Credits and Residency


The total number of credits required for graduation is a minimum of 120 credits and can exceed that depending on the student's major program. In no instance may a student graduate with fewer than 120 credits and a cumulative grade-point average of less than 2.0.

The residency requirement varies by program. Transfer students should expect to spend a minimum of two years in the music program. Three years of resident study should be expected in the dance, theater, and visual arts programs. Four years of resident study is expected in the theater acting concentration.

Each candidate for the bachelor's degree must earn a minimum of 30 of the last 42 credits at Rutgers.

For students transferring to the Department of Music at Mason Gross, although course credits for applied music (performance) courses may transfer, the applied music performance level at Mason Gross is determined by placement from the department.
