I received an email from the NJSP Selection Process Unit advising of the update of Class 159.
I’m sure I’m not the only one to have received this email. I’m confident in saying nearly 1,500 other potential candidates received this email today.
For those who do not know what email I’m talking about this is the email:

Re: NJSP CLASS 159
Still no word back? Few buddies of mine sent their background packets in and haven’t heard a word still. Wondering if that’s normal or if they got the ol boot.
Re: NJSP CLASS 159

Re: NJSP CLASS 159
Now that conditional offers went out for Class 159, does anyone have an idea on when they will be moving on with Class 160?
