TCNJ Early Decision 2021

I’ve used college confidential to basically stress over colleges since last year, and I couldn’t find the one I wanted when I started applying! So I made this one for other people like me applying early decision to TCNJ so we can can talk to eachother about our chances, questions and all that fun stuff

@mellsie2468: My daughter applied ED to TCNJ last fall. She’s now a freshman and LOVES it! She even got a merit scholarship, which is something I really questioned at the time because why would a college give merit aid to a student who’s already committing to attend? TCNJ assured me that they distribute merit aid regardless of application type. Anyway, she took the ED plunge and TCNJ came through with a scholarship. Needless to say we are both very pleased!

Thought I would share in case you had the same question. Good luck!

Thank you!

My DD also applied ED and is now a sophomore. She kept comparing all of the other schools to TCNJ and I said if you like it best, why not just apply ED? It is a great value. She also got a small merit scholarship.

@ekdad212 What were her scores? What major? And how much merit money received?

Could you guys check this thread out?? – http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1922150-what-are-my-chances-the-college-of-new-jersey-tcnj.html#latest

@mattlax27 : just getting back to this thread now, sorry. My daughter got a 1390/1600 on her SATs (single sitting) and a GPA around 98 or so (can’t remember exactly) that put her in the top 20 of her class of 300. She is majoring in Mathematics-Secondary Education.

I saw on the other thread that you are going to be applying ED. If you love TCNJ and want to enter a competitive major, I think that’s the way to go. Good luck!

Did anyone hear back yet?

Nope, not yet :frowning: have you?

Nope! The twitter page replied to a girl a week or so ago and said we would hear back BEFORE December 1st. Which would basically have to be today. Me and my two friends who also applied ED are impatiently waiting

Omg yes I know I saw that!!! I was so mad when my mail came and it didn’t come D: I need to know so bad hahaha

Today was the deadline and I didn’t get anything

I called in and they said they only sent them in the mail today, meaning that most of us will not get them until monday :confused: I’m very anxious!

That is so scary. Does anyone know if the acceptance letters come first or like acceptance and rejection letters come at the same time

The site said log into Paws account for acceptances. Sure it is going to b mailed?

Hi guys I’m new to this. I’ve been freaking out all day thinking I’d find out. I’m so upset, I’ve been refreshing Paws all day

I’ve been freaking out all day too, thinking they would email me…anyone heard anything?

Nope:( I feel like a lot of ppl are going to call tomorrow and complain because everyone thought today was the day they’d find out for sure.

My friend called today and they said it was mailed out today and nothing will be posted online

Hey I’m also waiting for my letter and thought I was going to find out today too. I was so sad when I called and they said they were only mailed out today. I was refreshing the page all morning for nothing hehe :frowning:
