Most students who enter University College-New Brunswick previously
attended other universities or colleges. Official transcripts from all
prior educational institutions must be submitted before any decision is
made on admission. Applicants must state on the application form all
previously attended institutions. The omission of such information is
cause for automatic dismissal or denial of transfer credit.
University College ordinarily admits transfer students applying
directly from another institution if the applicant's cumulative
grade-point average is 2.5 or better. Applicants whose cumulative
grade-point average is below 2.5 but above 1.9 may be admitted on
probation or by special admission interview. Ordinarily, applicants
with cumulative grade-point averages of 1.9 or less are not admitted.
Applicants whose previous academic records make admission to the
college questionable must submit all documents in advance in order to
be considered for admission.
Students who have been dismissed
from another institution, including other colleges of Rutgers, for
scholastic reasons, cannot be considered for admission until at least
one year has elapsed since the date of dismissal and they have
completed at least 12 transferable credits with a cumulative
grade-point average of 2.5 or better. Under no circumstances is a
former student readmitted if he or she has been dismissed more than
once from any college at Rutgers University for academic reasons.
