My daughter applied to a few other schools using Coalition. For two of the schools we received notice that transcripts & LOR from her HS were not delivered even though Naviance showed they had been. I suspect the guidance office sent them to Common App in error. After we questioned the guidance office and they sent the docs again, both schools acknowledged receipt within 24 hours.
The Rutgers checklist seems to be a lag in recognizing the docs. I don’t believe all the boxes were checked for my daughter until after she was accepted.
What’s the odds of a drop this week?
And do we think that drop will include deferred EA applicants who updated their SRARs?

Million dollar question
I had my daughter update hers yesterday am after grades were posted. The Rutgers site did not immediately reflect it had been completed but the check mark is there today.
It is not clear if this was an automated acknowledgment that took 24 hours or if, by chance, was submitted 24 hours before someone manually checked hers and others in.
It’s not checked off on my daughter’s portal, but when she goes into the SRAR site, it says the update was sent to Rutgers on 2/8.

is it going to be weekly drops in Feb too ?
They do multiple drops in Feb - no particular pattern.
You just have to check your portal periodically. Unfortunately Rutgers (like many large state schools) isn’t great with communications.
Periodically…like 20 times a day? Asking for a friend.

I’m so sick of this I would welcome a rejection at this point just to move on.
Tough call 
maybe once every 2 - 3 days?
Or you can simply wait to receive an email asking you to check your portal.
2 years ago when my daughter applied. They only released on Thursday night. Maybe between 9-11pm It would be roughly twice a month. So I would expect to see something tonight.

FYI, the SRAR update box is now checked off in my daughter’s portal. It wasn’t earlier today. I wonder if that means we’ll get a decision tonight.

I don’t know what has more frustrating, waiting for acceptances or getting accepted and having to wait two months for financial aid to see if it’s realistic.

No update last night.

Rutgers usually sends decisions on Thursdays it feels like.
Looking at the waves:
Nov 18th (Thursday) - Newark 1st wave
Dec 16th (Thursday) - New Brunswick 1st wave
Jan 20th (Thursday) - New Brunswick 2nd wave
Jan 27th (Thursday) - New Brunswick 3rd wave
My S22 heard on 1/13 which was a Thursday.
Any news on if tomorrow they are dropping more?
