I'd say it depends on the school and what your numbers are. Some schools just don't defer at all while others use it broadly.URMdan wrote:Do I have a good chance of getting accepted after getting deferred?
Why are you considering Rutgers when you got accepted to American?URMdan wrote:The school is Rutgers-Newark.

To be quite frank, I was surprised when I found out I wasn't accepted to RU because I'm from NJ and chose to have more emphasis placed on "non-numerical factors"
How did you "choose" which parts of your app received more weight?URMdan wrote:To be quite frank, I was surprised when I found out I wasn't accepted to RU because I'm from NJ and chose to have more emphasis placed on "non-numerical factors"

I may want to live close to my family, so going $180k+ in debt only to come back to jersey doesn't make sense to me when I can take advantage of cheap in-state tuition.
Um yea, and it's extremely easy to get it too. Even if you live out-of-state all you need to do is show RU proof that you have a 12 month lease signed.FiveSermon wrote:There is an in-state tuition for Rutgers!??URMdan wrote:sanjola wrote:Why are you considering Rutgers when you got accepted to American?URMdan wrote:The school is Rutgers-Newark.

"Rutgers, the state university of New Jersey" I know many people chose Rutgers Camden over Temple/Nova because of the cost because they live on the Jersey side.FiveSermon wrote:
