Transfer Students


Undergraduate Program

The School of Nursing does not currently accept external transfer students.

Students wishing to transfer from another Rutgers University school should consult the school-to-school website at http://admissions.rutgers.edu/SchoolToSchool.

Graduate Program

The university accepts for credit graduate courses completed at other institutions. Students may apply for transfer credit only after they have been admitted. The School of Nursing will consider applications for transfer of courses if the following stipulations apply:

  1. The student must have earned a B or better in the course being transferred, and neither Pass nor Satisfactory is acceptable.
  2. Normally, any course being transferred must form a part of the student's specialty.
  3. As a rule, the course must have been taken during the immediate five-year period before the student's admission.
In applying for transfer of credit, the student must obtain an official transcript of the course(s) to be transferred and submit a syllabus for the course. The syllabus and the official transcript should be submitted to the graduate program counselor in the Office of Student Services. The graduate program counselor will process the documentation for the appropriate signatures and have the credits applied to the student's transcript if approved.

Ph.D. Program

Doctoral students applying for transfer credits should refer to the Academic Policies and Procedures chapter of the Graduate School-Newark's catalog for information for transfer students.
