Rutgers at this point does not have a DeanNov 02 2003Political Science
Rutgers at this point does not have a Dean of Admissions. What this means, basically, is if you meet certain criteria, allowing for applicant pool sizes, you get in. There are no recommendations, no essays, no extra points for being Prom Queen or President of the Chess Club. This is what one calls an "Office of Enrollment Management"--everything is done by computer. I wouldn't be surprised if a human being didn't see anything other than entering in your grades and then putting the print outs into the neat folder Rutgers sends you. The folder is one of the highlights of the whole application process at Rutgers. You only get one if you're accepted of course, and it's a fairly nice black matte finish stock folder with the Seal of the University set into it. Regardless, admission to Rutgers is based on two things (more or less): SAT scores, and GPA. Unless you can play football and then neither of those two things matter.
