Entrance Examinations

Official scores on the Scholastic Assessment Test I (SAT I) of the College Board or on the American College Testing (ACT) Program are required of all candidates, with the exception of those who have been out of high school for two or more years by the time of entrance and transfer candidates (applicants with 12 or more college credits by the time of entrance). Test scores must be sent to Rutgers electronically by the testing agency. Applicants should take the test no later than the December before graduation from secondary school. Students who are not required to submit SAT I or ACT scores may choose to provide them if they believe it will enhance their credentials.

Applications for the SAT I and ACT may be obtained from the secondary school or by calling the College Board or the American College Testing Program. Candidates should have the College Board or the American College Testing Program send only one test score report to Rutgers, using College Board code 2765 or ACT code 2592 when requesting that reports be sent. Test results are automatically sent to all colleges within the university to which the candidate has applied.

The College Board and the American College Testing Program offer special testing arrangements for students with visual, physical, hearing, or learning disabilities. Questions regarding these arrangements may be directed to the College Board or the American College Testing Program.

Subject Tests (SAT II). Candidates applying for admission by examination (see below) must submit scores for three SAT II subject tests of the College Board. Other candidates are not required to take SAT II tests, but may submit scores if they wish.

Pharmacy College Admission Test (PCAT). PCATs are strongly recommended for all transfer applicants to the College of Pharmacy.
