There are a lot of unsubstantiated rumors out there about UMDNJ-SOM.
There was a weird thing that went on with the former Dean, but he isn't there any more.

UMDNJ is a great DO school. The staff goes out of it's way to support students in whatever way they need and they seem to have a personal interest in everyone succeeding. There is no reason to perpetuate rumors - students there do very well and match into great residency programs from the research I've done on it.

Yeah, UMDNJ is not going to graduate any more students, MD or DO, and they are also firing all the staff residents and physicians, closing the doors of the largest health care system in the USA and leaving most of NJ to home remedies and nature's course.
