Students may satisfy prerequisites and sometimes earn credit by the following methods: (1) individual examinations offered by the academic departments of Rutgers; or (2) the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) offered by the Educational Testing Service, Princeton, NJ 08541. Prior approval by the School of Arts and Sciences and the appropriate academic department is required before seeking credit through examination; approval by the major department also is required for credit in the major field. The awarding of credits through these methods is uncommon and decisions are made on a course-by-course basis.
