It really makes no sense why nothing has been released

222

Anyone believe results can release tomorrow though? Or does Rutgers strictly release results on Thursdays only?

223

Who knows? Obviously we can’t go by the process followed in previous years when they started releasing decisions on Thursdays starting early December. We are already 6 weeks beyond last years release schedule.

At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if they wait until the last week of January to do a massive release. Maybe they decided to keep up with the Joneses and do the release with all the fanfare, blog posts, stats, etc. and haven’t announced it publicly.

So you think they have they results and are just not releasing them?

225

I suspect as much. They’ve had a fixed applicant pool for 2 1/2 months now and it is my understanding that some, if not all, of the schools make their own decisions. I find it unfathomable that these schools have not made decisions yet, especially the smaller programs that get less applicants.

Guess we will have to wait and see.

I understand the frustration. We experienced that too (with a couple of other schools, not Rutgers) the year my daughter applied.
However, it’s the norm, not the exception for schools to not send periodic updates about release dates.

Schools that have a single release date typically announce the date only a few days ahead (and some on the day of) via email/social media post. Schools that have rolling admissions typically do not announce a decision date in advance.
Perhaps Rutgers is moving from rolling admissions to a single announcement this year.

(Although, some students up thread claim to have received their decision already. Maybe a few did get notified and the rest will follow later).

No decision here yet. Did they indicate if they would be doing rolling releases or one large single release?

231

Not sure going to ask tomorrow do you know if they are open? I remember them saying that we could receive them from now until the 31st tho but I’ll ask again tomorrow if it’s rolling or all at once if they are open

From what I was told classes resume from winter break on 1/17. Not sure if that means admissions staff is out or not.

233

Any updates for anybody today?
