A student who has transferred from another institution may
receive degree credit only for those courses that are equivalent in content and
credit to courses in the Rutgers curriculum and passed with the equivalent of a
Rutgers grade of C or better. Courses at New Jersey community colleges that are
equivalent to Rutgers University courses can be found at http://www.njtransfer.org.
Transfer for professional pharmacy courses will only be
accepted from institutions accredited by the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy
Education (ACPE). Such courses must be reviewed and approved by the appropriate
department at the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy. Current students should
consult with the Office of Academic Services in William Levine Hall, Room 277A/B,
before registering for another course at another university. Students
attempting to transfer from the professional years of another pharmacy school
should be aware that due to differences in curricular requirements and
sequencing among pharmacy schools, placement into the same professional year
may not be possible and graduation may take one or more additional semesters.
Transfer credit from other institutions is never included in
the student's cumulative grade-point average at Rutgers. This regulation
applies both to transfer credit granted at the time of admission to the Ernest
Mario School of Pharmacy and to any summer or special work taken at other
institutions while the student is a candidate for a Rutgers degree. Transfer
credit is never given for correspondence courses of any kind. Whether or not
transfer credit is requested, the school requires an official transcript of all
work done by a student at any other institution of higher learning.
