Was not notified. Date of "notification" is estimated, unsure of exact date. Did astrophysics for undergrad @ UC Berkeley, strong LORs (one from the Astronomy dept. chair), multicultural background, self supporting student, transfer student from a California community college. No publications, but did over a year of research in cosmology/data science through a postdoctoral fellow working for DESI at the LBNL, and have plenty of extracurriculars under my belt.

Ignore the waitlist. Has anyone heard back from Rutgers' Comp Lit Dept.?

Emailed the graduate program director.

GPA is Master's. invited to apply to Master's program.

Ignore the status. I can't find much information about Rutgers on this website or even on Google. Has anyone heard any news or found a notable website? Please share if you are interested in this program.

Hi everyone, I really like Rutgers and this is my dream program. If you decided not to go, could you please reject Rutgers as soon as you can? Thanks in advance!

"Please don't take this decision as discouragement about your writing. Our program is very small, and we received over 200 applications, which means we've had to turn away many promising applicants. We read your application with great interest, and we truly wish it were possible to accommodate more writers at this time. "
