A student who has transferred from another accredited institution
receives credit for all courses in which a grade of C (2.000) or better
was received. The courses need not conform to courses offered at either
Cook College or Rutgers provided they are not designated below the 100
(or remedial) level and are recognized as part of a student's
graduation requirements at the college from which the student is
transferring. Grades from such courses are not included in the
student's cumulative grade-point average. This regulation applies both
to transfer credit granted at the time of admission and to any summer
or special courses taken outside of Rutgers while the student is a
candidate for a degree at Cook College.
University regulations require that at least 30 of the last 42 credits must be completed at Rutgers.
Credit will not be granted for courses taken at another institution
during a period of disciplinary suspension from the university.
Students may elect to remove courses taken at Rutgers as
nonmatriculating students while enrolled in high school from the
computation of their degree credits and cumulative grade-point average.
Such courses and grades remain on the student's transcript with an
"E-credit" designation and do not fulfill college or program
requirements.
None of Cook College's programs of study awards
credits on the basis of College Level Entrance Program subject tests
administered by the College Entrance Examination Board. CLEP subject
tests may be reviewed by other university departments for course
equivalency credit.
An official transcript of all course work
taken at other institutions of higher learning is required whether or
not transfer credit is requested. Students should be aware that since
some programs at Cook College include courses that may be unique to the
college, some transfer credits may be accepted as excess unspecified
electives, resulting in the transfer student needing more than the
minimum of 128 credits required for graduation. Matriculated students
wishing to take courses outside of Rutgers must have prior approval
from the Office of Academic and Student Programs.
The credits
and grades for approved courses taken at any division of Rutgers while
matriculating at Cook College (including specific courses taken under
the auspices of consortium agreements with other colleges and
universities) are included in the cumulative grade-point average.
