Students who hold a credential equivalent to the
baccalaureate degree in the United States from an accredited institution may
pursue a second bachelor's degree at the School of Arts and Sciences (SAS).
Second-degree candidates must complete the following requirements:
-
A minimum of 30 credits at Rutgers University–New Brunswick beyond those applied to
the initial degree
-
All requirements for a new major
-
The
SAS Core Curriculum
Students may apply approved coursework completed during the
first degree towards the Areas of Inquiry and Cognitive Skills and Processes
components of the Core Curriculum. However, all second
degree candidates must complete at least the 21st Century Challenges Learning
Goals and one Revision- or Discipline-Based Writing and Communication course at
Rutgers-New Brunswick as part of the second degree; courses taken as part of the first degree cannot be used to
satisfy these requirements.
Two baccalaureate degrees may not be
earned concurrently except through approved dual-degree programs, such as that
between SAS and the School of Engineering. Students who complete multiple
majors earn a single bachelor's degree.
