanks.

I believe the comment you are referring to is specific to student profile- not rankings (USNWR has Rutgers Engineering at 45 & UD at 56. general engineering- not specific to Comp ) You can see the profile for Rutgers at this link: https://admissions.rutgers.edu/sites/default/files/2021-09/2021%20Admissions%20Profile.pdf
The top quartile for engineering starts at 35 ACT, whereas UD does not break out by schools (as far as I know), however, a student with a 30 ACT falls within UD top quartile, Rutgers lowest. The other factor that may be important in an evolving field is the amount of research. Pitt, PSU & Rutgers are all members of AAU- UD is not

Chemistry major in-state still waiting…very frustrating. I reached out to admissions asking if there was something else that I needed to do (I applied on Oct. 31) and she said that admissions are being released through Jan. 31. I just think it’s a little ridiculous that some people I know that applied a month or so ago already heard back. I keep trying to tell myself that perhaps it’s by major or program, but the lady on the phone didn’t even seem to know…

My status has been " Submitted App" for two months while have seen some people whose status says “In Process”, so I am a little confused about what the status should be for someone who completed the application.

On the left side of the screen, below “Application Submitted” do you see “Under Review”? And does it have a check-mark? If not, you should probably call the admissions office as there may be items missing.

My son was accepted last week. Very exciting. Will he receive a paper package in the mail? Is there an open house for admitted students?

My daughter applied to three schools, heard from two some time ago- still waiting on the third.
Status for Pharmacy is “submitted app”. Therefore, because it is a shared application I don’t have any concerns

Yes to both. April 9 is admitted student open house

Was there a new wave today?

I don’t believe so. Two of my daughter’s schools are still listed as “Submitted App”. I think the next (last?) drop will be at the end of the month.

My daughter said some people in her chat were saying they were accepted last night. Meanwhile we are still waiting, only applied in October…

AE1: my son received a packed in the mail a couple weeks after being accepted.

The visitor center is closed right now due to Covid. Their site says that they will announce the spring visitor schedule on Feb. 1.

Thanks, good info

check the small lower pocket on the right cover for the admitted student open house card (below the one containing the R window sticker)

Still haven’t heard back yet for RBS, still says “submitted app” but I got into SAS around a month ago… praying it’s not a bad sign? Anyone know people in the past years who got accepted more towards Jan 31st? I submitted app in October, 4.2 GPA and 1270 SAT (kinda regret sending that score in at this point)

My daughter applied in October, was accepted to SAS in mid December and just accepted to RBS last week. You should be finding out soon. Good luck!
