Did you get in with those stats?</p>

<p>Yepp. Division of Undergrad Studies though cuz im short pre calc so couldnt get into the program I wanted</p>

<p>It was probably because of your ethnicity to be honest. With those grades, if you were white or asian(specifically from korea, japan, china, or singapore) you would’ve been rejected hands down.</p>

<p>Yeah I know lol only reason I applied was because of that. If the school was exactly the same but in jersey I probably wouldn’t get in.</p>

<p>I still haven’t gotten notification of acceptance yet. Do they accept in descending order of grades/ranking/sat score???!?! An acquaintance with worse GPA, ranking, and SAT score got accepted already, but mine is still in process. I also applied a day earlier than she. I don’t understand.</p>

<p>I just got into Rutgers Newark SAS today with a 1630 SAT and 3.00 GPA. Still waiting for NB Engineering…</p>

<p>Yeah I don’t know why I’m still waiting then… 3.2GPA and 1810SAT…</p>

<p>I hope I get in, is anyone here applying as a transfer student from a community college? If so, what are your stats?</p>

<p>I’m a transfer student from a community college too. I applied to the school of engineering and the sas as a second choice. </p>

<p>I am instate, NJSTARS, PTK, and have a 3.8 GPA in engineering. </p>

<p>I’m really hoping I get in…</p>

<p>Would it help if I was Hawaiian/Mexican. It’s an awkward mix but does that and being an OOS student help with the college application process?</p>

<p>Anyone hear anything recently…?</p>

<p>hey im not a regular here, but I’ve been accepted to nursing and SAS :)</p>

<p>oh and stats…
SAT: 1960/2400
GPA: 97.8633
Class rank: 4/93</p>

<p>you in yet emerica?</p>

<p>@cometstarg
Nope :(</p>

<p>Hey all, I applied about 2 days before the deadline. I applied as a transfer student to Newark Business School, New Brunswick SAS, and Camden Business.</p>

<p>I heard back last week for Newark only as Accepted. Still waiting on the other two.</p>

<p>I applied to business, sas, and engineer…i got into sas and engineer so far…i was wondering whats a better school engineer or sas</p>

<p>@RUknights
DEFINITELY engineering school!</p>

<p>I’m still in process for all 3 schools (business, engineering, sas) I dunno why I haven’t heard ANYTHING yet… it’s been 4 months!</p>

<p>^ and business is better than engineer right?</p>
