Students who have earned a baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution of higher education are generally granted credit for equivalent courses in which a grade of C or better has been earned.
Depending on the number of credits earned, transferred, waived, or challenged, the second degree applicant may take up to four semesters to complete the baccalaureate degree in nursing.
The following course requirements may be earned at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, or transferred from another college, waived, or challenged:
25:520:255 Nutrition (3)
25:705:202 Cultural Dimensions of Humans and Their Environment (3)
25:705:223 Trends in Health Care Delivery (3)
25:705:229 Life Span: A Holistic Approach (3)
25:705:233 Human Interactive Processes (3)
Advanced placement examinations may be taken only once. Failure on any advanced placement examination requires the student to take the regular course offering. Criteria for successful completion of examinations are based on College of Nursing grading policy and standardized test passing levels.
An administrative fee is charged for each advanced placement examination.
