If she likes the Open House later this spring, I will convince her to do ED. I keep hearing that TCNJ has such a strict rubric for merit aid that it won’t hurt aid chances to apply early. I would be thrilled for her to have a “one and done” app.
I have heard nothing from them, nothing in mail or email or PAWS updates!! I applied in November!!
I applied in October for RD, called and switched to ED2 in early January then got a letter saying I had been deferred at the very end of January. I got an email a few days later recommending that I changed my major so I did, and I still have not heard back!
@xyb678 My son was accepted a couple weeks ago. Today he received a letter from the Financial Aid office asking him to submit proof he is registered with Selective Service. Once they receive that he can view his financial aid.
@acceptme2022 My son has a similar situation as you (comp sci - did not change major, in state well ranked public school, ACT 34 , 3.8 gpa) and hasn’t heard a peep! A record number of students applied to TCNJ from his h.s. this year. He applied RD because we wanted to compare offers from several schools. Wasnt expecting such a lengthy wait!
@xyb678 I spoke to the Financial Aid office and was told that the Financial aid letters should
go out at the end of the month
@RustyNail17 that is interesting, hope we hear about acceptance before the letters go out
In the same boat as the early decision deferred people. Do you think it’s a good sign we haven’t heard back or just waiting to be rejected. Honestly you would think they would give the early decision deferred group a break and let them know either way. I think it’s pretty sh$tty.
I think we might get waitlisted
Original response was flagged
Deferred to wait listed is awful. Just say no then, it would be easier to take.
has anyone else not heard back yet? sort of freaking out a bit
My son is still waiting as well and I was told that decisions will be mailed out before April 1st so, I’m assuming by that Friday March 30th since April 1st is Easter Sunday…Hopefully everyone will hear sooner though!
Another day, another empty mailbox
I’m feeling so bad for those of you having to wait so long. Hugs!
Is paws loading for anyone? it won’t let me on
@taylorfasano TCNJ’s server has been down all day. They tweeted about it.
My DD (class of 2019) applied ED …she got some merit $ …TCNJ was affordable even if she didn’t and she kept comparing all the other schools to TCNJ so I said why not apply ED? I think there is a slightly better acceptance rate for ED.
Hi, congrats! If you don’t mind me asking, what were her stats and how much in aid?
It seems like a lot of people have heard from TCNJ. My son is still waiting- nothing via email or snailmail. He’s heard from all the other colleges he’s applied to. Does this mean he didn’t get in, or is it possible his application is still being processed? His stats are pretty good- 1430 SAT, 32 ACT, 3.8 GPA with Honors and 6 AP’s. TIA
