Hi everyone, I applied to Rutgers and I'm anxiously waiting for their decision. How long does it usually take for them to make a decision? And do they notify you through email or another method? Any experiences or insights would be great, thanks!
Hey! The waiting process can indeed be nerve-racking. Typically, for Rutgers, decisions start rolling out in December for Early Action applicants and continue through April for Regular Decision. If you applied for one of their priority deadlines, you may receive your decision earlier.
Rutgers usually notifies applicants both by mail and via your Rutgers status portal. You'll want to keep an eye on your email inbox and spam folder for any notification regarding updates to your application status. The email will prompt you to check the portal for the actual decision.
Remember that different applicants might receive their decisions on different dates. So don't panic if you see others posting about their decisions and you haven't heard back yet. It's normal for decisions to roll out over several weeks.
I hope that clarifies things a bit! Best of luck with your application!
