I'm from NY and I can drive there on interview day if I wake up really early. Do you guys think I should drive there the day of or get a place to stay the night?
No, I HIGHLY recommend not driving the morning of. The traffic in NY can be a nightmare and I'm assuming you've never been to rutgers, so finding parking/where to go may take more time than you think. The last thing you want to do is stress out about finding where to go instead of concentrating and preparing for the interview. Drive the night/day before and stay at a hotel and relax. Also, you'll get more sleep and you'll probably perform better during your interview.I'm from NY and I can drive there on interview day if I wake up really early.

They have 15 or so Friday's set aside for interviews. Maybe you can send them a list of days your available and see what they can do.Does anyone know how strict they are on rescheduling an interview..? I already have an interview scheduled for that day, and ive paid for my flights/hotels
If you mean NYC, you can hop on NJTransit and take a ride to Newark. The school has a free shuttle service to and from the train station (about 7-10 minutes away) and there's always Uber. No need to drive.I'm from NY and I can drive there on interview day if I wake up really early. Do you guys think I should drive there the day of or get a place to stay the night?
Yeah....I just asked if there were any future dates available that I could interview on. I don't want to leave the impression that they're accommodating my scheduleThey have 15 or so Friday's set aside for interviews. Maybe you can send them a list of days your available and see what they can do.
Bro, with your interview creds so far, it sounds like they're all going to have to fight for youYeah....I just asked if there were any future dates available that I could interview on. I don't want to leave the impression that they're accommodating my schedule
Are we paying the supp fee only after they contact us?

Hey guys, thinking of adding Rutgers, stats are: 25AA/24TS/22PAT, oGPA > 3.8, sGPA > 3.9, but how strict are they on AP Credit? My university accepted all of my AP Credit units and I did well in all of my upper divs even though I skipped a lot of the prereq stuff. Advice?
Yes I saw that too, but I had all that AP credit transferred before I even thought about going into Dentistry lol will do, thanks!Well, their website says that they don't accept any AP credits, but you should probably shoot them an e-mail and find out. Something tells me that they will think your application has enough positive qualities.
No offense but I don't they care if you took AP credits before or after you thought about dentistry. But they might make an exception.Yes I saw that too, but I had all that AP credit transferred before I even thought about going into Dentistry lol will do, thanks!
That wasn't really the question...more like how strict are they on enforcing the "no AP Credit allowed" statement.No offense but I don't they care if you took AP credits before or after you thought about dentistry. But they might make an exception.
Its very unlikely they'll make an exception for you. In my experience, admissions is very strict with their requirements and will not count AP credit towards any of the requirements. Your stats are very competitive, but they have enough competitive applicants to be stubborn about these things.That wasn't really the question...more like how strict are they on enforcing the "no AP Credit allowed" statement.
Sent them an email, hopefully they have good news for me! Sucks how although I did use AP credit, I did well in all my upper divs...Boston allows me to use upper divs in place, hopefully Rutgers will allow me to do something similar!Its very unlikely they'll make an exception for you.

Hopefully they will! I just know that usually, they're strict. If they do allow you to apply, definitely check the program out and send in an app! You'll definitely have a good chance at getting an interview and I (totally biased) think it's a great place! Best of luck!Sent them an email, hopefully they have good news for me!

I don't even know how that relates to what I saidThat wasn't really the question...more like how strict are they on enforcing the "no AP Credit allowed" statement.
Do you think it would be the same for Chem and Bio? I emailed them already but since it's the weekend...Hopefully I will get a reply tomorrow morning.I e-mail Rutgers about my AP physics. They told me I could take whatever upper-level physics with lab.
If they made the exception for physics they'll probably make the exception for bio and chem if you can prove that you can handle college level bio and chem. Hope they reply soon! Good luckDo you think it would be the same for Chem and Bio? I emailed them already but since it's the weekend...Hopefully I will get a reply tomorrow morning.
