Hi Countthestars!

I called the office last Tuesday. I'm still on the waitlist and was told that I'm in the top 30 (TOP 30...I don't know if I should be happy or scared to death...Makes me wonder, how long is the waitlist, really? I asked for the total # of people on the waitlist, but I got a very vague answer)...

At this point, I'm really sad/depressed/discouraged/ready to give up on the guy known as "God"...I've prayed, I've fasted, meditated. etc. What gives?

I don't want to be anywhere else, but UMDNJ. 🙁


Who and what number did you call? I tried e-mailling several times and never got a response.
 
Has anyone gotten in state tuition yet if they applied as OOS? I've heard the policy is changing, and I turned in my paperwork a couple of weeks ago, but I have not heard yet. Anyone change their residency successfully yet this year?
 
Hey everyone! I've called and e-mailed the office. I'm being told that there's no movement....

Back's against the wall...Don't know what to do

when I interviewed in feb, I was told by insiders that class was 90% full. Plus, they are strict about their 108 student size quota. Good luck.

so at least ppl r getting off right? did the admissions office tell u this?

Nope! I called about an hour ago and was told that only 2 people have gotten off the alternate list in the past 3 (THREE) weeks.

Totally sucks!

I'm never praying again, since clearly PRAYER DOESN'T work...
