Did anyone hear from Rutgers already? I saw an acceptance on gradcafe today, but on the portal page my application just says its submitted, not even under review.

I was unofficially accepted today. Can PM you with details if you want.

I applied to Rutgers last cycle. The application status remains as "submitted" until they make a decision.

Do they usually admit on a rolling basis rather than waves?

My understanding is it is waves. But keep in mind, Most departments don't finish with their "Top Picks" until mid February. You might still hear good news soon.

Also: note how few people have posted acceptances from rutgers. Either people are hiding, or rutgers isn't done yet. The odds of them filling their entire class already, and only like 2 people saying they got accepted, seems low to me. Gotta get the hope up!

Still haven't heard back from Rutgers. I'm expecting a rejection, but holding out a tiny bit of hope for another wave still.

Mine says that in the portal as well, and I’ve received an official acceptance. I don’t think they update the portal at all after you submit.

I really hope that is the case :) but I see many people are still waiting for their decisions and only two rejections so..

I got admitted on Wednesday and declined it so I think they are definitely still sending out offers.

Hi! I have seen many acceptances and at least 3 rejections from Rutgers math Ph.D. program but I have NOT noticed anyone getting waitlisted yet, here or on GradCafe.
Has anyone been waitlisted and informed of the same by Rutgers? Or has anyone tried reaching them and heard back something that can be of help to us? I have NOT heard anything from them yet and wonder how to interpret this.

I wonder if this is what Rutgers does every year with “probable waitlisted people”?

Same. I have a same situation for other schools. I applied for 13 schools and only have heard back from 3 schools so far. I think it's because my profile is very mediocre. Not too terrible, but just not good enough.

I'm in a similar position... several schools without any update at all. I think it would be nice to at least contact students to let them know they're on the waitlist rather than having to respond to every individual student who asks.

I am pretty sure that I have seen at least 2 rejections on this forum, and at most 5 acceptances yet.
However, it may certainly be possible that they are NOT yet done with sending out all rejections (they may send it in waves, just like U W-M did), in which case one shouldn't "assume" being on their waitlist.

From what I've seen, Rutgers doesn't really send out rejections, they let you know if you've been rejected or not only if you email them for an update. I might be wrong though.

I personally haven't emailed them yet, but I had reached out to someone who had (and got a reply pretty fast). The email address they wrote to was graddir@math.rutgers.edu

Does that suggest that they have a long waitlist? Or, maybe they just cannot tell you for some reason?

Could be either, past years posts suggest that Rutgers generally has a long waitlist. I also asked for more details if possible (roughly where I stand, how many people, etc) and was told that they cannot disclose that information.

I emailed them to ask if there were any updates, was told that there's no change. They also mentioned that accepted students tend to notify them of decisions very close to the 15th, so that's when people are taken off the waitlist (if at all).

Is it not surprising that Rutgers has not been taking people off its waitlist since 11th April (unless there are people who have not reported about such updates on online forums)?
So many people have already declined their offers from Rutgers and it's the 15th of April but no news from Rutgers yet!

Rutgers has had long waitlists in the past so it is possible that people have been accepted that haven't reported it on forums.
However, when I asked for an update yesterday, I was told that there's no change (I was told on the 8th of March that I was on the waitlist) and that the likelihood of an offer is decreasing.
