Credit for work completed at another accredited institution is evaluated after acceptance to a particular college. As a general rule, students receive credit for courses that are equivalent to Rutgers courses, provided a grade of C or better has been earned. Academic departments also may award credit on the basis of their own proficiency examinations or College Level Examination Program (CLEP) tests of the College Board. See the Academic Policies and Procedures chapter in each college section for further information.
Students attending one of New Jersey`s two-year colleges may access our computerized data information system, known as ARTSYS, at http://www.artsys.rutgers.edu, to obtain detailed information about transferring to Rutgers. Students may determine course requirements for the first two years of each major program of study offered by Rutgers` undergraduate colleges and assess the transfer-ability of courses at their community college.
