(2006-08) What GPA and SAT score do you need to get admission in rutgers?? Any campus?

Answer 1

This is true of the New Brunswick Campus of Rutgers University. Camden and Newark have their own methods which are similar, but are more flexible. Camden and Newark also are a bit easier to get into that the NB campus.

Rutgers admissions uses a grid system to see who gets in, and what kind of scholarships you can get. The components are 1. Class Rank in percenile. i.e. if you graduated 25th in a class of 250 students, your percentile is the 10th percentile. The other compontent is SAT score (total score). The SAT they use is a composite of the best scores for each of the time you take it. So, if you score better on the math one time and better verbal the othr, they take the best ones.

Take any classes you want that you can handle. Class rank means much more than difficulty of course initially. If you are in the top quartile (top 25%) of your class, and have an SAT score of 1800, you are guarunteed in, as long as you apply on time.

Rutgers has rolling admissions, so the earlier you apply, the better your chances. AP classes help a lot in preparing you for college. Take them if you can. You can earn a lot of credit since rutgers takes scores of 4 or 5. I came into Rutgers with 15 credits thanks to AP. If your grades or SAT scores are lower than what I said above, then you will have to show some extra traits to break ties. AP classes are great for that. Also, a well written admissions essay will help. Community service is a huge boost.

Remember, Rutgers has a huge application pool. Grades and SATs are most important. They wont even need to look at the rest of the application if you have good grades and SATs. Good luck, and study hard.


By the way, the only required classes to get into rutgers is that there aren't any. Your high school requirements are enough. Rutgers prefers 4 years of math and science over the standard high school requirement of 3, but again, these are tie breakers if you dont have the grades and SATs.

Answer 2

it varies by college, and those two things are not all that is considered,,,,, so for most colleges , there is not a set score,,,,, i would think if you have a 3 or over GPA,,, and a 1200 and over SAT , you would be in good shape,,,,, any clubs, volunteering,, activities that you did during high school, even if not school related,,, can influence admission,,,,, so can personal letters from teachers, say if you have a lower GPA, perhaps due to freshman/sophomore grades, but then really put in the effort during last year or so,,,,
there are colleges , some very good ones, that really dont consider past history at all, as long as you graduated high school,,,,,,
often,, since the first couple of years are basic courses anyway,,,,,, the scrutiny comes as you approach your junior year of college, that is the point when you are many times accepted into the specific graduate program that you will enter
i suggest you look up online a college you are interested in, most have online sites,,, and contact information
dont misunderstand me, a great GPA and SAT can help open doors, especially at schools which have more applicants then spots available,,,,,, but its not quite as important as it appears,,,,,, and no matter even if you didnt qualify for a certain college which had high standards, you can always do the first two years at pretty much any college, make good grades, then move on to the one you wish

Answer 3

Your GPA is low however your SAT is not dangerous. I'd endorse a semester of neighborhood university or a whole 12 months, WORK HARD, get an outstanding GPA, with an SAT ranking like that the intent in the back of your low GPA are not able to be blamed on stupidity or deficient scan taking advantage...intention for a three.zero or bigger after which attempt to switch.
