TCNJ second review e-mail

<p>E-mail:
Thank you for applying to The College of New Jersey. All of your application materials have been received, and your application has gone through its initial review by our admissions committee. After evaluating your academic record, standardized test scores, extracurricular involvement, recommendations, and essay, we have moved your application forward for a second review.</p>

<p>The Office of Admissions generally receives approximately 10,000 applications each year, and it is not uncommon for us to conduct a second (or even third) review before making a final decision on a student's application. This is done in the best interest of the applicant, allowing us to solicit input from other members of our college community while carefully re-evaluating your credentials. This second review process is not the equivalent of a "waitling list"; please rest assured that you will receive your formal, final application decision by April 1st, if not sooner.</p>

<p>The Star-Ledger had an article recently that quoted Lisa Angeloni as saying that TCNJ had filled all of its biology major spots with ED applicants. Also, the article states that ED applicants are up 30%.</p>
