Rutgers NB and Newark Nursing Wait List?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Rutgers University

So I applied to all three nursing schools in Rutgers. I got accepted to Camden but wait listed in Newark and NB. What are the chances of being accepted? I know the nursing program is extremely hard to get in too. Is it true there is only 30 spots in each school??

Stats/info:
GPA: 3.44
SAT new: 1320 (forgot exact scores bit around 670 math 620 eng) + essay 5
Volunteering focused in my public library which involved children
Did a lot of clubs and had leadership positions each year
My high school is a highly competitive school (blue ribbon) and is nearby RU nb.(Apparently it’s a known school? Idk)
I’m taking anatomy and physiology 1 and 2 in high school with college credits- and calc honors with college credits.

Thanks :smiley:

The class of 2019 had only like 70ish spots and 3000 applicants. And on the website it said for 2016 there were only about 58 spots with a similar applicant pool.

New Brunswick has about 60-70 spots and Newark has about the same or less. And camden is a bit different, so it is difficult for me to say as a new brunswick student. But let’s say in total of all 3 nursing schools, there are about 200 students per class. And with a large growing applicant pool of 3000, 4000, and maybe even 5000, it is really competitive.

Perhaps your GPA is what hurt you the most. NB-Nursing looks for a 3.8 GPA range, which is what I have, and I got accepted. You have a slight chance, good luck! :-c
