I got notified that I got into all of my schools and I got a packet in the mail but it didn’t have anything about scholarships, financial aid, or the honors college. Does that mean I didn’t get into HC and i didn’t get any scholarships? Or will they come later?
Honors/Scholarship info is released late Jan/early Feb.
They haven’t come out yet. I think they come out sometime in February.
Oh okay, thanks!
what about financial aid? I submitted my fafsa on december 1st.
Same time frame.
My friend spoke to an admissions counselor, who said that honors college decisions will be coming out on the 20th (might have said 29th though, apparently he spoke very quietly) so prepare for the 20th, if nothing, then the 29th.
@angstyforadmission1 Oh okay thank you! So those will be coming through the mail, right? Or will they be online?
@stressedgirl21 I don’t know how they will be sending it out sorry!
My son was accepted into Rutgers Honors College last year. The decision came out sometime in late January, I think around the 23rd or so. He first saw notification online along with scholarship offer which was $13 k per year. He decided to go elsewhere, but Rutgers is a great choice. Sone others he knows were offered lower scholarship amount. Good luck.
Has anybody received anything from the honors college?
Did Rutgers call any of you? My son got a phone call asking if he had any questions.
I had a phone call from New Brunswick today so maybe it was from them. Was it anything specific or just a general call? @drferrante
No I didnt. Was it concerning the HC?
My son said. They congratulated him on his admission to RU and asked if he had any questions. He was so shocked by the call. No mention of honors college- I just never heard of Rutgers calling. I was curious.
@drferrante was your son already aware of his admission, or did he find out through said phone call yesterday?
He was aware he was admitted to Rutgers in December. No word, of course, on Honors College. I just didn’t know of anyone else getting a phone call.
Do you guys think the HC notification will be at different times depending on if applied early action or regular? Because I applied regular so technically didn’t even have to hear back yet out admission, not until February 29. But I did find out, in December actually. So would I have to wait until after february, since everyone hasn’t been admitted yet and therefore they can’t really tell who top percent is?
Interesting, my daughter has not received any phone calls from Rutgers. She is also awaiting honors college and merit although I’m not sure what to expect. Her stats are good but possibly not high enough for HC. She is in state, 34 ACT, 4.55 wtd GPA, 4.0 uw gpa, top 3% of her class. I think it’s unlikely for her but still anxiously waiting to see what they offer.
@stressedgirl21 You’re only considered for the Honors College if you apply before a certain date; I believe this date was December 1, but I could but wrong about that.
