Under New Jersey state law, certain approved courses in high school may be taken for college credit. Students should consult with an adviser to determine if these courses qualify for credit at Mason Gross School of the Arts.
New Jersey Community College credit earned while the student is in high school, courses taken at the high school and recorded on a college transcript, or courses taken the summer prior to matriculation at Rutgers may be submitted for credit transfer with an official college transcript. Courses taken while in high school at New Jersey Community Colleges may have Rutgers equivalents in njtransfer.org, but they may only transfer as elective credit or may not transfer at all. In these cases, students are advised to submit an official transcript, course description, and syllabus to their major adviser for evaluation.
Dual Enrollment Credit
Under New Jersey state law, certain approved courses in high school may be taken for college credit. An official college transcript is required to have credit for these courses applied to their Rutgers transcript. Students should consult with an adviser to determine if the courses taken qualify for credit at Mason Gross. Students may earn Expository Writing credit if they complete an equivalent writing course through an official dual enrollment program while in high school at a New Jersey Community College or at another New Jersey State public college or university.
