For accepted students: have you received confirmation that they received your letter? I sent mine on the 13th and they havent acknowledged my letter

I haven't received confirmation either (sent in around the same time as you). I did email Ms. Kramer and she told me "not to worry" and that they will acknowledge it. Still worried.
Right?? isnt this kind of important? I called her twice and she said they're "very backed up". Oh well, at least we will have the head of admissions to vouch for our interest.
Don't worry at all. If you were accepted and you sent your letter in, you are fine. They are not going to all of a sudden pull your acceptance (even if they never get your letter). They would reach out to you first... you should get emails/notifications about Accepted Students Day on January 17th if you haven't already.
Withdrew - good luck to the rest of you, if there are still interviews and/or acceptances ahead!
When were you complete?
End of September
Im in the same boat. I even go to Rutgers and did research at RWJ. A Prof wrote me a letter of rec. I am losing hope quickly I really assumed I wouldve heard back by now. Complete mid september. 34/3.8/IS
I don't know what to think anymore. IS school, 3.6/35 plus excellent research, ECs, and strong letters. What else do you need to do these days?

I know it might be difficult, but try to stay optimistic. Many students are invited for interviews and accepted after January 1st. There are still nearly 1/2 dozen interview dates with 40+ students at each day... unlike NJMS, the incoming class of 2018 is not completed.

+1 on the not hearing a peep...sigh, I guess I will keep waiting!
I emailed my stuff in and received a confirmation like on dec 29th too! Are you attending all the events on the 17th or just the banquet?
Woohoo! But hmm what specific events? I think I am going early to talk to the financial counselor and get the tour. What about you/are your parents going?
pretty bummed i won't be able to attend the events on jan 17th, but if i could i would for sure do the happy hour as well.
Same I'm going for the financial aid, tour, banquet, and happy hour. Just not sure if I should bring my parents or not lol
Are u bringing urs?
they really want to go but I don't want to look like a weenie if no one else is bringing their parents haha
Haha I had the same concern... If it helps, I think at least one of mine is coming with me. Although I'm really hoping I'm not alone lol
GOOD we're in this together haha
Hi everyone. i got accepted to rwj few weeks ago and i am going to attend robert wood starting this year fall. has any one started filling the fafsa yet? i don't know what is the school code for RWJ.
most likely will meet everyone on the jan17 during winter reception.
most likely will meet everyone on the jan17 during winter reception.
well of course i did. but in fafsa, they are asking for Rutgers code. Since RWJ is integrated in it, it probably is 002629 or may be it is different.
Congrats! When were you complete? IS or OOS?
thanks, OOS and i was complete late October i believe. honestly i was surprised I got an II since they interview so little OOS, only 45 last yr according to MSAR

Anybody know how long this school interviews till? Been complete since september and no word yet. Same with njms lol
They said this year they were considering international students, anyone happen to hear of any that got II this cycle?
Second link down from the google search http://rbhs.rutgers.edu/studentfinancialaid/news/New FAFSA Codes.html
it's the same for every school, regardless of the Rutgers-UMDNJ merger.
For those wondering about whether to bring parents or not on the 17th, you can go either way and it's perfectly fine. Mine came last year and then left when it was happy hour - it should be a fun exciting day for everyone attending. Oh and the Class of '16 had an anomaly w. female/male ratio - '17 is more evenly balanced at around 55/45 F:M.
is that the only event for accepted students? they have another later in the cycle?
There will be another reception in April, I think.
+1 haven't heard from either NJ school 🙁
Same here- I've been complete since early August.

I'm not really sure but if u want to attend the appointment its from 1 - 5. and then happy hour
Question: How dressy are you guys getting for this/are making ur parents get dressed up.
Part of me wants to whip out the ol' interview suit but another part just wants to wear a nice business casual dress. (but i don't want to freeze either if the tour is outdoors and what not.)
the email says business casual so I'll just go that route. I hope to never wear that interview suit again (or at least not for a while, I look like a lady FBI agent)
I think I'm just getting super excited/antsy. Plus my dad wants to whip out his best suit and I'm like -_-" I swear he's more excited than I am! 🙂

interviewed 12/13, have not heard back yet.
Also interviewed 12/13 and haven't heard anything yet
Is there a FB class of 2018 page yet?
Sent in a letter of interest/update yesterday at around 10PM to Dr. Terregino. Received an email from her this morning saying she received it and would pass it on. Later that day I get an email from Mrs. Kramer saying that I will be receiving an interview invite and I just need to wait for interview spots to become available. Not sure how a spot would become available (I guess if someone gave up their date that would be one way) but I am glad to see that my letter of interest (pre-II) seems to have worked!
