This five-year program makes
it possible for students to earn a baccalaureate degree from the Newark
College of Arts and Sciences and a master of business administration
degree from Rutgers Business School: Graduate Programs-Newark and New
Brunswick. The program is designed for the highly motivated student
who, at an early stage, has decided to pursue a career in management.
Program requirements are
1. a minimum of 94 undergraduate
credits in liberal arts subjects, including satisfactory completion of
the general requirements of the Newark College of Arts and Sciences;
2. satisfactory completion of an undergraduate major at the Newark
College of Arts and Sciences other than business or accounting;
3. a cumulative grade-point average of 3.0 or better at the Newark
College of Arts and Sciences and a Graduate Management Admissions Test
score in the top quartile.
Careful planning is necessary to
complete the undergraduate requirements specified within a 100-credit
framework. Accordingly, the program is ordinarily open only to students
who matriculate as first-year students at Newark College of Arts and
Sciences or to those who transfer with no more than 30 credits.
Students interested in this program should contact the Office of
Student Affairs during their first year; an official declaration of
intent must be filed during the sophomore year at the Rutgers Business
School: Undergraduate-Newark. Application for admission to the Rutgers
Business School-Graduate Programs is then made during the junior year
according to the procedures outlined in the school's catalog.
(Applications, catalogs, and additional information are available at
the Office of Student Services, Room 115, Engelhard Hall.) Students who
meet at least the minimum qualifications specified above will be
admitted to the Rutgers Business School-Graduate Programs, provided a
timely application for admission is filed and space is available in the
class to which entry is sought.
