Advanced Placement



High school seniors who have taken advanced courses may take the College Board Advanced Placement Examinations administered by the College Board. Advanced placement and/or degree credit is awarded for scores of 4 or 5.

All newly admitted first-year students will take Rutgers University's placement tests. Transfer students entering Rutgers without an equivalent English writing course or math course will also be required to take placement tests. Placement test results provide information about course placement.

Students with a Critical Reading SAT score of 600 or higher or an ACT English score of 30 or higher (by the January 2015 test) are exempt from completing the writing portion of the testing and will automatically be placed into Expository Writing or English Composition.

Students who completed the AP exam in English Lang/Comp, English Lit/Comp, or Calculus AB or BC with a score of 4 or 5 in their junior year do not have to complete the placement test in that subject, but must arrange to have the AP scores sent to Rutgers from the College Board. Go to: https://apscore.collegeboard.org/scores.
