Guys my account still says “In Process” it’s been 17 days now. I applied for Rutgers SAS. It’s almost April, does that mean I should probably expect a rejection? Also, I got a new scholarship and internship position etc. Should I email admissions?
You applied 17 days ago. Now imagine how I feel having applied mid January ×_x
@cucumberz7 are u a transfer ??
@hamstargaming No I’m an undergrad. They didn’t receive my 2015 tax returns although I had sent them. They gave me a deadline to resend them (which I did) Idk if it always takes this long but I got into Rutgers N a week earlier than when the decisions came out (feb 28)…
@Tranferguy2018 Damn, that sucks… I wonder if the process is always this long. This school is literally my only option and the only school I want to go to.
Idk bro @cucumberz7. We both are transfers and still haven’t received our decisions. Most of the people have already gotten it so we are just wondering around here because we are so nervous lol
The thing is that Rutgers seed applications in waves meaning randomly, that’s what one of the staff members told me. This is completely wrong man. People who apply early should be given consideration first. Because I know a guy who applied a month after the deadline and still got accepted
Yeah my friend is a transfer, and he got in like a few weeks ago. But I mean I got into Newark+EOF program real quick so i don’t know what the hold up is. But I think they’re taking longer for me cause of the EOF program for SAS but I’m not sure. And I agree, it’s not fair for those who applied earlier to wait this long.
@hamstargaming but I feel you man, the wait is killing me too :L
My hypothesis is that we’re on the edge and the fact that they’re accepting students a month after applications were due means they need more strong applicants. Towards the 15th they’ll decide if there’s space is my guess.
maybe @Tranferguy2018. But i still dont get it man. There were like 2 guys on the other thread and they said they had a 3.0, 2.9 gpa and got into SAS. What is your gpa btw?
@hamstargaming @Tranferguy2018 I got my acceptance around 3 pm (yesterday) I emailed them about becoming a finalist for a scholarship and a new internship a few days prior. They replied to that email saying to keep my eyes open for a decision. I checked my status today, I got admitted to both of the other schools!! Crossing my fingers for you guys!
@cucumberz7 was it te admissions@rutgers email?
@hamstargaming No. It was admissions@ugadm.rutgers.edu
@cucumberz7 what were your stats?
@hamstargaming
I had a 3.67 uw GPA, scored a 1380 on the SATs, varsity tennis, prez/vp of 3 school clubs, 2 internships, my bro also goes to rutgers, and I’m in-state.
@cucumberz7 you had really good stats. Then why did it take so long for Rutgers to send you a decision ? Also did you contact them before too ? Because the decision for most regular applicants came out February 28.
Thanks man. I forgot to send my 2015 tax returns,and I got notified of it being missing on February 28. I applied at the last second too, I think it had to do with the EOF program.
I emailed them the copy of my fam’s 2015 tax returns nothing after that. Until I followed up with my internship and scholarship acceptance.
