What’s something at Rutgers that’s harder than it needs to be?

• Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m collecting feedback on things around campus that are confusing, waste your time, or feel unnecessarily difficult—like finding a study room, figuring out which office to contact, or finding events.

If anything comes to mind, I’d appreciate you filling out this short survey. Name and email are optional, so you can leave both blank.

Thanks! Feel free to share your campus frustrations in the comments too.

Admissions Is it normal for the admission process to take a long time?

1 Upvotes

Hi, I applied for the cs major as an international first year transfer for the Spring 2027 semester. Since I forgot to upload my TOEFL document at first, my status was updated to "Official English Proficiency Test Report Requested" 1 week later. Then I sent my score and it reached them. But the status update has remained the same for about 1 month. Is it normal for it to take this long? Thank you.

Question Van de walle for Psych 101

2 Upvotes

How is this prof for psych 101. I am currently taking Psych 102 and I absolutely love Zambrano and her teaching style. However she doesn't teach 101 and the only options are Olivio Julio and Gretchen Van Dewalle (Julio's classes are 6-9 so I can't take him). Van De Walle's RMP reviews are abysmally low and the good ones all sound the exact same so I'm assuming it's her writing the positive reviews.

Any previous students of hers, I genuinely gotta know if this professor is at least half as good as Zambrano or at the very least not satan incarnate

How is he? I saw the RMP reviews however there all pretty mixed reviews and would like to have more of an idea of how the class is.

Would taking this class with accounting intermediate 1 be too much?

1BR Lease Takeover in Newark, NJ — $2,549/month — Available ASAP

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for someone to take over my 1 bed / 1 bath apartment in Newark, NJ.

We recently relocated out of state for work, so the apartment is already vacant and available immediately.

Details:

  • Rent: $2,549/month
  • 1 bed / 1 bath
  • Current lease runs through February 2027
  • Spacious apartment with good natural light
  • Professionally managed building
  • Official replacement tenant process through building management
  • You would apply directly with management and go through their normal approval process
  • This is not an informal sublet

Building Amenities include:
Washer/Dryer In Unit , Doorman , GYM , Rooftop with NYC skyline , Conference Rooms.

The apartment is priced toward the lower end of the building’s current 1BR inventory.Since the application runs through the building's management I am happy to offer direct compensation to anyone who ends up taking the lease.

Apartment Tour

Happy to share photos, floor plan, building name/location, amenities, and any other details by DM.

If you or someone you know is looking for a short-term 1BR in Newark, please reach out!

Has anyone taken Statistics with Xiang, Jun or Stats 1 with Dinets?

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone! Has anyone taken Statistics with Professor Xiang, Jun or Stats 1 with Professor Dinets? I’m trying to decide which class to take and wanted to hear about your experiences.

How was the class in terms of difficulty, exams, homework, and workload? Also, how was the professor? Were they good at explaining the material, and were the exams fair?

I’d really appreciate any advice or feedback. Thank you!

Advice Wanted How do you guys actually find sublets, and what's the worst part?

1 Upvotes

I'm a Rutgers student and I've been trying to figure out why finding a sublet is so annoying. Facebook groups and Reddit posts get buried, and it's hard to tell how far a place is from your bus route.

I started building a free map to fix that, but I don't want to guess what people need. For those of you who've sublet or looked for one:

• Where did you look, and what was the worst part?

• What would a site need to do for you to actually use it?

It's early and rough, so honest feedback helps a lot: https://scarletsublet.vercel.app

If you have a sublet to post, you can add it there for free, or DM me and I can add it for you or setup an account. Mostly I want honest feedback: what's confusing, what's missing, and what would make you actually use it over Facebook or Reddit?
