Transfer Students in Undergraduate Programs


Rutgers School of Nursing does not currently accept external transfer students.

Students wishing to transfer from another Rutgers University school should consult the School-to-School website.

Students who transfer from other institutions or who, while matriculated at the School of Nursing, receive approval to take courses at other institutions (look under registrar for second-degree students or undergraduate program forms), may receive degree credit for academic courses with a grade of C or better. Transfer or matriculated students at the School of Nursing who are approved to take the nursing major courses Pathophysiology, Nutrition, Life Span, Developmental Psychology, and Interpersonal Communications at another academic institution will only receive credit with a grade of C+ or better.

Courses without a School of Nursing/Rutgers University equivalent will be reviewed on a course-by-course basis. The School of Nursing does not transfer credit for courses passed by examination at other institutions. Courses that were not offered in a traditional classroom format (for example, independent studies, internships, fieldwork, etc.) are typically not awarded transfer credit. Extension, professional, military, and technical training and continuing education courses typically have informal or no prerequisites and are designed to provide discrete, targeted knowledge rather than being a part of a broader liberal arts curriculum. As such, many of these courses are not awarded credit in the School of Nursing unless they are clearly equivalent to courses offered by the School of Nursing.

Science courses offered online as well as Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), including those taught through Coursera, are not transferable to the School of Nursing. Transfer credits and grades from institutions other than Rutgers University are not included in the cumulative grade-point average.
