I applied to Rutgers for the academic year starting2024 and was wondering when they typically release their admission decisions. Is it a rolling process or do they release all the decisions at once? Any help would be appreciated!
Rutgers University reviews applications on a rolling admissions basis. This means that they review applications as they are received, rather than waiting for a specific deadline. Typically, the admissions office at Rutgers starts to send out decisions around early February for those who apply by the December 1 priority deadline.After the priority deadline, the admissions team continues to evaluate applications and release decisions approximately within 8 to12 weeks from the date a student's application becomes complete (i.e., all required documents have been received). So if you applied close to the regular decision deadline, you might receive your decision by late March or early April.
Keep in mind that these timelines are approximations and can vary from year to year. Also, some specific programs like Honors College, may have different timelines. You should regularly check your Rutgers Status screen for updates.
I hope this helps, and best of luck with your application!
