Transfer Credit


Students who complete coursework at other accredited institutions may receive credit for academic courses passed with a grade of "C" or better. The courses must be submitted for approval to the student's advisor through an official transcript. Students submitting transcripts from institutions outside of New Jersey Community Colleges must also provide a course description and a transcript from the other institution and may be asked to provide further materials such as a syllabus. Transfer credits and grades for courses taken outside of Rutgers University are not included in the cumulative GPA.

For more information, please refer to the sections below on the courses for which transfer credit may be allowed, transfer credit limits, and exceptions for credit earned in high school, dual-enrollment credit, math credit, Expository Writing credit, foreign language credit, and major artistic course credit.

Mason Gross does not award credit for:
  • Credit earned at other institutions during a fall or spring semester in which students are currently enrolled in and registered for courses at Rutgers.
  • Subject tests taken through the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) or Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), including those offered through Coursera, even when those courses are offered by units of Rutgers University.
  • Courses passed by examination at other institutions (courses taken online are dealt with by the department in question).
Transfer Credit Limits
Mason Gross sets the following limits on the maximum number of degree credits transferable into the school: no more than 60 credits from two-year institutions, no more than 90 credits from four-year institutions, and no more than 12 of the last 42 credits earned for the degree may be transfer credits. A maximum of 90 credits may be transferred from any combination of two- and four-year institutions.
